[Solved] Moved forums to different server.

lethal1320.com · February 07, 2009, 04:02:51 PM

Ok, here is the deal, I moved one of my sites to a different server. All went well except for 2 of my forums are no longer accessible. It appears to be accessing the correct link.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Do you get any error?

Are you sure all your paths and logins are correct?
They may have changed at your new host.

Try running "repair_settings.php", you can find it on www.simplemachines.org under downloads: Tools.
You can see crucial settings for your forum there and fix them if incorrect.

Yes, It appears this issue is all, There are lots of people logged in, browsing the site.

I will give the "repair_settings.php" a shot. This wont cause any issues with added mods? This is an extremely modded site.

Ok, "repair_settings.php" did not fix it, Any other suggestions?

Did you click on each link provided in the "suggested" value area. If you do not click on the link it will not reset he value... After running this you will need to reset your themes as well.

Yes I did all that, And considering this is only an issue with 2 out of the 25+ sections, I believe this to be a database issue.

I would try to repair all tables via phpmyadmin and see if that fixes it.

Ok, I tried that. Still no luck.

You run the find any errors in the admincp of the forum also right?

lethal1320.com · February 07, 2009, 04:56:04 PM

Yep, No errors. I am completely stumped!

Tyrsson · February 07, 2009, 04:58:42 PM

I think you will need a pro that specializes in this area... One should post to this topic soon.. Wish I could help more but it is better to wait on a Support specialist that is much more fluent in this area than to make the problem worse.

I'll be patiently waiting.

The 2 boards that are having the issue are, "/forums/index.php?board=15.0" and "/forums/index.php?board=5.0"

Anyone have any ideas?
