Hi,

I followed all the steps in the transferring servers wiki, but when I try to access my site index, it finds the url but then doesn’t load anything.

The admin.php will not let me login or load fully either - it finds the page but cannot load the proper theme CSS. Upon closer inspection, I found that it is looking at the old URLS (instead of the new domain) for the theme CSS. I have adjusted all of the following variables in my config file already:

$config[‘cp_url’]
$config[‘doc_url’]
$config[‘is_system_on’] = “y”;
$config[‘allow_extensions’] = “y”;
$conf[‘site_url’]
$conf[‘tmpl_file_basepath’]
$conf[‘theme_folder_url’]
$conf[‘theme_folder_path’]

so I am not sure why it is still pulling the old values. There is clearly a path issue here, but I can’t seem to find what I’ve overlooked. Thanks!

Hello Shellster,

I am sorry to hear you are running into this problem.

I would look through your Control Panel for paths that need to be updated as well as looking at the config.php file for any hard coded paths, those would overwrite the Control Panel entries.

Here are a few paths to check.

Admin > General Configuration
    Admin > Channel Administration > Channels
    Admin > Security and Privacy > Captcha Preferences
    Admin > System Administration > Emoticon Preferences
    Content > Files > File Upload Preferences
    Members > Preferences
    Design > Templates > Global Preferences

Please check those out and let me know if that helps.

Cheers,
