Content not showing after moving site to server

Hello there,

I recently tried to move a potion of the site I'm developing to a live server, however none of the content seems to be showing?

I'm using MAMP to develop the site locally. I exported the database then imported it onto the server using phpMyAdmin. All the files were uploaded using FTP client I then changed the config file to suit the new database credentials etc.

For some reason, I can access all the content on the admin interface etc, change it... Just can't get the content to actually show up on the website lol.

I'm sure it's something simples I've missed but can't seem to figure it out???

Were you developing in a subfolder locally? If so you will need to go into each page and fix your file paths.

Hi Rachel,

I wasn't developing in a subfolder locally. I've checked my page paths on the page settings and they all show / root location.

Here is my local dev diagnostics in case that helps

If you View Source on a page containing Perch content can you see Perch tags and the Perch runtime?

Yeah thats right, the tags and runtime are shown on the page.

Something to do with the .htaccess file I presume, not parsing the page as PHP?

I have the following command on the file AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html

Which is placed with the root directory.

Is there something else I'm missing?

Thanks for your help.

Thanks Rachel,

Got it working. I had to change the htaccess command to the following statement to make it work

AddHandler fcgid-script .html FCGIWrapper /usr/local/cpanel/cgi-sys/php5 .html

Awesome product and excellent support!
