It is hard to say because you didn't include your apache config, but I
would check the VirtualHost blocks and make sure they match the new IP
(or *). Can you reach anything on the server?

In your trac.ini file, set repository_dir to the full path to the
repository (local path, not URL) and set repository_type to "svn". You
will also need the subversion Python bindings, see the TracSubversion
page for a link to download precompiled ones for windows. Make sure
you gets ones that match your subversion and apache versions.

In a DB console:
DELETE FROM ticket;

DELETE FROM ticket_custom;
