Move from localhost

I have read all over this forum that in order to move a XOOPS website successfully from localhost to somewhere else, you need to edit mainfile.php. So, that's why I did...I edited the line

define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://localhost');

to

define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://somename');

Now, when I try to browse to http://somename from a computer different from the webserver, the front page loads properly, however I cannot access any of the modules. It says This module does not exist or something like that. Have any of you experienced this and know how to fix this? I'd hate to see XOOPS having problems with multiple domains and/or IPs.

Re: Move from localhost

Try this thread about domains with multiple urls - it's mainly on the subject of domain.com vs http://www.domain.com, but perhaps you can use this.

I tried the patch that was suggested at the link that you mentioned. Now, various modules can be browsed. However, administration of those modules (as well as system administration) still does not work. In the case of the modules, whenever you click on their respective icons on the left in administration page, it says Selected module does not exist. For system administration, it does not save any changes you make.

Hopefully someone out there knows what's going on. I want to fix this before I decide whether to publish my site publicly.

i recently changed hosts and to get things up to speed i had to delete my files in templates_c. this may have nothing to do with your issue, but does not hurt to venture a guess.
