   Hi there,

   I've just moved a blog from my server to a new one.

   I backed up the sql database, changed the settings in wordpress to point to the new domain and downloaded the folder that contains the blog. Then I uploaded the database on the new server using phpMyAdmin, followed by the blog folder. I can now see the blog on the new domain name, however I can't log in - when I go to /wp-admin it comes up with an internal server error and redirects back to my old server.

   I'd really appreciate it if anyone has any idea as to how to solve this.

   Thanks in advance,

   Mike

   I did follow that but on closer inspection found that I could edit the database with textedit.

   Cheers
