I would like to know if it's possible to download/get a Joomla website without ftp or phpmyadmin.
I have got super user account however I am having problems with an old developer. I want to get the website and move it to a new server.
Are there extensions to do this?
Thanks
If you have Admin Acces try using Akeeba
Akeeba Backup
You can backup your site and easily put in another server using Akeeba Kickstart
Akeeba Kickstart
There are some third-party solutions for back-up that are listed in the Joomla Extension Directory at joomla.org. You would need access to the Joomla admin to install them. But in order to move it anywhere else, you are going to need access to create a new MySQL database.
My professional recommendation is not to use this method unless you have no other choice though. In case you and others don't know, the preferred method is to create a tar ball of the website and do a mysqldump of the database. Once the files are restored along with the database, the configuration.php file that resides in the root directory of the Joomla installation needs to be edited for the new configuration.

I have a localhost Laravel project I want to deploy with Deployer. Currently I do it manually using an FTP tool and only sync the app, resources folders and seems to work just fine.
I want to use Deployer or some other tool I can run from terminal to sync or upload new files to the server.
Can someone help with a recipe or advice?
Do I need rsync setup using deployer or is there a way to do it without recipe/rsync.php?
Here are the steps I want configured(for now):
connect to the server, I have ssh access and I can probably configure a key
setup the 2 3 folders I want to sync, as well as files that need to be ignored.
These seem like simple tasks but for some reason I have a hard time setting them up.
Thank you
I don't know if this questions is still pending for answer, but one alternative is using some versioning tool like git, you only watch some folders and ignore the remaining. and with the basic recipe you can deploy a github/gilab/bitbucket project.

I'm currently developing an OctoberCMS website on VirtualBox using ScotchBox.
I've bought a new machine and I want to transfer my work there. I'm trying to find a way to completely/identically clone my VMbox to that PC, but to no avail, I'm still stuck with that.
Now, I'm thinking to just clone my current OctoberCMS development environment. Is there a way to clone/duplicate my OctoberCMS app to another ScotchBox? Because, I do not want to re-setup everything from the start all over again. I've already done a few things and it will be a waste of time to copy and paste them again.
What I want to happen is to clone my current OctoberCMS to another PC as if I was just working on my old PC, is it possible?
What I'm thinking is of course, I need to dump my database, and I'm thinking of zipping my OctoberCMS directory. But I do think that there's an official/recommended way of doing it?
By the way, my Box is using folder sync, so my actual OctoberCMS files are located on my host machine.
Thank you for your answers!
Just do it,
its just fine everything is working on relative urls and relative path so you don't need to worry about it,
its pages are almost flat files so they will come with copy paste :) so no issue there.
even during setup process it just copy zip files from server and paste on local and unzip it.
so just take backup/dump database and setup in new machine.
zip your entire October cms and unzip it to new machine.
then edit config/database.php for correct user-name and password
then you are done :)
I do same for most of the time and its working just fine trust me.
if you find any other difficulties just write comment.

This is probably really simply and obvious, but I'm not very familiar with Filezilla and can't afford a mistake.
I need to copy a file from the server to my desktop without actually removing it from the server - the live site needs to remain live as it currently stands. There is no "Copy" option, so I'm wondering if "Download" is the option I need to use.. but I need to ensure that "Downloading" the files will not actually remove them from the server.
Basically, I need to save a copy of the site without actually disturbing or disrupting it online.
Open fileZilla, Connect to your server, you will see Remote Site and Local site. Navigate to your desktop on local site window( this will change the location where the file will be downloaded). Double click/(right click and select download) on the file you want to download on the remote site window.
Selecting "Download" or doubleclicking the file will not delete it from the server.
Try to select the folder or the file, and drop it on your desktop folder on the left side !
It should be good !

I am trying to move my local Magento site to my Live server. (MAMP to cPanel)
To do this I have exported the database, etc and all those steps are fine.
However when I copy my local Magento files from Application/MAMP/htdocs to my FTP client (cyberduck) and choose to overwrite the existing Magento files, to ensure that all my local updates will be moved to the live site, it takes hours to overwrite and then says it has failed!
Does anybody know if I am doing this step correctly, or is there a different way to get my Magento files from my Local site to my Live site.
The fast way is to upload a zip file and then unzip this file in your LIVE server if you have shell access.

I just migrated a Joomla website from one server to another, copied all the files, imported the db and changed the db parameters in the configuration.php file. But now the Joomla site just shows a blank page (not just admin page, front page too!). All the files are present and the import to the db was succesful.
This is the address: http://astrorama.nl/joomla
This is probably due to a PHP or webserver error when executing your code. You may want to see if your web host offers an error log to view. Usually these "white screens of death" are due to either permissions or ownership problems on the files that have been uploaded, but for verification purposes, check the (usually Apache) error logs.
