ASWM_WillMy employer moved their domain to a new server but wanted to keep the old server up under the 'old.' subdomain so I set that up and did a global replace on all their .htm and .php files.
Stuff like phplist took to this without difficulty, but their wordpress blog wasn't so happy with it.
Then their webmaster told me that she hadn't pulled a backup/XML export, either.
What's happening is that the blog, which is hosted right now on old.domain.tld, keeps redirecting to domain.tld. There's no wordpress blog there, so it was giving 404 errors.
So I ftped the entire wordpress directory over, and now it's giving 500 errors.
I have a functioning install of wordpress ready to receive the old blog if I can figure out how to recover an XML export. I can have the old host do a full restore on the old.domain machine, but the blog still wouldn't work there anyway.
Is this irrecoverable? Or is there some obvious way to rescue their old blog, here?
