No input file specified.

GoDaddy recently moved my site to a new server. After updating the IP address and A Record, I was able to got the site back online. However, now when trying to access the Dashboard, I get the following message: "No input file specified." I've seen numerous posts on this topic, but no real solutions - plus some of them appear to be dated. Any suggestions for a quick fix?

Thanks.

I had the same problem with my hosting company changing something (OpenHost) without telling me. in the end i just went into the Concrete5 dashboard and clicked "Sitewide Settings" on the left menu. and then unticked "pretty URLS" and ticked "disable cache" and the "No input file specified" problem went away.. problem solved.

I wouldn't say that's solving the problem.

There are several variations of the rule in .htaccess files, that can change depending on the host setup.
RewriteRule . index.php [L]  # recommended by concrete5
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
RewriteRule .* index.php [L]
and more.

It can also depend on php.ini settings, virtual host configurations etc. I'd ask your host about it...
