Ticked off at my wordpress mu install!

[M Bacon]

I changed my server to a dedicated server and now I can't even see my site at all.

Here is the site: http://bloghost.name


The page isn't redirecting properly













Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

Assuming it changed IPs, did you had Wildcard subdomains enabled? (User.site.com)

Yes but it shows the dns entry in WHM.

I found out that I have no database entries or tables in phpmyadmin after transferring the data to the new server as well. I probably will have to reinstall the wordpress mu now...

Hey :)

The same thing with the database happened to me on one of my sites when you moved the server to the dedicated. I've had that happen to my databases so many times over the years during server moves. For some reason on databases with a lot of tables, such as for Wordpress MU installs, forum hosts, etc CPanel's database backup tool fails and doesn't transfer the tables at all during automatic / manual backups or server moves. I can't count on CPanel's backup tools to back up databases with a lot of tables because it always fails.

I think that the best thing to do is to go into php myadmin and export/import the database. Not use the cPanel backup feature unless its for files. You can run a pretty simple shell command in order to restore huge mysql databases rather easily.
