I am attempting to migrate hosts and am having issues migrating from one Drupal instance to another. I have a multi-site install. I am attempting to maintain the files/code as well as databases. I have transferred the files from the instance of Drupal from my old server to the new server. I have exported the databases via phpmyadmin and imported them back in with cli. For some reason the homepages for my sites work but the internal pages do not. When i try to navigate to a page I get The requested URL was not found. I have installed and ran a new instance of drupal 6 (same version) on the new server and it seems to work fine. I assume it is something I am doing wrong with the porting process? Any help greatly appreciated!

Did you transfer the
.htaccessfile(s) too ?Those are “hidden” (their name is starting with a ‘.’), and not shown by default by some FTP transfer software…
(I’ve seen exactly this problem a couple of days ago, and getting the .htaccess from the old server and putting it on the new one saved the day ^^ so maybe you’re having this problem too…)
