Copy entire website from Adobe CQ in one server to a Adobe CQ on a test server

I used Package Manager to download the content from Adobe CQ5 and imported it to the test server. Also downloaded and uploaded Digital Assets.

The question is how do I get the webpages? After the content was imported I don't see in WCM any pages of the project.

Please ensure that package you downloaded is having filter similar to /content/ [project name].

If not create a new package with this filter. Pages of websites are created under /content path, download it and install at your new server

Hi,

Did you use [1] in order to create your package?

You need to copy the assets and the site from under /content/yourapp You also need to deploy your codebase to your new server.

When you say "how do I get the webpages", what do you mean? Can you not see the imported content in the new aem instance? Can you not use the same content url's by replacing the server name?

Regards,

Opkar

Its seems you need to replicate these users as well. You publish instance should have all required data. Users are store under node /home. Please chk

I imported the users, passed the login with the user. but ....

after the login screen all the other pages are returning 404 error.

I read about Dispatcher , should i really install Apache?

Hi

There is an alternate way to do that instead of package manager you could start your test server, go to crxde then tools and then import site. There specify the url and import full site.

hi Opkar

thank you for responding to me.

I am very new to Adobe CQ. I used Package Exporter to download a zip file was already there, I imported it to the new server.

by meaning that i don't get webpages, means that in CQ5 WCM I don't see the website of the project, only the Geometrics.

 Should I use additional filters to get everything from the website?

I tried that and it copied a web page as a new project but without its children pages.

This means: in the Package manager I found a zip file with the website name and recent date and generated by the admin. I am not an admin. So I thought it is a backup of the website. So I downloaded it and then uploaded to the test server. I didn't create any new package.
