redirect issues

    Site is online. The admin made a redirect to the other domain where I developed the new modx revo site. Both domains are on the same server.
    Redirect works probably cause of funneling, but wayfinder and all internal links still show the development URLs because [[+siteURL]] is not updating.
    I deleted the cache via backend and ran a new setup. No changes. Need help.
    Thank you

      It would help a lot if you posted your htaccess file and told us which version of php and apache that you are using.

        Hi bowkilled,
        thank you for your time:

        Apache/2.2.21 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/0.9.8r
        PHP Version 5.2.17
        I don't have access to the redirect htaccess I could ask if thats necessary. In "my" htaccess I have:

        <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  Options +FollowSymlinks
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase / 
  # Friendly URLs
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>


        and this (commented - if I turn it on the site is not available)

        # <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
#   RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
#   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\..+$ [NC]
#   RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# </IfModule>

          Try this: 

          <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} ^off$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^olddomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ <a href="http://www.domain.com/$1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.domain.com/$1</a> [R=301,L]
</IfModule>


          Also try clear your site´s cache after you have updated the htaccess file.

            Did you run setup in upgrade mode on the new site? That will usually straighten out the paths.
