Can somebody help me?
I recently migrated my multi-site installation to another (cheaper) hosting plan; everything seems to be okay, but now if I do a manual check for available updates on any of the sites (/admin/reports/updates/check) I get this message:
The page you requested does not exist. For your convenience, a search was performed using the query 500 shtml.
Having searched through this forum, it looks like I forgot to do my homework on properly transfering an installation...
Along with FTPing the files (and updating the settings.php files), I exported the databases and imported them to my new server by simply using the Backup/Restore tool in cPanel; however, I failed to delete the caches or turn off Clean URLs before I exported them (and now it's too late to go back and do it properly). Big mistake?
As said, all the sites appear to be otherwise functioning properly. I am able to run cron manually and (so far as I can tell) do just about anything else as normal.
It's only when I click on "Check Manually" for available updates that I get this 'page not found' message.
From my research I'm guessing that this is a database issue, but I have no idea what to do about it...

Possible htaccess problem
Hi,
I do not think that your issue is about db; it seems like your new host does not allow url rewrite.
Anyway, you can use /?q=admin/reports/updates instead of /admin/reports/updates/check
