Changing base URL
Permalink
i installed concrete 5 in a directory called concrete5 in the root of my server using a temporary domain name as the base url.
i have created the site and now wanted to have a different domain point to the installation.
i assumed that I just changed the base url in the site config but that did not work then I added the code
define('REDIRECT_TO_BASE_URL', false);
and changed the base url back to the temp domain - still no joy
however when I changed the DIR REL in site.php from
to
It works fine the new domain loads the site but I cant edit the site as I get this error message below when I go to edit a page
*******
Multiple Choices
The document name you requested (/index.php) could not be found on this server. However, we found documents with names similar to the one you requested.
*******
Now if I try and load the site from the base url
www.www.tempdomain.com/concrete5...
I get this error message

No page could be found at this address.

I have read a lot of posts and i am obviously missing something simple here.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
