[resolved] Internal Server Error after setting up new domain (4 posts)

    Hi...

    I set up a WP site at http://mydomain.com/newdomain.

    I purchased newdomain.com, and pointed it to mydomain.com/newdomain.

    I have been attempting to alter the WP address and Site address in General Settings, but evidently not correctly -- now getting an internal server error, even when I reset the General settings back to their original ones.

    Then site is still there, the db is OK, but I can't connect.

    Any help to piece this back together and start again would be more than appreciated. :)

    Thanks esmi -- updated config.com with old addresses -- when I try to access the old mydomain.com/newdomain I get a sort of css-less site, and an Internal Server Error if I click on any link.

    May have the server just restore everything, but I'd like to understand what's not working. Maybe I should check the databases themselves....

    Changed names back to originals in wp_options tables in the home and siteurl fields. Site is now accessible as is wp-admin.

    Back to One -- thanks!
