error in moving a site

[Frank Vèssia]

I moved a site from one domain to another copying all files.

Now when i create a page o trying to edit one i get this error:

DirectoryIterator::__construct(/public_html/site/assets/cache/Page/6395/) [directoryiterator.--construct]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory

it seems a dir permissions but i checked and i have all to 777

Ok, my fault, i was checking the folder permissions on old website directories and not in the new  ;D

Since it looks like you have some cached pages, another thing you might want to do when moving a site is to clear the cache. You can do it before or after, but probably do it before just so you are transferring fewer files. Go to Admin > Modules > Page Render > and click on the "clear cache" checkbox, and submit.

This can be especially useful when moving a site from one path to another (like subdirectory to root), because cached pages might temporarily be looking for external assets like CSS and JS files in the wrong directory. So if you ever transfer a site and see your homepage show up with no stylesheets or images, go in and clear that cache and you'll be set. Another way to clear the cache is:

rm -rf ./site/assets/cache/Page/*

But I always get a little nervous with anything involving an "rm -rf" (one stray character could wipe out everything) so I usually do it from the admin.
