I'm moving my site to another host and right now any existing links to the site are going to go nowhere. This is because I set the site up stupidly and am suffering for it now.

Basically you need to strip "drupal" off any links you try to follow. So a link like "drupal.cyjon.net/node/42" will say it doesn't exist, but if you go to "cyjon.net/node/42" then it will be fine. I'm trying to set up the redirects to take care of this automatically but I'm having a little trouble with that.

I wonder if @Delphy might have some suggestions regarding the subdomain redirects, we have various of those on MTS.

Thanks for the mention @Nysha Cyjon, what webserver software are you using? Apache or nginx?

For Apache you can just add into your .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^drupal\.cyjon\.net [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) http://cyjon.net/$1 [L,R,NE]

Thanks for updating us on your site. I went there today, and when I couldn't get in I momentarily panicked. Glad to know it's still around.

Delphy, that would work if these servers were on this planet instead of Bizarro World. Redirects were basically bouncing all over the place. We finally managed to cobble together a solution, though I did so much voodoo debugging I can't even remember what finally worked. The internal links look screwy but they do the job so I think I won't touch it for fear of breaking it again.

OK, finally got it all fixed thanks to tech support. Site should be fine now, though as mentioned I expect it to be slower on this new host.
