I downloaded the whole site and the database following the tutorials on here, zipped my files up to the new host and bigdumped the data base and nothing works
whenever I type in the URL of the site it skips straight to the Install/install.php directory which Is not there anyway????

certainly got me totally beat anyone know or give a hint at what could be going wrong?

Your config table which was configured for your former server and certainly not the new one ... So, step by step :
1st) Go in your DataBase (using PhpMyAdmin or else) and go into ip_config and then adapt the following lines :
server_name
server_port
script_path
(they are page 2 I think, maybe 3). Adapt it to your new server. The first line might be your simple url like that : http://yoursite.com/. The second line might be 80. The third line is where is placed your folder from the root.

2nd) Go check your file config.php (root) and adapt it to your new MySQL server.

It might fix almost everything ... Ah and don't forget to erase the cache ! (go into http://yoursite.com/adm/erc.php and you can do it from here).

Clear all the photo cache in your admin section under photo album

no that wasnt it, I found the solution by moving all the old images from album to album/user which is a directory missing in my old version of ip
thanks anyway.


it's nearly perfect now, apart from a character set discrepancy
