copy dolphin to new folder on server, PROBLEM

I have a question:

I just copied all of my files for dolphin from the dolphin folder to a new folder on my server, using the same database. but when i attempted to check to see what worked this is what happened:

new url: letsconnect.ca
old: deciphagear.com/dolphin/

The only thing that I haven't done yet set the crons in the control panel from the host, and i didnt do anything at all to the database since i figure i dont have to change it, its all under the same username on the same server,


the problem is none of the images show anymore (on the new url), did i miss something?


when i go to the new url the site is even missing the default thumbnails that come with dolphin, and when i go to the old url the generic gray thumbnails that come with dolphin instead of the primary profile photo chosen by each member show up. though all photos  in a members profile and on other pages so far appear to be working.



what did i miss? i followed the instructions perfectly, or, does setting the crons matter right now? i just wanted to test it to see if it would work before i set the crons to point to the new url.

"Same with /periodic/periodic.file same as above for each."
Someone told me to edit the periodic.file   paths to the same as the php files before it
I edited this file just like the ones before it in the periodic folder, was it necessary? It doesn't say to do that in the Boonex Trac.

Crons shouldn't affect image display. Your new site seems to be missing a trailing slash(/) somewhere as your links reflect:

http://letsconnect.caindex.php/

http://letsconnect.cabrowse.php/

Your .ca extension runs right into index.php and browse.php for example. Which seems to indicate you are missing the / slash. Double check /inc/header.inc.php and all other paths you updated to verify you have the / trailing slash.


Which would also affect your image display if the / slash is not properly inplemented. It will get confused and not display right. As it will be looking for some location that doesn't exist.

Regarding the /periodic/periodic.file There is little published on this and I am not sure that it does much of anything. However it it a good reference to what your actual paths need to be set in your hosts cron control.

So it is a good idea to update this with the new info and paths, incase something happens to your crons. You can then reference this file. If you accidently mess up your crons or change them and you kick yourself and say what the heck are the paths to my crons. Wall a bing...open this file and there they are!! So in my opinion this is definately worth updating as well. Kind of a backup cron info just in case.

Yeah i realized i just had to add the slash in the inc/header.inc.php file

so now it reads

$site['url']               = "http://letsconnect.ca/";

$dir['root']               = "/home/deciphagear/letsconnect.ca/";

Haha

While ALL profile (PRIMARY) photos for members are missing, until someone chooses a new one, the rest of the site it seems to be working fine so far. I'm still going over the pages and testing stuff in dolphin in the new folder.
