Is my host a turkey? Multiple errors

[Peter Knight]

I'm getting lots of errors on a Processwire site I moved. It's a new host and it's my first time trying their platform.

I'm not sure  if this is a hosting issue or a problem caused by the move.

If I list them below I'd be interested in your thoughts.

Key questions is wether this is a setup issue or simply a shared host with too many sites and not enough resources.

Had a response from the host themselves. Actually, their live chat is pretty helpful.

The server didn't have mod rewrite enabled apparently and that was causing the issues.

I still get a back end error as follows but I can live with that.

Maybe if you delete the PW cache it will fix that too.

Cache + Sessions. It's the thing to do after moving a site.

Yep I forgot to mention the Sessions.
