 * You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/tools.php on this server.
 * I am getting this error and asked my hosting company to disable mod_security 
   settings which they did, but no luck still.
 * Is it possible to use a backup and change the sql file references from the old
   domain to the new domain, making sure I have the backup in the new location?
