MAGENTO 2 MIGRATION PROCESS IN UBUNTU

In this blog let us learn how to do Magento 2 Migration process in Ubuntu

First make sure you have required backups from your Magento 2 instance that you want to migrate.

Install the Required Software in New Server

Step 1: Install Apache2

Apache is available in Ubuntu’s default software repositories. For this reason, we’ll start by updating the local package index for the latest changes. We need to install Apache web server. Connect to your server using ssh protocol with root access and run this command:

sudo apt update

sudo apt update
sudo apt install apache2

Once installed, you can check the installed Apache version with the following command:

sudo apache2ctl –v

To enable auto startup for apache, use this command:

systemctl is-enabled apache2

Step 2: Install MySQL and Create Database for Magento2

sudo apt install mysql-server
mysql –u root –p

Alter User

ALTER USER ‘root’@’localhost’ IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY ‘Your_Password’;

Create User

CREATE USER ‘ Your_User’@’localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘ Your_Password ‘;

Permission Option

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO ‘Your_User’@’localhost’ WITH GRANT OPTION;
GRANT permission ON database_name TO ‘user’@’localhost’;

Database Creation

CREATEDATABASE database_name;

Step 3: Install PHP and Required Extensions

As a next step, we shall install PHP. Magento 2.4.4 require PHP 7.4, so we need to install php 8.1 Update your APT repositories.

sudo apt update

Install PHP 8.1 and packages with command:

sudo apt install php8.1 libapache2-mod-php php-mysql

verify your PHP version:

php -v

Install and enable mbstring extension

sudo apt install php7.4-mbstring
sudo phpenmod mbstring

Enable the Apache rewrite module

sudo a2enmod rewrite

Install PHP modules for Magento 2.4.4

sudo apt install php8.1-bcmath php8.1-intl php8.1-soap php8.1-zip php8.1-gd php8.1-json php8.1-curl php8.1-cli php8.1-xml php8.1-xmlrpc php8.1-gmp php8.1-common

Reload Apache for the changes

sudo systemctl reload apache2

Configure php settings

sudo nano path of php.ini

max_execution_time=18000
max_input_time=1800
memory_limit=4G

Save the file. Reload Apache2.

sudo systemctl reload apache2

Step 4: Install and Configure Elasticsearch

sudo apt install openjdk-17-jdk
sudo apt install curl

Import the GPG key for Elasticsearch packages using the following command:

sudo apt install curl sudo curl -sSfL https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch | sudo gpg –no-defaultkeyring –keyring=gnupg-ring:/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/magento.gpg –import

Add Elasticsearch repository to the system using the following command:

sudo sh -c ‘echo “deb https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/7.x/apt stable main” > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elastic-7.x.list’

Install Elasticsearch packages on the system:

sudo apt update sudo apt install elasticsearch

The following commands Start and enable the Elasticsearch service:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable elasticsearch.service
sudo systemctl start elasticsearch.service

Configure Elasticsearch

Editing the main elasticsearch.yml configuration file

sudo nano /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml


node.name: “My First Node”
cluster.name: my-application


network.host: 127.0.0.1
http.port: 9200

If your server only has 1GB of RAM, you must edit this setting.


-Xms256m
-Xmx256m

Save and exit the file. Now start Elasticsearch for the first time:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start elasticsearch.service

Testing Elasticsearch

Test this using curl, the command-line tool for client-side URL transfers. To test the service, make a GET request like this:

curl -X GET ‘http://localhost:9200’

Step 5: Install Composer

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer -o composer-setup.php
sudo php composer-setup.php –install-dir=/usr/bin –filename=composer

Check the composer version.

Composer -V

Composer downgrade & Upgrade command:

composer self-update –1
composer self-update –2

To export database from Old database server using following command

mysqldump –p user –p databasename > backup_filename.sql

Password: Enter Your Password

To Import the database for new DB server for using following command

mysql –p user –p databasename < dbname.sql

Password: Enter Your password

Update the url from DB table

UPDATE core_config_data SET value = ‘https://www.ppppp.com’ WHERE path IN (‘web/secure/base_url’, ‘web/unsecure/base_url’);

To backup the magento files from old server for using zip command

zip –r backupfile_name.zip /var/www/html/filename

Unzip the folder for new server for this command

unzip file.zip destination_folder

Change DocumentRoot To Pub

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf


ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/magento2/pub
ServerName www.website.com
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

Restart Apache for the changes

sudo systemctl restart apache2 php bin/magento indexer:reindex && php bin/magento se:up && php bin/magento se:s:d -f && php bin/magento c:f && php bin/magento module:disable Magento_TwoFactorAuth
