Thanks a lot for your help and patience with me.

The problem is solved, the hosting company did not allow to set permissions with filezilla, i had to do it on the hosting control center which they had to open for me.

Now all is finally running smoothly...

I know what you are struggling with - I've been there a lot of times smiley
So here another hint: in your ftp client, always connect to a IP, not to a domain name.

Are you sure, you're looking at the correct server for permissions? Create a file like "info.html" in the htdocs root folder of both. Write something usefull into them, like "Old" or "New" smiley

I guess the first thing to do is to sort out which server is which. Then: copy all of its contents to the new server, including database. Edit all config files with new path and db connections, that should be it.

By the way - I didnt expect it to be evo smiley

I changed the dns servers now to solve the problem immediately. Now i have access to the manager and can login. But there is a new problem now with the permissions of some files (assets/cache and so on). The update (1.07) routine says that these files are not writable! But when i look at the server with filezilla these files are set to 777.

What could that be?]]> all4webdesign Dec 27, 2012, 03:34 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/81327/moving-the-site-to-a-new-hosting-server-site-is-ok-but-cannot-login-to-manager#dis-post-448387 <![CDATA[Re: Moving the site to a new hosting server, site is ok, but cannot login to manager]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/81327/moving-the-site-to-a-new-hosting-server-site-is-ok-but-cannot-login-to-manager#dis-post-448375
Normally you should reach your Evo-Site-Manager with http://yoursite.ch/manager, where yoursite.ch is the temporary url.
In config.inc.php you should only change the lines 5 to 12 with the new database settings.
Did you clean your browser's cache?

So, if you flush your local DNS cache, your client machine (where you're reading this right now) might ask the big telephone book for the current address and get the correct answer. It should lead you to the correct server.

if you ping your domain, you can see which ip address your pc is targeting.]]> gallenkamp Dec 26, 2012, 09:03 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/81327/moving-the-site-to-a-new-hosting-server-site-is-ok-but-cannot-login-to-manager#dis-post-448303 <![CDATA[Re: Moving the site to a new hosting server, site is ok, but cannot login to manager]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/81327/moving-the-site-to-a-new-hosting-server-site-is-ok-but-cannot-login-to-manager#dis-post-448294
I am working with Evo 1.07 so I do not have a modx_workspaces table. I changed the server settings in config.inc.php and the site is working, just the login and install (upgrade) is not working.

Could it be that it will work asap I change the dns server settings with the registrar?

In PhpMyAdmin, check the value in the modx_workspaces table.

Also, check the path in the four config.core.php files:

 MODX root directory
 /manager/
 /connectors/
 /setup/includes/

On a windows box it's "ipconfig /flushdns" in cmd shell
