This description works for every
== Prerequisites ==
Check that you Dolibarr version (you will find it onto logon page) is lower or equals to DoliCloud version (In most cases, it should be true because DoliCloud plan offers the last stable version).
If your local version is old, upgrade first locally to same version than DoliCloud.
== Backup your old database ==
First step is to backup your database.
For this, go into menu '''Home - System tools - Backup". Click to generate a backup file (with mysqldump method). This will launch mysqldump command and show you the command.
If you experience problem running this command (for example because your old hosting provider does not allow to run command mysqldump), you can launch the command from any other computer where MySql is installed. For this, run the following command:
<source lang="bash">
mysqldump -h ip_of_old_mysql_server -P port_of_old_mysql_server -u user_database -ppassword_database > mybackupfile.YYYYMMDD.sql
</source>
== Copy content of your document files ==
All uploaded or generated files are stored into the document directory. To know path of this directory, go into menu '''Home - System info - Dolibarr - All parameters'''. Full path where all you files are stored is visible on line with key '''dolibarr_main_data_root'''.
Save this directory and all its content (subdirectories and files).
== Create a DoliCloud instance ==
Go onto www.dolicloud.com and subscribe to create a new instance. Note that creating an instance if free for 15 days.
