Migration Issues

Hi Guys,

I just moved my Moodle server from it's temporary workstation to a full server rack, but now all I get when trying to access it is 'Error: Database Connection Failed'

I'm fairly sure that I moved everything that needed to be moved, and I changed the config.php file to work with the new IP address, but it still won't work.

Both the temporary workstation and the new server rack were running Ubuntu 16.04, and Moodle itself is version 3.2.2. Can anyone help me?

Cheers in advance.

You might consider installing a brand new copy of moodle on your server just to see if it works.  If it does, you then might consider importing your temporary moodle into the new moodle.  (Not sure what your skill level is with all of this.)
