I have copied the mysql database to a new drupal installation also the /default files, image files, /modules, etc
I have altered settings.php to show the login
Now I get 'Site off line' due to technical problems
I'm stuck, what have I missed, what do I need to get the new installation to read the copied server files and database which is the same name. thanks Roger
Did your new installation server support MySQLi ? If not then change settings.php. Make it like this : $db_url = 'mysql://username:password@localhost/databasename';

Roger: I just set up a copy from my web server site to a local site. I didn't realize that the .htaccess file wasn't copied. Perhaps that happened to you. Good luck, Bill

Usually when that happens there's also a message with the error that breaks the site.
Do you see anything on the "site offline" page?
Test out your MySQL installation closely outside of Drupal. A couple weeks a go I fought with a site offline issue that turned out in the end to be a problem with the vm host that MySQL was running on.
