<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">I’m trying to bring our live EPrints install over to a staging server to do some work on it, but I’m struggling to do this in an elegant way. What’s the best approach? I tried bringing the archive files down and
repopulating the database; there are also a few core changes to our install in Perl-Lib which need bringing down however most times I pull all these across and restart apache it screws things over. I’m pretty sure I need to tweak some config settings and possibly
run a few things from the command line but I was wondering if anyone could digest the procedure for me or point me in the direction of one if it’s already been written!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
