Hi All,

I have an older site that was built in Indexhibit, which is .php based. I have placed the folder it in my public_html folder via FTP, and my browser can't seem to access it. Is there a solution to this? I tried calling sonic.net and they are limited in what they can support with. The URL where this content should be accessible is here:

http://sonic.net/~mixmasterdsr/cca

I also tried placing all the files inside the public_html directory, without having it be contained within the project folder, cca.

Let me know if there's a solution to this daunting issue, thanks!

At the moment there is no directory named cca in your public_html folder, so http://sonic.net/~mixmasterdsr/cca will not load because it does not exist. http://sonic.net/~mixmasterdsr/ is accessible but you have php errors that need to be addressed, you see them when you load the page. To remedy that kind of problem you can usually search the web using the error you see to find a solution, then go in and edit your code. Here is a link to a post I found that may be of assistance: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5610 ... odeigniter Good luck!

This isn't much help, sorry. I'm not a programmer. This is a self-contained site that works on the current host, you can see it here: http://dsrstu3.fatcow.com/cca/

All I've done is move the directory over to sonic.net's servers.

If you can create a php file at that host with this code inside:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
I could look at the info it provides and try to change the .htaccess file parameters to possibly get your site to load as is.

Cool, thanks. I just did this. It's called test.php and it's located in that same directory

Sorry, I get a 404 error when attempting to GET http://dsrstu3.fatcow.com/cca/test.php

Sorry for the delay! I created a .htaccess file in your webroot to get the PHP version as close as possible to your other host's instance. Once this was completed the site gives a 500 error. I checked the server logs for any more information that could help but there was no more info. Maybe you have a php programmer friend who could help you poke around?
