Make sure of that - and also that they are reachable under the path given in the settings or fix the path there if the directory structure changed.
So far nothing.
In moving to the new server, I backed up the database using cPanel backups. FTP'ed it to my new server and then used shell to create the new database (because it was too large to do via cPanel or MyPHPadmin). This was successful. People can login and post freely at the new location.
However, no images that are provided by phorum scripts are working. Avatars are broken as well as anything in [img] tags, and all image attachments that are in the message bodies using Mod:Embed_Attachments.
Even now, if I create a NEW post, and try to display an image using any of the 3 methods above, they are broken as indicated by the screen caps I provided above. The debug output tells me that it fetches the URL appropriately, creates a thumbnail successfully, but then when called to display the image it fails.
I am using Mod:Store_Files_to_Disk and have copied the entire directory structure.
The PATHS may have changed, but in both Mod:Store_Files_to_Disk and Mod:Embed_Images these paths are releative anyway, namely:
Where to store files: repository
Cached directory for scaled images: repository/Scaled_Cache
What DID change is that I gave this "domain" it's own account on the new server instead of it being a subdomain of another account on my old server, ie...
was: /home/rlangle/jwtalk/forum
now: /home/jwtalk/forum
So I realize I must have botched something, but all the data is there. It's just a matter of getting it fixed right.
