Step 2: Copy current data to another hard disk or partition

Save all the data files that you want to reuse with Mac OS X Server version 10.3. You can keep them on the same computer, but make sure you place them on a disk or partition that won’t be overwritten when you do the clean 10.3 installation.

Web Configuration Data

Save the directory /etc/httpd/ and all its contents. Also save the file /etc/webperfcache/ webperfcache.conf.

Web Content

Copy web content you want to reuse from:

/Library/Webserver/Documents/

/Library/Webserver/CGI-Executables

Any other location in which it resides

MySQL Data

Mac OS X Server version 10.1 preinstalled MySQL version 3.23. Version 10.3 preinstalls a newer version—version 4.0.

Make copies of your MySQL databases, stored in /var/mysql/, if you want to migrate to version 4.0.

Mail Database

Save the mail database, if you want to reuse it. Its default location is /Library/ AppleMailServer/.

Webmail Data

Mac OS X Server version 10.3 installs a version of SquirrelMail configured to use the mail server running on the local computer. Address books and preferences are stored in /var/db/squirrelmail/data/. You may want to migrate your users’ address books and preferences to that location.

FTP Configuration Files

To migrate your FTP settings, save these configuration files:

In this directory

Save these files

/Library/FTPServer/ftpaccess

/Library/FTPServer/Messages banner.txt welcome.txt limit.txt
