• Hello,

    I’ve just moved a wordpress blog from one FreeBSD server to another using the instructions here:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress

    I’m getting this error:

    Couldn’t write to: Couldn’t write to: ./wp-content/cache/wp-cache-3ee5a8899bacb37e214a3f7eaba4f8c9.html

    I looked at this thread:

    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/67035?replies=15

    But I didn’t understand how the issue was resolved, and it doesn’t seem to apply to my issue as I’m installing on BSD.

    I have searched through the support archives and on the web, and I haven’t been able to find an answer.

    Here are the steps I took in moving the blog:

    . exported db using instructions from wp site
    . saved backup as status.qsl in c:\temp
    . zipped up ‘status’ dir in site to status.tgz
    . changed owner of status.tgz to [myuser:mygroup]
    . moved backup to status.before-uri-change.tgz
    . went into Administration > Options > General panel and changed WordPress address (URI) and Blog address(URI): to new site
    . clicked save options and got redirected to new site
    . archived status dir as status.tgz
    . restored site from status.before-uri-change.tgz
    . copied status.tgz to new site
    . extracted status folder at new site in apps folder
    . modified wp-config.php to use correct db connection settings
    . renamed wp-content/cache to wp-content/cache.bak
    . created new folder ‘cache’ in wp-content
    . uploaded db backup status.sql to new site
    . copied status.sql backup in new site to status.sql.bak
    . replaced all instances of old URL with new URL in db export
    . dropped all tables from target db to prepare for injection of migrated data
    . perl -pi -e ‘s#DEFAULT CHARSET\=latin1##’ status.sql to remove default charset entries in db
    . perl -pi -e ‘s#ENGINE\=MyISAM##’ status.sql to remove ‘engine’ entries from db
    . imported tables into database using mysql command line client
    . followed instructions in http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions to set permissions to 777 for wp-content directory
    . set permissions to 666 for .htaccess in main wp directory

    Can someone please help me to find out how to fix this?
