Migrating Site

I am attempting to migrate a textpattern install from one domain to another. Both are still with the same hosting company.

I followed this guide http://textbook.textpattern.net/wiki/index.php?title=Moving_Installation_from_one_Host_to_Another
and continued to get errors when i tried to import the sql dump. So I contacted the hosting company and they copied the database for me.

Then I changed the config.php file accordingly to direct to the new DB. After doing such I got the following message <code>Database unavailable.</code>

I am unsure how to proceed from here. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Migrating Site

View the html-source code when you get “Database unvailable”, it will have the detailed error message. It’s likely that your db-connection details are incorrect (name of database, server, username, password).
