You must also adjust the domain in the project when moving. Have a look at this article:

Looks like I missed that part but I’m unsure what to put in there.
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http://spawnlinux.ddns.net/newsite/wordpress’);
I’d guess but that causes the site to load for a very long time and then say “Oops! That page can’t be found.” I still am confused on where the tabs (pages) go to? There needs to be a landing page of file for the url to work.
also appending wp-admin to the end foes to a login screen and then I get “An error occurred during a connection to spawnlinux.ddns.net.” and I see its trying https ? I so no have a secure test site. I saw this in the qp-login
wp_safe_redirect( ‘https
but changing to wp_safe_redirect( ‘http didnt fix it.
I also read about define(‘FORCE_SSL_ADMIN’, false); but that didnt fix it.

The error message indicates that your web server does not know how to handle the call – probably the .htaccess file that controls access is missing (if you have Apache) OR the configuration in nginx for this. As soon as you get into the backend, you can generate the htaccess file under Settings > Permalinks. I would therefore recommend that you first make sure that you can reach the backend. To do this, you must enter the domain under which your project is running. I think
define('WP_SITEURL','http://spawnlinux.ddns.net/newsite/wordpress');
in the wp-config.php would be correct. I’m currently getting a response with content there, but it’s extremely slow.

yeah I think the server is just slow. I also just restored my DB because I wanted to attempt this again and now I’m getting redirected again. I do have
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http://spawnlinux.ddns.net/newsite/wordpress’);
FYI: this site is adding that prefix, but its the same as you typed.
in my config. So I’m stuck again, with the redirrect. This is just a linux box were I installed wordpress. I copied the .htaccess from the backup, do I need to make my own?
The backend is on my network I can get to it via. 192.168.0.19, but going there also redirrects me.
If by backend you mean the wp admin. I use
http://spawnlinux.ddns.net/newsite/wordpress/wp-admin
this goes to a login, and then it redirects back to the spawnlinux but adds the s. to http. Still can not fix that. Viewing the page source is created all https’s
href=’https://spawnlinux.ddns.net….
from my DB

wow, so my pc is doing this to me? I checked my host file but that is not it. I used another PC and it does not redirrect, but the page is missing something. Also the tabs still go to a none exist location. really confused about that one. Also the wp-admin still wants to put in a https
