Uploading to host with issues (GoDaddy)

Permalink
I've developed a site locally and have just uploaded the files to GoDaddy hosting and my site is not loading correctly. It appears that only some files are loading. I'm not sure what's going on or how to troubleshoot it at the moment. Please see the attached image. Any ideas? I don't have any errors to go off of.

Thanks!

could you provide us with a live address?

Also here's a tutorial I wrote a while ago about dealing with C5 on Godaddy

It might not look like it has anything to do with your problem but it might actually help if your problem is due to missing files after uploading them directly, or the wrong setting on php extensions

Thanks. Is it required to upload a zip and unzip it within GoDaddy? I uploaded all the files individually through FileZilla. Maybe some files got corrupted?

My site I'm working on can be found at: http://www.lasertightbeams.com

Alright, it looks like that fixed it. Thanks a lot!

Does anyone have any insight to what needs to be set in the site.php file? Mine looks like this (I took out my username and password info). setting the DB_SERVER to localhost doesn't seem to work.

<?php
define('DB_SERVER', '68.178.138.42');
define('DB_USERNAME', '********');
define('DB_PASSWORD', '********');
define('DB_DATABASE', '********');
define('BASE_URL', 'http://www.lasertightbeams.com');
define('DIR_REL', '');
define('PASSWORD_SALT', '*****');
define('REDIRECT_TO_BASE_URL', 'FALSE');
?>

Should probably redact your Password Salt too. Godaddy doesn't use localhost by default.

Alright sorry to keep this thread going, but does anything know of any solutions of a slow page load time? Does anyone else notice slow page load time on the site below?

I've just enabled cache options and cleared old cache. Does this take time to implement?

Move to a host that uses Cpanel, hostgator.com is very good

request godaddy use a localhost database. That will speed you up about 100x.

Note: some numbers exaggerated for profundity.
