Hi I had to move a website from one host to another.
First I backedup the db, the created new db on the new server and imorted the tables with content.
I then downloaded the old site, and uploaded it to the new server.

I changed the db info in mysite/_config.php

and when i try to access the website I get this error.

Have i forgot to change something. I think it is ss version 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 .
I cant upgrade to 2.4 I also tried that but they are using gallery modules 0.2.2. and it does not seem to work with ss 2.4

I tried to search the forum, I even tried define('TEMP_FOLDER', dirname(getcwd())."/tmp"); in _config.php but it did not help.
Can anyone help me. If someone can help me I will even pay for it. Because I have been trying for 3 days know.

If you are comfortable doing so, send me either login details for your hosting, or a copy of you website so I can install it on my development server. I will take a look and test it out, and if you feel inclined to make a donation that is up to you, but no pressure.

My email is sean@allthingsweb.co.nz.

The error messages were php warnings which make the pages look ugly. There was also some difficulty moving a large database and some version confusion, but the error messages themselves were hidden by adding

ini_set("display_errors", 0);

into sapphire/main.php at the top of the file under the <?php line. If anyone else stumbles here in future with a similar problem please make sure the messages are not important before you add this line.
