Re: Moving a Django website to another server

If you're storing your images in your database (don't) then your db migration should have done it. If you're storing the paths in the database, let's hope they're relative paths to the images. You'll have to copy the images to your new server using the same approaches listed above. One

similar question on the same topic: I used dumpdata/loaddata to move from sqlite to postgres, while it was able to move the relations it didn't get any image, any way I could something similar but including the images? would south be able to do it? On Thu, Jan 31, 2013 at 11:09 AM, John

Re: Moving a Django website to another server
