Issue about vBulletin MySQL backup

I have a backup of my vbulletin website, i am trying to use the backup on another site with a different domain, so when i tried to open my new site it tries to contact the old domain which is down. What should i edit in the backup so that the backup would run under a new domain?

 

you should edit the config.php file, as well the settings in your DB to reflect your current URL.
Just search the DP for the old URL, then you'll find the places you need to change

 

so i should change all the same urls i can find?

 

You will need to change all the instance of your old site to new site in your configuration file as well as in your database.

 

how do i edit my database? i mean in phpMyAdmin bcz its too big and i dont wanna edit the SQL file and upload it again

 

If you do not want to change the data in Database directly then you can change your site URL from your old web site's admincp. Login to your old web site's (using your old web site name) admincp and change the website URL. Hope it will fix your problem.

 

hmm cool idea...surely will try it and let u know

 

you can search in myphpadmin

just search for "youroldurl.com" and replace it.

 

i cant understand how to edit in phpmyadmin...i edit it and then when i comeback to it, its back to the old like...

 

Thanks everyone....Kailash helped me out via PMs
