 * Hi everybody! I have troubles by moving my wordpress MU blog to a different domain
   with the same hoster.
    my domain is `http://zukunftderkommunikation.com`
 * I did try everything possible now and i am getting quiet desperate now.
    Im not
   new to werdpress and am just getting quick into mySQL.
 * Following steps i’ve done already:
    *Backup Database *Copy wordpress the wished
   directory *changing all links in my database from [http://oldurl.com](http://oldurl.com)
   to [http://newurl.com](http://newurl.com) changing the wp-config.php home and
   siteurl to [http://newurl.com](http://newurl.com) This didn’t work. instead i
   have some broken links now and can’t access the network manager any more. So 
   i backuped mySQL -back to normal. -Site is still redirecting to [http://oldurl.com](http://oldurl.com)
 * than i tried define(‘RELOCATE’, true); – no change.
 * and i am missing the option at the admin section to change the url inside the
   backend (settings -> General -> Change url)
 * than i tryed with a new database & user.
    Importing the backuped database with
   the changed links from “oldurl.com” to “newurl.com”
 * Thanks in advance for your help!!

   error of establishing a database connection. but the regular blog is still on
   the “oldurl.com”…
