Migrated to new hosting server, site works except the homepage
Permalink
Hello, after many trials and tribulations, I have managed to migrate my site to the new hosting servers and am able to load it when I go tohttp://www.fitsal.com. The strange thing is that on the homepage of my site, the Concrete5 stuff isn't there. No sign in link at the bottoms, and when I am signed in, there is whitespace where the tool bar at the top of the page should be, but no toolbar. I am able to sign in when I go to another page on the site, just not the homepage. I was following thehttp://www.concrete5.org/documentation/installation/moving_a_site... tutorial so I tried the tests at the bottom.
I could not load the automated jobs page, because it was saying that the /jobs directory did not exist. This perplexed me, because the jobs directory should be at /conrete5/jobs. I made an empty folder called jobs at the root, and all the sudden I could access the jobs page and run jobs also.
I had a similar problem when trying to download the latest update (I'm on 5.6.0.1 and it wants to update to 5.6.0.2). I did the same thing as with the jobs, but instead made a folder called update in the root. Now when I click download I get "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 14437133 bytes) in /hermes/waloraweb001/b1066/moo.fitsalcom/concrete/core/helpers/file.php on line 215"
Here's the project page for my site

Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is my trial run for migrating a site (it's my mom's and mine is still safe on the old servers). Our old hosting expires in less than a week, so I'm pretty freaked out about possibly losing my site.

I tried the page type method, but they both are using the default Page 1 type. I also just transferred my websitehttp://www.justin-ryder.com over and it's all there, but when I log in I go straight to the edit mode view and I can't see the toolbar or actually edit anything. The sign in link is still at the bottom when I do this. I'm thinking that the memory limit could be the reason, but how can I confirm what the memory limit currently is? I've attached a screenshot of what it looks like when I sign in on my site.
Hey! One problem at a time!
Could you try to attach your template files to this thread?
The way you do this is to fire up your FTP program or use the File Manager in your host's Control Panel and go to your theme folder and download any files with a .php extension. Rename them by changing the extension to .txt and attach them to this thread. I'll have a look at them to see if there is a structural problem with them.

A couple of things...
1) It looks like the page type that the home page is using is broken. This would indicate an incomplete migration.
To fix this, try this:
Go to the 'Articles' page, hover over the Edit button and click 'Design'. Note which 'Page Type' that page is using. You might have to click the arrows to scroll sideways until you find the one that's highlighted.
Then go to the site map and click on your home page and choose 'Design'. Change the 'Page Type' to the same one your 'Articles' page is using.
2) Upgrading takes a lot of memory. I think the requirement for Version 5.6 is 64 meg and it looks like you have 32 meg maximum. You should put in a tech request to ask your host if they can increase your memory allocation to 64 meg.
I would also export/download the files and the database contents from your old site again to make sure you have a true copy of your old site.
