[consulting] Linux -> Windows transfer :/

[Michael Goldsmith]

Agreed.  First start with clearing your cache tables.  However, I don't
think that will solve the problem, but will hopefully prevent a possible
problem when you get past this step.  I suspect that the issue is with your
Windows/ Apache settings, as you said that you replaced the settings.php
file with a vanilla one, so therefore the issue isn't in your Drupal
install.  Try doing a vanilla install in another directory.  Check that your
hosts file has the domain pointing to 127.0.0.1.  Then check your httpd.conf
file or whatever .conf file you have that deals with vhosts to check that
the vhost declaration is correct.  If all else fails, I can take a look at
it for you.

 

 

Thank you very much for your time and consideration,

Hi Audrius,

 

We've experienced trouble with migrating some of our larger Drupal sites
from server to server and the problems usually came from MySQL. Although I
have no hard data to back me up, I believe that having a large amount of
required data in the DB requires some MySQL tweaking for it to work. I'd
start with the buffer variables.

Hi, all,

Moving D6.14 site with 50+ modules and content from Linux to Windows, both
Apache. Apache, MySQL, PHP (5.2.11) versions are identical or almost
identical. Php is with high memory limits, no op-code caching or any extra
services.  After all the necessary steps see just "cannot display the
webpage" error. MySQL DB imported with the same encoding, just myisam
tables. No multi-server or multi-domain.  Tried to replace settings.php and
.htaccess files with original files - no luck. Apache/php/mysql error logs
doesn't show anything, although, update.php script is accesible and works.
Mod_rewrite enabled and functional.

All the other sites transfered on the same server just work. New Drupal
installations - work. What did I missed?
Have a strong feeling that some very specific to Linux module is causing
troubles.

Any hints? At least something I could google...

Thank you!
