Hunter H. Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 Hey there, Not sure if anyone can help with this, but I moved from an old host to a new host. This involved the following: Changing old domain to new domain Getting copy of old database and uploading to new database Transferring all files and changing the Global Config file The thing is...I can't login now...It gives me a 404 error. I can't even log into ACP. I try but it just loops and forces me to log in again. Anyone want to help?

steve00 Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 How long did you wait for new domain to propergate (can take up to 48 hours, usually less though)
Hunter H. Posted April 15, 2018 Author Posted April 15, 2018 48 hours. It was less for everyone though. We just cleared our cookies and the new domain work just fine. It just won't let us log in. Whenever I click the log in button, it leads me to a 404 error page.
steve00 Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 hmmm ... did you have an .htaccess file in forum root, if so then see if anything there is causing problems
Hunter H. Posted April 15, 2018 Author Posted April 15, 2018 I don't have a .htaccess file in the root folder
steve00 Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 Are you able to view rest of forum with no problems Are you using ssl with old domain details ? Other than already suggersted then am at a loss as to what can be Hopefully someone else may be able to help Have you filled out a support ticket in Client Area ?
Hunter H. Posted April 15, 2018 Author Posted April 15, 2018 1. I can't view anything. Only the main forum. 2. Admin CP had SSL. The forum index attempted to have SSL, but it always said that the connection wasn't secured. 3. Yeah, you and me both. ? Thanks though, you did try your best! 4. I did fill out a ticket, but I was just curious if anyone else experienced this before. I will wait on IPS Staff.
steve00 Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 As mentioned did you have SSL on old domain, if so then will not work on new domain again sorry unable to help
Hunter H. Posted April 15, 2018 Author Posted April 15, 2018 No, SSL wasn't on the domain. Thanks for trying though *Gives a polite bump*
