Backend works - frontend doesn´t show up

Post by alecsander » Wed May 04, 2011 8:34 am

Can you help me ???
I have used akeeba kickstart to move my site from one domain to another (on the same hosting company).

First, I took the site to my local server and then to the new domain. Backend is then displayed on the new domain and seems to be in order, but frontend will not appear at all!
"Oops! Denna Appears broken. DNS Error - Server CAN NOT BE found."
is the message.

I checked the configuration.php and the paths seem to be right (localhost, database, log_path, tmp_path) for the new domain.

WHAT is it I have missed?
On the domain is a WordPress page in root, with the same database (the hotel has only one) but with a different prefix than the joomla-site. The joomla site is placed in a subfolder.

What is your live_site setting value in the Joomla! configuration file?
Do you have SEF enabled?

Try putting the right URL in live_site, and disabling SEF (at least for now).

Yeeessss. Thank you so much! I´ve been trying får too days now.
It works!
That was exactly what I had missed.

This is what I did -if it could help someone else:
Last page in kickstart-installation:
site name: mysite
site email: email
site email sender: mysite
live site URL: blank
Override tmp and log path: X

I guess the last one was the important one to fill in.

Thank you!
