Thanks Jamie. Will be going to a drupal meetup tonite to try further. Replaced the .htaccess. <br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jun 18, 2012 at 3:11 PM, Jamie Holly <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:hovercrafter@earthlink.net" target="_blank">hovercrafter@earthlink.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I would first check to see if you can access anything without clean
urls (ie: <a href="http://example.com/index.php?q=user" target="_blank">http://example.com/index.php?q=user</a>). If you can, then
replace your .htaccess with a clean one from Drupal. Drupal 7 is
here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://drupalcode.org/project/drupal.git/blob_plain/30d1e719aa5e9a9ad66514078ca3b0975ddadc9c:/.htaccess" target="_blank">http://drupalcode.org/project/drupal.git/blob_plain/30d1e719aa5e9a9ad66514078ca3b0975ddadc9c:/.htaccess</a><br>
<br>
Drupal usually stores your images relative. You can check the file
system settings in admin > configuration > media > file
system. If you inserted them into nodes and that with absolute URLs
then you'll either have to search and replace all the body and
summary fields in MySQL or setup an .htaccess to direct back to the
new folder. I would attempt the MySQL first though to help with
server performance. <br><div class="im">

1. I didn't
want to move
our email from
yahoo so I
started asking
Bluehost how
to go about
doing that.
They said and
I quote<i>
"Changing your
name servers
to Bluehost
would
interrupt your
mail unless
you change
your MX

us to point to
Yahoo before
you change the

went ahead and
made the MX

on our end,
you can change
the
nameservers at
anytime.</i>"<br>
<br>
They also said
(different
dude 10 hours
later).<br>
<i>"You can
change the
hosting of
just the
website to us
by pointing
just the a
record of the
domain to <a href="tel:66.147.244.79" value="+16614724479" target="_blank">66.147.244.79</a>.
This will
change the
domain but not
the mx
entries."</i><br>
2. So I
changed only
the A-Record
from yahoo to
the ip address
mentioned. Not
the NS records
on network
solutions.<br>
3. Then got
the error
mentioned. Got
to home page
but no
further. 500
errors.<br>
4. Looked in
the .htaccess
and saw the
line<br>
RewriteBase
/~polamor1/<br>
I suspect that
this may be
wrong and I
have to
comment this
line out but
due to my
ignorance can
not justify
based on
logic. <br>

thing to do -
make sure that
your computer

the correct<br>
IP. From a
command
window:<br>
<br>
nslookup <a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a><br>
<br>
If the IP is
right then
check your
server error
logs. A 500
error is not<br>
a DNS error.
It actually
comes from a
webserver (see
RFC 2616). As
long<br>
as you are
going to the
right server,
then the big
hint will lie
within<br>
the server's
error logs.<br>
<br>
Also make sure
you have a
CNAME set up:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a>. A
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx<br>
<a href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank">www.example.com</a>. CNAME
<a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a>.<br>
<br>
You need to
CNAME www. to
your A record
or it won't
work since
www. is<br>
viewed as a
subdomain.
This wouldn't
lead to the
error (you
would just<br>
get a server
not found
error - no
HTTP error
codes), but it
does prevent<br>
future
problems of
people who
want to use
the www.<br>

Editing your
hosts file
makes you not
have to wait
for DNS
changes, as
you're telling
your browser
what IP
address it
supposed to be
used. I use it
to see what
happens if I
want a site to
go live but
what to see
the
ramifications
first.<br>
