[RESOLVED] Moving Server

Post by eddyR3 »

Hey guys, moving server, followed the instructions, but cant seem to find any path information within config.php

Im using v1.11.11

Im getting an error that is related to a wrong path setting on a shared platform hosting package. So im guessing i need to update some paths somewhere, just no idea where to find them!

Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks in advance

Inside of the CMSMS installation path is a directory called "docs"
Look inside of that for the config.php PDF which should show config vars available to set for path and url settings. I think newer versions of the CMS don't set the path information in the config.php file because it does some better auto detection of the path information now.

Don't forget to clear cache of cmsms. If using .htaccess for url rewriting you might have a look at the RewriteBase option.

If using ListitExtended module (LI2) you need to Rescan for Field Definitions.

CGSmartImage module stores 'Image Url Prefix' in the settings that does not change on domain change automatically iirc.

Hey guys thanks for the replies! I managed to figure it out, it was the /tmp dir, i literally copied everything from old site, once i removed the contents on /tmp and remade the cache and templates_c dir's everything worked as it should!

Thanks again!

That's exactly what the 'Clear Cache' button does in CMS Made Simple.
