I am transferring UBB from one server to another. I assuming all I have to do is upload all the files, chmod, and change the dirs to PERL and SENDMAIL?

Well in my UBB dir there is a 40mb dir called cache. Do I need to transfer that as well.

Also if I am missing something I am supposed to do while transfering mention it please.

Thanks

Also I am running 6.0 and on the site there is no upgrade option to upgrade from 6.0 to 6.05. What do I do there?

This usually runs into tons of problems. But i'll try to help. First download all of your forum topics(if you want to save them), you do not have to download that 40MB cache.

Reupload good backups to the new server into the respective directories. You'll have to chmod every topic file and directories. Then go into the control panel and rebuild forum stats, member files and those maintence.

You'll have to download 6.05 and rehack(if you've hacked it) and use that. Unless you want to risk using Beyond Compare(i'm not putting it down, but i've had little luck with it). BC compares two files and sees differences in coding.
