 * Hi,
 * I have just migrated to a new server. The blog works fine, except when I log 
   in as an administrator. The blog does recognize me as such and, after login, 
   displays the administrator toolbar. However when I move to the dashboard, the
   bar disappears and in edit mode the edit bar is also missing. Of course, I can’t
   add any media.
 * I made a fresh installation in a parallel directory with the same database. This
   one works fine.
 * error-log displays no errors.
 * Could anyone suggest where I should be looking into.
 * Thank you

 * Thank you for taking the time.
 * I did that; it did not help. Beforehand, I replaced wp-includes.

 * You said that you have wordpress working fine directory with the same database
   if that the case you use wordpress from that directory by following this instructions.
