Help with migrating server - categories disappeared.

[ichini]

I'm attempting to migrate my store over to a new webhost. I don't want to move my domain until the software is up and running on the new server, so I'm working with the server IP.

 

The strange thing is that my categories and products don't display on the index or in admin, and direct links to them give a 404.

 

I've reuploaded the database and the products and categories are all in the database as they should be, just not being pulled to the store.

 

Disabling htaccess file doesn't change anything

 

Turning off SEO URLS doesn't change anything

 

Both old and new server have PHP 5 and Mysql 5

 

mod_rewrite and register_globals are enabled

 

 

https:// 67.225.249.41/ (remove space)

 

Any suggestions? Figuring it has to be my server or my configuration somehow... but I can't figure out how.

 

(Or suggestions on the best place to hire a developer :P )

 

 

This is my configure file.

// Define the webserver and path parameters
// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)
// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
 define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://67.225.249.41'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://67.225.249.41'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('ENABLE_SSL', true); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?
 define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '67.225.249.41');
 define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '67.225.249.41');
 define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
 define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');
 define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');
 define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');
 define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');
 define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');
 define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');
 define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');
 define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');
 define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');
 define('DIR_WS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', 'pub/');
 define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/gesshok3/public_html/');
 define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');
 define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');
// define our database connection
 define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', '***');
 define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '***');
 define('DB_DATABASE', '***');
 define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?
 define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'
?>

Okay, this seemed to solve my problem, and then setting 'switch to default language currency' to true.

Can someone edit and remove my IP link? :)
