    Moving a website to a new domain

    I have recently acquired a website built with umbraco. - I have never used the platform before and having moved the website over to my server/ hosting I am encountering issues with the .css and java script loading.

    The website is www.fredholidays.co.uk

    You will see the HTML loads but is not styled. - My testing highlights that css will load fine in the route directory.

    i.e. http://www.fredholidays.co.uk/Site.css

    but the same file will not load in the subdirectory where the core .css files are.

    i.e. http://www.fredholidays.co.uk/static/css/Site.css

    Also - if I place an HTML file in /static/css/ it will not load and if I place an image and try to recall that I get an HTTP Error 500


    Can anyone help with this please?

    Thanks.

    I don't think this is a Umbraco related problem, because these are all static files you are talking about.

    What is the error you are seeing ?

    Hi Dave, - We are not seeing any errors - the site simply will not render correctly.

    Take a look www.fredholidays.co.uk ......

    I do agree, possibly nothing to do with the CMS directly, but perhaps someone has experinces the same server setup issues I'm assuming it relates too?

    Thanks,
    Shane

    Are you sure this is a umbraco site ?

    Normally css files will be placed in a css folder in the root when using umbraco.

    Also when I try to call the backend  :http://www.fredholidays.co.uk/umbraco/ i get a 404 page

    Definately umbraco - must be using a rewrite of URL's which I guess is possibly related to the problem.

    www.fredholidays.co.uk/umbraco/umbraco.aspx

    Nightmare!

    Hi Shane

    Firstly - I have no answers, but a suggestion.

    What hosting are you using?

    Have a look at this thread

    http://our.umbraco.org/forum/getting-started/installing-umbraco/40048-Configure-Umbraco-to-store-files-in-one-URL-path

    Could it be that your hosting requires something similar?

    I am only suggesting because of the use of the static folder.

    Sorry if barking up the wrong tree

    Regards

    Gary
