Hi,

If this is a copy of the database, and not a reference to the original
database, then you can use the commands in my prior e-mail to fix up the
path. It'll modify the settings stored in the database to reference the new
paths you specify. After you do that, you can restart Apache, and it should
begin to work.

The rest of what you're doing sounds fine, as far as I can tell.

Christian
