Images and pages not found after moving servers

Post by ormupbeat »

After migrating my CMS Made Simple site to a new server, I encountered an issue where some images are missing, and only the homepage loads correctly. All other pages return a 404 error when accessed, displaying the following message:

Not Found
The requested URL /location.html was not found on this server. :-\ :-\

Additionally, an attempt to use an ErrorDocument resulted in another 404 Not Found error.

How can I resolve this issue?

It sounds like pretty urls are enabled but not set up correctly. Check your .htaccess to make sure it has the rewriting rules (often the . files get missed when migrating). Compare it to the sample file "htaccess.txt" in the docs folder.
