    Clone a Umbraco instance to a sub-domain

    Hi

    I feel like I have been asking a lot of questions recently but I have learnt a lot so thank you.

    I currently have a Umbraco website siting on adomain (http://domain.co.uk) and would like to copy it to to a sub domain (http://sub.domain.co.uk) - In effect I would like to make one a live environment and one a test environment.

    I have created a copy of the Database and copied the file structure and updated the database connection in the web.config. But of course, in typical Umbraco style it wont be this easy :)

    I get the following error when visit the sub domain:

    Server Error in '/' Application.

    Access to the path 'D:\Inetpub\vhosts\sub.domain.co.uk\App_Data\TEMP\PluginCache' is denied.

    The PluginCache has the correct permissions etc, I have cleared it, re-copied etc but no luck.

    I think I am going about it int he wrong way, Is anyone able to advise me the best way to 'clone' a site please?

    Thanks

    Ben

    Hi Ben,

    Usually, you need just remove this folder. Try to stop application pool, remove everything from App_Data folder and run pool again.

    Thanks
