How to transfer script to new server? It's easy with System - Pack / Transfer tool.

1. In the domain root directory of new server create folder 'crtr' and chmod it to 777.
Also you need create empty database (the name and user and password may be different).
2. Go to System - Update and click Update current version files.
3. Go to System - BackUp and click BackUp Database. Remember the name of last backup file.
4. Go to System - Pack/Transfer. Choose the last backup file (from chapter 3), than click Create paсkage to transfer.
5. Copy two files (archive and transfer) to new server in the 'crtr' directory.
Please, copy files by FTP only, don't use fetch or wget. Also you can use form on the bottom to copy files.
5. Open hosts file on your local PC and put new IP for your site temporarily.
6. Restart your browser and go to http://domain.com/crtr/transfer.php Follow the instructions and restore your CJ. That's All.
7. Transfer the rotator, pages etc. Login to admin area then check your script (click and check in and out work).
After it change or edit name servers to replace your site location (and edit your hosts file back).
