No Website

dmpeterson · 02-22-2013, 08:40 AM

I've been trying to install a couple of older WordPress sites to my server. They're not more then 2 or 3 years old but when I try to run the sites by typing the address, I see the site load but all I get is a blank screen. Any Ideas?

Maybe it`s a browser issue? Have you tried in different browsers?

dmpeterson · 02-22-2013, 11:11 AM

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I've tried both Firefox and IE. They are also being installed as sub-domains but I don't see why that would make a difference.

Could you provide an URL?

dmpeterson · 02-22-2013, 11:32 AM

http://catinfosite.john3-16hosting.com/

This url will bring up the readme file:

Did you check the logfiles? access.log and error.log from the webserver?

If you still have a working version of your install on another server or account I would recommend using, BackupBuddy - the premiere WordPress backup plugin to backup, restore and move WordPress | iThemes to move the site. Hopefully this helps you out some.

Weird...I check the error log and there are no entries for the site. I check the access log and I have 3 lines of Chinese characters. I don't know

Paste those lines to https://pastee.org/ and post the link here.

This is the request header:

Code:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 18:51:15 GMT
Server: Apache
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.17

Vary: Accept-Encoding
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Length: 20
Keep-Alive: timeout=5, max=17
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

Is there any redirection? The pingback URL is http://cat-info-site.com/xmlrpc.php

Did you change the WP settings to the new URL?

You uploaded the blog to the subdomain, right?

Could you paste the .htacces file please? And the wp-config.php too.

Michael71 · 02-22-2013, 12:04 PM

This is Google translation of your chars: lol

Is some of this text part of the blog?

Did you finish up the admin / installation tasks -- what happens when you go to WordPress › Installation ?

dmpeterson · 02-22-2013, 12:45 PM

I just realized, I imported the old database which contains the site url's. I have to change those. Thanks for the help.
