In my case I hadn’t disabled all the plugins first. I renamed the plugins directory, copied the default plugins directory to my server and managed to get in. Now I need to add each plugin back and see which one broke my website. * [http://www.nashie.info](http://www.nashie.info) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Problems after moving to new host](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-moving-to-new-host/) * Thread Starter [kellsborojack](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kellsborojack/) * (@kellsborojack) * [18 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-moving-to-new-host/#post-632558) * I had a similar problem after moving my website to a new hosting plan.

My web hosting techies wrote a little script similiar to the one above and it connects to the database. They even changed the password of the user just in case I was doing something wrong. * I thought it might be something to do with the same problem mentioned by jamesdiss but the script doesn’t through any error messages. * I’m really stumped now. And very frustrated. Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total)
