Broken links after moving a Joomla installation - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
i'm having problems moving joomla installation (moving database web hosted site local joomla installation. joomla 1.5.1
this may lack of understanding here have done...
i have downloaded current web server html files. site called artsretreat , directory contains directories such administrator, cache, components , files such configuration.php
in addition use phpmyadmin dump mysql database dumpfile (this called artsretreat.sql) .
i install xampp on local machine (which works fine after installation) , copy joomla 1.5 files place.
so have
c:\xampp\anonymous
c:\xampp\apache
c:\xampp\cgi-bin
c:\xampp\contrib
c:\xampp\htdocs etc
i copy joomla files directory
c:\xampp\htdocs\joomla_artsretreat
i login mysql using http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ , create database called artsretreat.
i run:
http://localhost/joomla_artsretreat , go through joomla installation process, seems proceed fine, don't install sample data, left empty , when remove installation directory , go joomla website see expected empty website (understanding although have restored mysql dump haven't yet copied html files place).
at stage take copy of configuration.php
so take backed html files original site , copy them c:\xampp\htdocs\joomla_artsretreat i.e. directory structure same have installed files copied on top. restore configuration.php had copied.
i use phpmyadmin import load sql dump file , completes no errors , can see bunch of tables looks quite healthy.
the home page looks every link try broken.
what doing wrong? i'd grateful suggestions.
thanks

all have done follows:
(a) created directory under htdocs have done.
(b) copied files current site including sub-directories directory.
(c) created database , imported database
(d) edit configuration.php reflect new environment.
i not understand mention copying .html files. in fact, joomla! files php files.
anyway, problem facing may respect usage of .htaccess file. have edit .htaccess file reflect directory in line # rewritebase /
the revised line rewritebase /joomla_artsretreat
check whether helps.
