Hi. I am trying to migrate the board to VPS for some tests. And I am encountering some issues

I have checked the database seems to connect properly.

The old database has been imported properly as I have seen the tables.

I have no idea what else can be ?

I even pointed the domain name to the VPS with hope that will work.


The old database was from MySQL and the one on VPS is MariaDB, but I believe I did changed the UTF to work.

Chevereto doesn't compress images. But if you have it configured to remove Exif you may experience that the bitmap gets re-generated if your system is not configured to use ExifTool.

You should enable Exiftool if you want lossless Exif metadata removal.

Are you using the VPS variant? (chevereto/vps)

I will have to check that.

I guess this needs be done on my server?

Yes, I have migrated the whole site from shared hosting to VPS.

All sorted now. Had to install rest of application on my server. I think everything works better on VPS than on shared hosting. Should've done this on first place.
