didhavn Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 Hey all. I ran into a strange problem. I am using the module Export Site Profile to migrate from one server to another. I did this before and everything worked fine. With this page, I had a strange problem. The installation with the site-profile worked fine (except that I had to uncomment the "RewriteBase /" in htaccess to get to admin). The installed site modules (I installed most of them using ModulesManager) have been missing at first but got installed after refreshing the modules (Navbar: Modules -> Refresh). But once the modules are installed, I can not edit the Home-Page (page id=1, so root of pagetree) anymore. In firefox I get a blank page, Chrome at least shows a 500 Error. All other pages are editable as before, only Home stopped working. Does anyone of you has an idea what is happening there? Thanks a lot!!
didhavn Posted May 12, 2016 Author Posted May 12, 2016 It seems like nobody before had this strange kind of error. Maybe somebody can think of a possible source of problem, if it might be eg a htaccess problem (which I doubt because there is no such rule that could affect that e.g. example.com/admin/page/edit/?id=2 is working but example.com/admin/page/edit/?id=1 not)? Or if it might be a user-id problem that I can look for in the database directly? Thanks a lot
Robin S Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 I'm not sure what would cause the error you're getting, but something you could try is migrating without using the Export Site Profile module. My normal procedure is: Export the database using PhpMyAdmin on the old host ZIP all the files on the old host, download ZIP Create a new empty database on the new host and import the database export from step 1 Upload and extract the ZIP on the new host Edit config.php to change database name/password if necessary
