Hi

Have downloaded BitNami to work on a Drupal site, works fine on local machine but am now trying to migrate it to the host server, to which end have copied the Drupal files across.

I understand that the database also need moving to a database on the host server…I tried to access http://localhost/phpmyadmin…but can’t get further than a login. It doesn’t accept the login for the Drupal site admin, but I have no other…?…sorry complete newbie question here…

 
Avatar taggiles 1 post i was having the same issue, i found this in the readme.txt file, the username is administrator and the password is something that you created. I was able to get to it to work for me after seeing your post.

7. DEFAULT USERNAMES AND PASSWORDS

The Drupal administrative user and password are the ones you set at
installation time.

MySQL admin user is called ‘root’, and its password is the same as the
Drupal administrative user password.

The default MySQL non-root account used to access the database is named
bitnami, and its password is also bitnami.

The phpMyAdmin administrative user is ‘administrator’.

Hi,

The user to access to phpMyAdmin is “administrator” and the password is the same that you set during the installation.

I hope it helps.

Hi again

One more question if I may….I have exported the database from the local machine and imported it into a new database on the host server, changed the settings file to the new username, password and database, and the index page loads….great!…but…the site doesn’t work….all the links return file not found….I don’t really know how to implement Drupal sites is the main problem……any advice much appreciated…..

Thanks Phil

Hi, could you post the some of the wrong links? Maybe it is necessary to change the IP address or the file location.

Hi Beltran
Thanks for your reply….well…I just get the standard broken url page….There’s not much of a site there right now so I’m kinda ashamed to show it……but you can see for yourself….the url address is www.eco-lines.net

Cheers

Phil

Hi,

I have check your site (looks good!) and it seems that the links are ok. It is possible that it is a permissions issue. Could you check the Apache error log?

Cheers.

Hi

Been out of town a few days, but thanks Beltran for the suggestion….. I’ll look into that with the web hosting company, I’m assuming the error log would be on their remote server somewhere…..?

Cheers

Phil

Hi
I have looked at the error logs lodged on the server, they indicate the same as the error page, namely broken url address. Does the problem stems from the directory structure being different for the local site. I glanced at the article about migrating a local site to a server http://drupal.org/node/120627 but wasn’t familiar with the software it talks about, so chose instead to simply copy files across…but I guess it’s not that simple….
For example, when the local site looks for the content page wind-power, it generates a page http://a3/drupal/?q=wind-power or http://a3/drupal/wind-power and the content opens, on the live site it looks for a page http://eco-lines.net/wind-power which it says does not exist. The error log records something like this:
[Sat Aug 22 09:41:13 2009] [error] [client 67.228.88.42] File does not exist: /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/eco-lines.net/httpdocs/wind-power.htm
Read something about vhost, perhaps this is relevant…?
Any suggestion appreciated
Phil

Hi
I see this problem has already been answered by Antonio in ‘My ’live’ site not working correctly’….htaccess file needs amending on upload to remote server. Apologies for the repeat posting

We are glad you find the solution. Thanks for sharing with other bitnami users.
