I'm using Drupal 6.13
I created a Virtual Machine for disaster recovery purposes. There are some slight differences on server platform but none that should make a significant difference. Production is on Ubuntu 8 Server and the Backup is on Ubuntu 9. AMP configuration are the same versions. I also have configure my php.ini file to be more or less identical.
I'm using the same FQDN with the network disconnected now until I test it live. I see it also search for an external resource where I have links inserted with in the node pages.
I backup MySQL DB with MySQL-Admin performed restore DB with same tool. I've maintained nomenclature continuity.
Now the main page (index.php) appears fine as if I'm on the Production Main page. However
1. It does not appear any of the links display any of the nodes. (This should not require login credentials)
2. I can't login using the account #1 (I'm able to view all the user profiles in the MySQL DB to verify the information is there). It takes me to destination=node
3. The web pages messages that appear for any involve a Not Found (examples below):
The requested URL /pm/node was not found on this server.
The requested URL /pm/node/213 was not found on this server.
It does not make a difference if it is a clean URL or numerical node the result is the same.
I've done some troubleshooting with .htaccess and settings.php but no change in results
I really could use some suggestions at this point to get the site up and running. It would make me sleep easier in case anything happened with the production version. Ideally I hope never to use it but I need a disaster recovery plan.
