URGENT: Migration Has Caused Chaos

thesun · 8-10-06, 08:20 PM

My site has been migrated to the new platform and it has been a nightmare for me.

The site (RewardBull.com) shows a lot of errors, and funny characters. It stopped functioning.

I have contacted my site programmer, and he asked:

1. have PowWeb changed versions of PHP or MySQL, and if so, from what and to what?

2. If PowWeb have done anything effecting either the eregi_replace or preg_replace functions in PHP, as those are what are used to convert the {VARIABLES} into actual text.

Please help me out. It is life and death here.

PHP VERSIONS
The PHP version on the legacy server was 4.4.2. The PHP version on the new platform is 4.4.2 or 5.1.4 (you choose which one you want to use in OPS).

NOTE: The default settings in the php.ini file have changed. This might affect your site.

MYSQL VERSIONS
According to the knowledge base (http://www.powweb.com/knowledgebase/...e.bml?kbid=999): "Our servers run MySQL version 4.1.14".

According to phpMyAdmin when I just created a new database and clicked the Administer link, the version of MySQL on the new platform is 4.1.18-standard-log.

MySQL on the legacy server was ver 4.1.11.
