You have to determine if the old version of galaxy (galaxylocal.genenetwork.org:8080/) and the new one, if any database changes have occurred between them -- most likely. If not, and you can check, by looking at the hg history changes via the bitbucket website: https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/src

Assuming database has changed, you can upgrade your old galaxy: http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Get%20Galaxy#Keep_your_code_up_to_date start up the instance, upgrade the DB and then dump the database.

Perhaps you can get away without upgrading your old galaxy instance by only importing a few tables (such as users) into the new galaxy DB..but I am not sure. Perhaps someone more familiar with the Galaxy DB can comment on this.

Dear James,

Thanks so much for your info.
Dumping database is a good idea. But the problem is that the two Galaxy are running on different servers, and the Galaxy versions are very different.
Thanks again.

There is not a simple way to do this. You will need to dump the
accounts from your old database and load into the new database. Are
they running the same database server?

Please send questions like this to the galaxy-dev mailing list.
