Wp-admin dashboard not working after website migration to another hosting - php

I have migrated my wordpress site from one hosting to another by copying sites files and creating new database. I have correctly updated the database information the the wp-config.php file and the site is running smooth. However i cannot log in in the admin panel. It shows the admin login username and password page but after i submit login it shows the following error
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_site_transient() in /home/content/XXXX/XXXX.com/XXX/wp-includes/update.php on line 466
Help appreciated and thanks in advance.

You should try by re-uploading your wordpress core files.
It means that all files (except wp-content folder , wp-config file) needs to be replaced
with files from a fresh WordPress install.
This will NOT remove any of your information, but it may solve the problem in case any file was corrupted.
Make sure to back-up your data in case of emergency.

Wordpress blank page in localhost

I downloaded the Wordpress Site via FTP, but I can't access in wp-admin, homepage...
If I create a test.html file, show page Blank.
WP_DEBUG is set to TRUE, but not returns a error.
I rename the theme folder, and the plugins folder, but nothing happen, blank page.
If in the index.php file I add this code die(Hello World!); show message, so, it's access to index.php.
It's only happen in localhost, in the production environment it's works fine.
Any solution?
You can follow these steps to get started.
Download the wp-content folder from FTP
Export your MySQL database.(You can find DB name from wp-config.php)
install new WordPress on local
replace the wp-content with your downloaded wp-content
Drop all tables of new WordPress and import your downloaded database on local.
update website URL from wp-option table
update table prefix in wp-config.php file
Now your ready to access the live website on local.
Once you login the website updates the permalinks. I know this process is long but there is no way you get error.
Happy Migration
I can Fix this.
The problem is in the file wp-load.php, I replace this file with another versión wordpress.

Wordpress 404 after manual install

My core wordpress files got hacked because of a plug in. My site started giving malicious redirects.
While trying to edit wp-config.php, my site went fully offline. I tried a full manual reinstall because of this and I needed new core files anyway. My site is still not online. I have the database, database password, and username in wp-config.php. Also, I have everything in the document root for the correct domain. Maybe there is some conflict between the two domains with my host?
Does anybody know what might be causing this 404. I can't get access to the dashboard.
I got a backup before doing anything and I downloaded wp-content. The original database is still available.
I tried an automated install through cpanel with fresh everything and this would not get me to a dashboard.
Well, 404 error is not because you can't connect to your database. You should see Database connection error message if database is the problem. Did you edit .htaccess file maybe? You can try to remove everything there and put default one for Wordpress.
May be your site compromised. Deactivate the plugins using the file manager provided by your host and rename wp-content/plugins to wp-content/plugins-old, also deactivate the theme or rename the wp-admin folder on root directory and then take a try to login. Also turn on the debugger.

Issue accessing local hosted Wordpress site (redirects+other nonsense)

I have ran into quite the issue.
I have been developing a website hosted locally with MAMP. I always used localhost:90/wordpress/ to access the website and it was worked up till today. A few hours ago, I began the process of moving the website from local server to an actual domain. Unfortunately, I wasn't checking URLs and ended up changing some information and working on localhost myPHPadmin panel as opposed to the domain myPHPadmin panel. Long story short, I changed so much before I realized my mistake, then proceed to change even more, and now I am lost and don't know what to do. At this point, I am just trying to get access to my local hosted website so I can start over again.
The issue:
Everytime I goto localhost:90/wordpress, Chrome redirects me to localhost/wordpress and my website doesn't show, it says that the website can't be shown.
I have tried going into my local hosted myPHPadmin panel and changing siteurl and home to both say localhost, but no luck. Interestingly, when I change both to wordpress, it shows an unformatted version of my homepage (Kinda like just straight HTML), with limited images, however if I click any links then it brings me to wordpress/about and it doesn't exist. If I change it to just localhost:90, it shows my unformatted wordpress Page not found page. Can't access wp-admin with any of them.
I have tried using a replace tool recommended in another thread, but searching for localhost and replacing with localhost:90 yielded no results for me. I have also double checked the .htaccess folder and it is correct. I have cleared cookies/cache and still nothing. I am desperate.
Any help is much appreciated.
I am not sure what the issue is here so I am going to shoot in the dark here and hopefully one of these methods will get you out of your predicament. Since you say that you have reverted all the changes you made and still your website is inaccessible, even wp-admin.
You can try doing the following:
Change the siteurl and homeurl links in your PHPmyadmin to localhost:90/wordpress or whatever it was before when your site was running and functional.
In your Wordpress root folder, there is a file called wp-config.php. Open that file and find:
* #package WordPress
*/
Add after:
define('WP_HOME','localhost:90/wordpress');
define('WP_SITEURL','localhost:90/wordpress');
You will replace all localhost:90/wordpress if need be by which I have written in my codes to what the link was before; when the site was functional.
Check the file thoroughly and through Find/Replace function of your favourite text editor for no duplicate entries.
Now try accessing wp-admin. If you still cannot access your wp-admin, take a backup of your current wp-admin folder.
From a fresh Wordpress of the same version as yours, copy the wp-admin folder and replace it with your current wp-admin folder. Now try to access wp-admin again.
If you are able to access it and login, refresh your Permalinks. See if your site is accessbile again after doing these steps.
Update:
Since none of those steps worked for you, try doing the following:
Delete all the Wordpress core files from your localhost:90/wordpress EXCEPT wp-config.php and your wp-content folder.
Now from a fresh Wordpress folder, copy the files and folders EXCEPT wp-config.php file and wp-content folder. Paste them in your localhost:90/wordpress folder.
Try accessing your website now.
Update 2:
Try uploading your Wordpress to your online server and change the values of siteurl and homeurl in your wp-config.php file. We defined the localhost addresses in the file, now you will update those with your domain details.
Take a fresh backup of your database from your localhost and import it into a new database in your online server. Update the homeurl and siteurl in your newly imported database.
Update your wp-config.php with the new database name and username and password of the account you have given all privilages to access the database.
Try accessing wp-admin now.
If successful, update your Permalinks and then try accessing your website.
This will tell us if your localhost is faulty.

WP migration, can't login to WP admin

I was in the middle of migrating a local WP site to a live server and came across a problem.
I edited my WP config file and uploaded it along with the rest of the WP files. I also uploaded the mysql database through phpMyAdmin.
Once i tried to test the site i got an error message "The page isn't redirecting properly". I then, mistakenly, logged in to the admin area and in the Settings > General tab I deleted the localhost part of the URL. Now I'm unable to log back in to the WP admin area.
EDIT
To clarify, my major problem is that i can no longer log in to the wp admin area because of something I've done. The steps i took to get to this point were:
Backed up WP using the BackUpWordpress plugin
Edited back up wp-config file with define('WP_HOME','http://example.com'); define('WP_SITEURL','http://example.com');
Created mySQL database through DreamHost
Changed database info in wp-config file
Uploaded wp files (not including mySQL backup) to my url using Filezilla
Imported mySQL database backup to DreamHost
I then checked the site from my browser, an error message said too many redirects occurred
From the wp admin area i went to Settings > General and deleted the localhost part of the url that was displayed.
I believe it's due to the previous step I'm now unable to access the wp admin area at all.
I need a way of getting back into the admin area
You can also edit those options within phpMyAdmin. Go to wp_options and locate siteurl and home. Make sure the URL matches your site URL.
You can also edit the site URL in your wp-config.php.
Add these lines somewhere above the /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */ line.
define('WP_HOME','http://my-site.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://my-site.com');
This should overwrite your database settings.
I believe the problem is that studiomed.co.uk is permanently redirected (301) to www.studiomed.co.uk and www.studiomed.co.uk is permanently redirected (301) to studiomed.co.uk
Login to your Dreamhost account go to Domains->Manage Domains and choose one of the three options there are in "Do you want the www in your URL?".
After that use an ftp program to download the .htaccess file that exists in your root installation of wordpress and open it with your favorite editor. Check if you have any kind of redirection in the .htaccess file.
Which version of WordPress do you use?
Can you list the plugins you are using?
Have you gone through the basic WordPress troubleshooting steps?
flush any caching plugins you might be running, as well as server
and/or browser caches.
deactivate all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this
works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the
problematic plugin(s). Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can
still cause problems.
If you can't get into your admin dashboard,
try resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin (read
http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F
if you need help).
switch to the Twenty Eleven theme (depends on your WordPress version) to rule out any theme-specific problems.
If you can't log in to change themes, you can remove the theme folders via FTP so the only one is twentyeleven. That will force your site to use it.
manual upgrade. When all else fails, download a fresh copy of the latest.zip file to your computer, and use that to copy up. You may need to delete the wp-admin and wp-includes folders on your server. Read the Manual Update directions first: http://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress#Manual_Update
check the Master List to see if you're experiencing a known issue
Login to your wordpress dashboard (wp-admin) and go to Settings->Permalinks, select Default and save changes.
Update all urls(path) using this querys then check:--
Use this querys for change all urls(path) for db then check
UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, 'http://live_ste_path.com', 'http://localhost/local_site_path') WHERE option_name = 'home' OR option_name = 'siteurl';
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace(post_content, 'http://live_ste_path.com', 'http://localhost/local_site_path');
UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = replace(meta_value,'http://live_ste_path.com','http://localhost/local_site_path')`
[WSOD RESOLVED]
Since I could not find any solution to my problem by googling around, a crucial tracking info I finally found in WP error logs. So I would recommend to inspect logs before spending to much time looking for a proper answer by google.
After migration from an old web host to a new one, in my multisite environment all sites were working. Also, I was able to administer all subsites - but one! Trying wp-admin login to that site led me to fatal white screen. Without any message or any indication about the reason. And the culprit was corrupted file /public_html/subsite-x/wp-admin/admin.php. I really could not understand how that happened, just might suppose it appeared somehow while transferring files (FTP) from old host to a new one.

Error when running WordPress on new server

I've just upload a WordPress project into a web server. Everything went fine with the exception of the User-Photo plugin. The problem I'm having is that its doesn't seems to find the basedir path. This is the error:
Upload error: Unable to place the user photo at: /var/www/clients/client2/web4/web/arsoblog/wp-content/uploads/userphoto/1.jpg
First of all, I don't know where this path is. Even on the local server, where the site is working good, is using the exact same path, which I can't find.
Maybe someone of you knows what could have changed from one server to the other. By the way, the blog is inside another site in the web server, which is developed using CakePHP.
EDIT --- I'm having the same problem with all the uploads!
The problem is in your upload directory. When we develop the WordPress site in localhost, the default upload directory will be point to your localhost only. When you move to online server, this directory path will not change.
To override this do the following steps:
Login to your cPanel/control Panel
Go to phpMyadmin
Select your database.
Go to wp_options table
On the second page (around 58th row) Edit 'upload_path'(For the first time this row may be blank).
Give your correct directory.Eg: /home/username/public_html/folder-name/wp-content/uploads
Change "username" and "folder-name". Username is usually the username you use to login to cPanel, or your domain’s control panel. Folder-name is used for the sites hosted in subfolders. If you hosted the site in root folder, remove it.
Here is a detailed tutorial How to move wordpress to a new server or host.
If you already used WordPress uploader in localhost, you need to do a search in wp_posts table and replace your localhost reference to your live site's reference. There are some plugin available to do these search and replace in database. Check this one
Hope this will solve your problem.
777 permissions are dangerous and not the correct fix for the issue. You will get hacked with 777 permissions. See Hardening WordPress « WordPress Codex
For solving this problem you have follow some step,
*Login to your cPanel/control Panel
*Go to phpMyadmin
*Select your database.
*Go to wp_options table
*On the second page (around 58th row) Edit 'upload_path'
*Give your correct directory.Eg: /home/username/public_html/folder-name/wp-content/uploads
then you shift your server See tutorial
