    Hi,

    I recently used the Migrator tool to move https://lelooska.org from GoDaddy’s hosting to AWS. After the move, the top-level page loads just fine, but almost all of the subpages fail to load completely. (It’s not a 404 error — they start to load but don’t finish.)

    Some background: DNS still points to the old (usually unresponsive) site while I’m in the process of setting things up at https://35.166.182.109. (I was on an older hosting plan at GoDaddy that has trouble supporting WordPress anymore.) I’ve added an entry in my local /etc/hosts that points lelooska.org to 35.166.182.109 so that links in the under-construction AWS site resolve properly.

    I managed to get a full backup from the old site, and used Migrator on the new site to install *without* doing search-and-replace on the database. The old site had WordPress in a subdirectory named WP and the new one doesn’t, so I manually did a search-and-replace to remove /WP from strings in the database.

    Note: One page *does* load properly. If you visit the new site and click on the “Contact” link the contact page loads like it should, whereas the “Silent Auction” link next to it takes you to a page that fails to load. Seems like a good clue, but I can’t see any difference in how the two pages are implemented.

    What have I broken? How can I start working on a fix?

    Thanks!

    After much futzing about, I got this resolved. Still not entirely sure what the issue was, but it seemed to be a combination of permalink problems and some plugin issues.

    Hi Brad,

    Apologies that we didn’t get to this by the time you resolved the issue.

    Would it be possible to send us a list of the plugins that were causing issues? This should help us diagnose similar issues in the future.

    Best Wishes.
