I've moved to a AWS VPS and all went well.
...Now my store is updated and finished; i updated my old hosting companies (ipage) 'a' record with the ip address of the new server and i get an error when i put in my url:
Forbidden
You don’t have permission to access / on this server.
Not sure what happening??? Everything was working fine when my:
ps_configuration table - PS_SHOP_DOMAIN and PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL
&
ps_shop_url - domain and domain_ssl
...were set to the ip address of the server. As soon i replace the EIP with www.url.com in the db entries (above) and the dns is propagated, i get the error.
Do i need to adjust the .htaccess file? i cant get into the back office to regen the .htaccess file.
happy new year and thanks
