Move from one server to another - html not showing

[hummerdad]

Hi,

Newbie here.  I just took over a site for a guy and we had to move his files from his old server to a new.

I have moved the site; the images, database connection, counters, etc all work great.

Issue is that the html is not showing.  When viewing source, I only show some tables.  I have read the docs, but nothing found.

Any ideas?  Here is the temp link: http://www.deepblueonline.com/websites/dynamic%2Dceramic%5Fbiz/dynamic_portfolio/index.php

Thanks

When moving did you get the latest release/upgrade? And if yes, you can try uploading one of the themes that comes with Coppermine.They should work right away. Also make sure that you have no "stray" theme related files in the gallery root.

Thanks for the quick reply.  I tried using their existing files first.  Next, I tried using the latest and greatest downloaded from coppermine - same result.  I would think its a simple PHP issue, but have ruled that out since I have DB connectivity and images are showing.

So now I'm thinking maybe a path issue to a CSS file?  Which file would I verify the theme path?

[Joe Carver]

Path is set in template.html in whichever theme you have selected (you can also use/enter a theme (if it exists) by directly entering (ex.) www./.../yourgalleryname.php?theme=Sample into your browser)

Code Select Expand

<link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/sample/style.css" type="text/css" />

Again, if a theme related or a named template or stylesheet is in the gallery root then you will have issues.

I'm not sure if there are any plugins that could cause what you are seeing. If that is indeed a possibility then the best suggestion is for you to do a little searching in the Support Forum.

thanks i-imagine

I am still at a total loss

I have looked at what you mentioned, everything looks correct.  Here is the code working:

Here is the same code on the new server (only different database was changed):

http://www.deepblueonline.com/websites/dynamic%2Dceramic%5Fbiz/dynamic_portfolio/index.php

Are there styles called from the database?  Is there more than one database connection file?  Thanks again

I'm stuck for a quick answer, but instead of a 404 error (intentional mistype) it returns with.

Database maintenance is currently completing.

The system will resume as normal within a few hours.

Please check back soon.

Compare the "structures" and directory file trees with your unzipped copy of ver. 1.4.24. Look for stray files and complete directories. Search the board to see if there are any undue influences from any plugins you might have and how you could remove them. Double check your /include/config.inc.php file too. Remove/reapply the leftover theme.

Beyond those I'm fresh out of new ideas - Good Luck

Thanks for the pointers, I'll take a look and let you know if anything comes up.

Just out of curiousity. What happens if you a vanilla install? Nothing in it. Just a brand new cpg installation. Does that show a fully functional gallery then or not?
