I just migrated to a new host and would like to do some preliminary testing to make certain that everything will function correctly before pointing the domain over to the new host. Right now the new host seems to be serving the content correctly and all of the database connections are working.
When I go to the control panel everything looks normal. When I login it just stays on the same CP login page. This same behavior occurs if I enter correct login information or false login information (no error is displayed when incorrect login information is entered).
The site is with media temple and the web address to the site is mysite.com.s1234.gridserver.com where mysite.com = the domain of the site I’m working with and the s1234 is my server with mt. This site is not the main domain that my account is registered with but it is a secondary domain in that account.
I’ve been looking through the forums for help but I’m still stuck. In particular I’ve followed some of the advice on this thread http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/186986/.
So far I’ve tried to accessing with chrome and firefox (mac) with resetting clearing the cache and cookies. nothing.
my current setup on the config file file is:
$config['cp_url'] = "mysite.com.s123456.gridserver.com/system/index.php";
$config['cookie_prefix'] = "";
$config['cookie_path'] = "";I’m not sure where to go from here or if there are any other paths that I should try to change manually.
Thanks for your help.
