*************Update*************
What happen was my host changed flavours of linux & System architecture during the server relocation.
As a result the path to my user account/webdirectory changed
I adjusted my permissons on mainfile.php,
uploaded & reran the install scripts, cut and pasted the directory/path xoopsinstall told me was correct.
i stopped the xoopsinstall at the last page where it told me there was already data in the DB, pointed my browser at the domain and .....everything works out fine.
xoops rocks, but why did you guys make me solve this one by myself,, my head hurtz....
now i have a headache of a slightly different by the way anyone have any good tips for a dns propogation issue. it seems the root servers have been fighting for the past 3 weeks over our old/new IP address.
sessions of multiple pings to my domains
(start->run "ping
http://www.mydomain.com" result in
session a) alternate between the different IP addresses.
session b) all time out to old address
session c) all resolve to correct address
etc, etc, etc, ad infinitum......
any good suggestion or advice i could pass on to my hosting provider, so i dont have to figure out how to port XOOPS site and content to another server.....
please .....
