I recently shifted my Vbulletin board from one server to another. When i installed the board, it was working perfectly, but aftr transferring the Database on to new server, the whole site is gone blank.. Can any1 help me in this regard plz ???
Did you move the site yourself or did your hosting company do it? Look for a file called in the forum root folder. index.html and change it or delete it. You should have a file index.php Also, did you transfer all files....?
I myself moved it bro. Also, the site was working before transferring the database and also aftr transfer the ACP login page is coming but wen i login, its disappearing. same case with all other pages, BLANK
Man...I'm not sure what it could be. Maybe you first have to install the site in your new host and then transfer your old files to your newly installed ones....
Go to AdminCP > Maintainence & Logs > Rebuilt the forum, threads members posts etc everything from there. If you still have this problem, let me know the URL and I'll happily post the solution here
I installed the new site forst and then transferred the database. Im not able to login in ACP, nothig is working, how can i get in maintenance & Logs ?
So, you installed the forum first, then uploaded the dB again? You shouldn't have done that. It must have been messed. OK. Now, delete the database data and restore it again from the backup. Don't install the FORUM at ANY STAGE.
That is not how you do it, you don't need to make an install! To move a site from one server to another, do the following! - Download Database Dump of Old Server - Download All the VB files via FTP (This will include user avatars and other stuff) - Upload all the VB files on the new server - Restore the Database dump on the new server. - Change the SQL settings in the config.php file - Go to AdminCP > Maintainence & Logs > Rebuild the forum, threads members posts et al from in there. Hope that helps. Abhishek
