Actinic 4 snapshot problem

[ECM]

Hello,

I am trying to move a site from the computer I am using which has windows 98 on it to a new computer running windows xp pro. When I try to take a snapshot of the site I get an error message which says:

Errors
(File ExportSite.cpp, Line 1225) - There were no registered sites available to take a snapshot from.

I wasn't the one who created this site, I took over for the web designer who did and I am still learning about actinic. Can someone please help me out here by telling me what this error indicates and how do I go about correcting it to make a snapshot to move the site.

Or is there another way of moving the site entirely?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Snapshot in V4 is a little flakey. Your safest bet is to take a copy of Site1 and copy that over instead. Don't forget to copy images over separately if they don't live in the site1 folder

moving site folder

Thank you Jo,

So in other words I can just move the folder of site 1 over to the new computer in the actinic folder? Thanks.

Yep a straight copy should do it, make sure both PCs have the same Version and patch.

I would also take a copy in notepad of the housekeeping/security keys.

ie copy keys from old PC to notepad, after you have copied site1 into new PC, go to housekeeping security and paste the keys in.
