How is your forum broken exactly? Can you post the link to your forum, or at least a screenshot?

I take it that you have updated the config_global.php file with the database info of the new server, otherwise nothing would be loaded at all. 

Have a look at this link too. It might help.

 

I tried that. I have just updated my name servers, I have put all my files into my new ftp details, and also imported my database to the new database, edit the config and change to my new database, and just get an error.

You can configure your web.config like below to display the full error.

<configuration>
<system.webServer>
    <httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" />
    <asp scriptErrorSentToBrowser="true"/>
</system.webServer>
<system.web>
    <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    <compilation debug="true"/>
</system.web>

I can not load your forum at all. Is the propagation completed?

I am in my admincp but whats going on is i can not get the forumidex to pop up, I went to the admin that pop up everything in the acp works its the rest of the board, Most it works as i just tried it.

I got everything working the bad thing is on guest end the profiles are broken, on the members end the topics and main member profile is broken. Everything is a mess and I really don't feel like uploading a fresh copy.

Hi, I am having a somewhat similar problem, I am moving server too however my admin page doesn't work at all. what steps did you take to transfer?
