I currently running the Quickstart environment on an Ubuntu setup. Wondering if there is recommended way to migrate a site to the web besides what I believe will work from prior drupal experience.
1) Turn off clean urls
2)Copy all my drupal files onto the web server via FTP
3) Export the database on my local machine then import it onto my web server using either Backup&migrate module or manually with php myadmin
Thank you in advance for any help!
