Possible Database Issue

Post by jack0987 »

My old server went into an endless reboot loop, so I moved (copied) my website to a new computer and restored it's database to the new computer as well duplicating the previous setup as best I know.

When I attempt to browse to the phpbb site I get an error that it can not locate the styles.

EDIT: the exact message is "could not get styles data"

Can anyone make a suggestion?

did you copy all of the old styles over to the new server?

that error usually means that you had a style installed on the old one that you do not have the files for on the new one.

to the best of my knowledge, I copied the entire website just as it was before.

I just rechecked and it all looks good.

Might there be a way to restore defaults or repair?
