Transferring to a New Computer

    I have a small DICOM image database that was imported into K-Pacs from a modality, and this worked OK.


    But I now want to transfer that image database to a new computer on which I have installed Kpacs.


    I have copied the DICOM files into a folder on the new computer but cannot find and effective and time efficient way to re-generate the Kpacs system as it operated on the original computer.


    At present they are in a folder called Images and I was wondering if I called that folder Imagebox and pointed K-pacs to that folder if that would help the set up.


    I have looked at Importing but that does not seem to do what is required.


    Please advise the relevant steps to achieve this.


    Thanks

    There are several folder settings that could cause this behavior. Make sure your also copy the "database" folder located in the K-PACS-Server folder of the source system.


    Check that the following folder variables are pointing to your new structures and verify they have the tailing '\'. Also, make sure K-PACS is not running.
    K-PACS.ini

    Code
    ...ImageboxPath=C:\KPacs\Imagebox\  <== your image box folder...DatabasePath=C:\KPacs\K-Pacs-Server\Database\ <== your database folder...


    K-PACS-Server\KPSERVER.txt

    Code
    ...

    ...

    -od = C:\KPacs\Imagebox\ <== your image box folder

    ...
