404 error

Hello everyone,

I recently changed servers from a US based redhat with webmin, to a Belgian based CentOS with Plesk.

I changed over all my websites, some of them running CMSMS, without problems, except for one.

http://www.genebanc.eu/ is running CMSMS (0.13 Canary version 19), but the site gives an 404 error "The requested URL was not found on this server." when browsing to the index.php file.

i also changed the config file to point to the right directoreis, which are different on PLesk vs. Webmin

The index file is there, and so are all the other necessary files and the database is also fully copied over without any issues, but I can't get the site to run.

Has anyone  had the same problem when copying over a website running CMS to a new machine?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

ps: the admin panel works fine, only the site won't show...

The error for http://www.genebanc.eu/index.php is generated from CMSMS lib/misc.functions.php
The error for http://www.genebanc.eu/index.html is generated from the WebServer.

Hello,

what about trying first to host some .html static files ? When it works, the webserver will be ready for PHP.
Have you checked files access rights ?
You can also regenerate the config.php by rerunning the installer without creating the database objects.

BTW you are trying to run a way too old version (pre 1.0, pre 1.1). You should first upgrade, then move.
