i move a site to another hosting, i do a backup of the database and put in a new database this step create all tables and copy all the content.
next i copy all the files via ftp (modules, themes etc)
i put the user and password in settings.php
i see only a blank page

will be any problem if the original database name is other? 
the tables use some of the information about the original name of the database? or the path?

when i uncomment this code:

* $conf = array(
* 'site_name' => 'My Drupal site',
* 'theme_default' => 'pushbutton',
* 'anonymous' => 'Visitor'
* );

in settings.php the sites begin to work with a default template without any block and i can move
to my theme, i try moving theme default to the name of the theme but dont work.

sounds to me like your php.ini memory setting on the server is less than the server you moved from. It is probably set to 8m try changing this to 32 or something.

the line in the file is

memory_limit = 32M

Hi

You need to update 'variable' key 'file_directory_temp' table, where physical path and other info specific to the server are stored. You need to change them to your new server environment.

for my case,the probem was solved
1. the php configuration is not suitable to Drupal. You can check if there are any php configuration problem by visit the update.php file. eg: www.yourdomain.com/update.php .
2. increase the php memory

You could put out the error message by following guide at http://drupal.org/node/158043. Based on that, you might be able to find the root cause.
