Problem moving servers 1.7.4.4

[LadyLionheart]

Hi,

I've been having problems moving my webshop from one server to another.
Steps I've taken:

backed up database

imported database on new server

downloaded website

uploaded website

updated the config file to current database

updated the .htaccess file

deleted the .htaccess file

 

I keep getting a 500 internal server error on my website.

With the htacces file active, I get this error: 

[Tue Feb  5 18:28:27 2019] [error] [client 220.243.136.134] Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.
[Tue Feb  5 18:28:27 2019] [error] [client 220.243.136.134] Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.

 

And now for some reason after editing the htacces file I get this error:

 

[Tue Feb  5 18:50:31 2019] [error] [client 220.243.135.250] File does not exist: /var/www/vhosts/72/200087/webspace/httpdocs/toys.com/product_info.php
[Tue Feb  5 18:50:33 2019] [error] [client 220.243.135.194] File does not exist: /var/www/vhosts/72/200087/webspace/httpdocs/toys.com/product_info.php
[Tue Feb  5 18:50:34 2019] [error] [client 220.243.135.227] File does not exist: /var/www/vhosts/72/200087/webspace/httpdocs/toys.com/conditions.php

I have also changed the database ps_shop_url to the new domain.

 

I am thinking the link should be /webspace/httpdocs/toys.com/conditions.php instead of /var/www/vhosts/72/20087. How do I correct this?

Can anyone please help me out because I am kind of lost...

Did you do the two things needed to remove remainders of the old site: empty the cache and regenerate (or if that is impossible: delete) .htaccess?

[LadyLionheart]

Yes did both

I have now done a fresh install at the new site, and imported the existing database. All looks well, but if I click on one of the categories, I get 404- not found. Even though I can see the categories in the store. How can this be?

[musicmaster]

What happens if you disable pretty urls and clean the cache and .htaccess?

Did you update your Shop Url in the settings? If you import database this might have been overwritten by old values again
