move problem
Permalink
i recently installed c5 5.3.3.1 in a test directory, got the site working as i wanted, then followed the "move" directions i found in the help section. i cleared and disabled the cache, turned off pretty urls, then moved all the folders and files to the new directory. http://www.debtreclaimant.com points to that new directory. so, in config/site.php, i have this:
<?php
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'joyindee_cnc01');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'XXXXXXXXXX');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'joyindee_cnc01');
define('BASE_URL', 'http://www.debtreclaimant.com');
define('DIR_REL',");
define('PASSWORD_SALT', 'XXXXXXXXXXXX');
?>
but i get nothing, not even an error, when i go tohttp://www.debtreclaimant.com. any suggestions?
thanks. jt

uh oh, spoke too soon. when i add /index.php/login tohttp://www.debtreclaimant.com, i get the same blank screen. i don't know where to fix that one. any suggestions? thanks. jt
(cancel that -- i tried again, making no changes, and it went right in. sorry to take up anyone's time!)

ok. after this move, though i can now login and edit, i cannot move to any of the additional pages i created both *before* the move or *after* the move. i get the "page not found" error. it happens even in the edit mode right after i save a page i just added.
i did copy my .htaccess to my root directory, but it still doesn't work. any ideas?
thanks.

once again, the answer was right in front of my eyes. in the dashboard/sitewide settings where you turn on or off pretty url's, the instructions plainly say that if you turn them *on* you need to copy some code to your .htaccess file, and the code is wonderfully provided.
i have so much enjoyed having this entire thread to myself! perhaps the moderator, when he/she quits laughing long enough to consider it, will leave this on just in case other newbies have the same questions. if anything, it does provide a great example of working in solitude and having a wonderful conversation with yourself...

define('DIR_REL',''); is the format in site.php if the website is in the root directory. those are two single quotes, not a double quote, after the comma. the double is no substitute for two singles (surely some guru has already said that). works well now. thanks!
