using trasfer in WHM

[Shanta]

I have been attempting to duplicate a group of sites from one server to another.

I have used all the transfer methods expect one. All have failed mostly due to a 0 byte file on the new server.

The site is new so there are no accounts setup.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks
Shanta

Use the Multiple Account Transfer through WHM.

WHM->Transfers->Copy multiple accounts/packages from another server

When utilizing this, make sure that the accounts are not yet created on the destination server. DO NOT INTERFERE WHILE ACCOUNTS ARE TRANSFERING, it will tell you when it starts and when it finishes. Be patient and let it do it's work.

Do you know if somebody on the other server is killing the backup processes? It is possible that the server is overloaded and an admin or script is killing your transfer process on the old server.
