    I moved a Wordpress blog ( edit ) to a new server today. My problem is when you click any of the links ( excluding the video link ) it gives an Internal Server Error.

    I transferred the website by creating a backup MSQL data base and applying it to my new install. I didn't create a WXR file which I wish I had. Everything in my dashboard looks OK, blog posts are there and so on.

    I ran across this before but I'm having a brain fart :confused:

    Any ideas?
    Daniel

    Update: Brain fart was bigger than I thought - I just didn't clear my computers cookies,duh.

    Did the domain names change?
    There will be entries regarding the old domain name in the mysql, you will have to replace them with the new domain name.

    Make sure your .htaccess is writable.

    Well Said Geekos, Upload .htaccess file and update your permlink structure in wp-admin.
