Hi, I want to move my wordpress blog from 1 server to another server . After importing the existing sql file to the new database Import has been successfully finished, 1773 queries executed. Code (markup): no display is available on the domain name . nothing to be seen . what actually happen ? please help I use this website as a guide http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/restore/
do you mean when accessing to your domain, nothing appears there? Did you check to make sure the configuration file was updated?
Quite right. The config file must match the database setup. But that would not cause a blank screen it would state an error conecting to the database. I would dell all the files and re-upload them. Check the wp-config.php has the right data,and check the new database has the same info. define('DB_NAME', 'putyourdbnamehere'); // The name of the database define('DB_USER', 'usernamehere'); // Your MySQL username define('DB_PASSWORD', 'yourpasswordhere'); // ...and password define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); If it works on your old host and all the specs for your new server can run wordpress there should be no problems transfering the blog. Need any help throw me a pm.
