   i was trying to transfer my site from http://www.websitename.com/wordpress to http://www.websitename.com and i was following this guide http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress

   unfortunately after i transferred the files everytime i go to http://www.websitename.com it gives me a redirect AND a 404 error.

   http://www.fermentingrecords.com

   Not Found
   
   The requested URL /wordpress/ was not found on this server.
   
   Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

   Check the database and make sure that the siteurl and home values reference http://www.fermentingrecords.com correctly. If they don't, change them.

   If they do, try re-saving your permalink structure at Settings/Permalinks. If WordPress cannot automatically edit your .htaccess file, it will provide manual instructions after saving.
