Changing a Joomla 1.5 hosting to different domain ?

[icebear]

Im trying to move a site from one hosting to another AND the new hosting uses another domain with different name and database password.

I succeded so far to move all files, created the database, imported the database files to the new database.

I made changes in the configuration.php for new site name, databas name and password.

As of now I can see the site as not activated, I see it as if I deactivated the site in Backend.
But there is no login fields, and going to mysite/administrator shows he same result also.

Need some help here ...

This is a configuration.php that belongs to Joomla 1.0.

You might be right, but since I cant get into backend at the moment I was`nt sure.
Maybe a moderator can move the thread to the right Subforum then ?

I still dont know how to solve this !

Mod. Note: Relocated the topic to the J1.0 forum.

What version of php do the new host run?
Joomla 1.0 is not compatible with php 5.3

As I remember 1.0 was needed this to be correct.

Code: Select all

$mosConfig_live_site = 'http://www.mysite.se';

I dont know what version of PHP it runs, but I fixed it now, it was just a typo in the configuration.php

$mosConfig_user = 'mysite;
Needed to be changed to
$mosConfig_user = 'mysite_usr';
