[Resolved] Moving site to new home

[Chris]

I tried to move a site to a new server and domain. Everything seemed to work fine, except the Customizer, which brings up a 500 Internal Server Error. The only way I could remove the error is by deactivating GP Premium. Deleting GP premium, reinstalling and reactivating did not help.

Your help with this would be greatly appreciated. If not how to fix the problem then advice on the best way to migrate, without the errors.

PS. I used this plugin to do the migration:

All-in-One WP Migration

Hi Chris,

That’s super weird – GP Premium shouldn’t care if the site moved or not.

Can you turn on WP DEBUG and see if any errors come up? http://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG

You can also call your host and see if they can spot what was causing the 500 error.

Let me know 🙂

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the quick response!

Having looked at the error_log on the destination server it look’s like it might be a memory issue:

[Sat Feb 14 18:04:21 2015] [error] [client 2.26.250.173] ModSecurity: Output filter: Response body too large (over limit of 524288, total not specified). [hostname “traintocampaign.london”] [uri “/wp-admin/customize.php”] [unique_id “VN@OIX8AAAEAA5ZGG4IAAAAX”]

I’ve passed the matter on to the host to deal with.

Thanks again. Awesome theme, by the way!

Chris

You can try increasing the memory yourself: http://generatepress.com/knowledgebase/increasing-memory-limit/

If that doesn’t work, your hosting should be able to take care of it.

Glad you’re enjoying the theme! 🙂
