Duplicating site on new server / new domain - Internal Server Error

[adsw]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to make a copy of my current prestashop site on a new server and new domain. Don't want to change the current one so can't change anything on that backend. Have copied files and database and uploaded them to new server. The current site has redirection from www. to non-www and I have tried to do the same in the htaccess file but still getting an internal server error. In fact, I'm getting an internal server error for a test.html file I uploaded to the root directory. Does this error mean something is wrong with my .htaccess file ?

 

Hope someone can help

Hi, did you change the database values for your shop URL?
