I always come to you guys only with problems, I feel so bad about it... I'm migrating my server...again, this time from shared hosting over to my own VPS, and I'm having an issue. I can take the exact Gallery install including database from my current shared server, over to my VPS and when I attempt to get to the site via http://gallery.gizmokid2005.com/ I just get "Error" and the error_log isn't updated and I can't figure out why its not working. I know the DB connection is working, I've verified that, but I can't determine where the issue is. The database is the same, as is the file structure, to a T. Can anyone please give me some shining light to follow?? Thanks in Advance! Obligatory pertinent info here:

I'm betting database issue. Make sure you follow these instructions exactly:

It's going to be the same for a multi-site setup as well right?

I'd think so, but I've never setup, let alone moved a multi-site.

Well I've migrated things over...but now I can't login...I get to the login page, enter the correct info, and it just goes back to the main page without logging in.
Ideas?

How to Manually Login is what worked.
It also seems that whenever I change a setting in site admin, it doesn't take, it just takes me back to my gallery home.

Ah, make sure that the baseUri setting in config.php is correct.

Yeah, nothing is saving at all. I tried to change the image toolkit priority and it didn't save...nothing seems to be...is this something I should be looking at in the database or in files?

No, that was my fail...my virtualhosts file had an issue that I fixed. Try again.

Login and post your system info:
FAQ: What information is required when I ask for help in the forums?
Also, try clearing your cache:
FAQ: How can I clear cached data?
If you have multiple image toolkits installed, uninstall all but ImageMagick. Go to Site Admin > ImageMagick and click Test Settings. Does it pass? If so, go to Site Admin > Maintenance and rebuild your thumbnails and resizes.

Here's my systeminfo:
My phpinfo page is in my original post.
I cleared my cache originally before posting for help, I cleared both the DB and template.
And I removed all the graphics toolkits, and when i hit test settings for imagemagick, it just goes back to the gallery home.

I'm probably going to give up on this and just do a fresh install and migrate my data over. My guess is something in the core somewhere, or even in a config somewhere is borked and not updating like it should.
