Hi there @arg6063,

I could suggest a couple of things:

  • Make sure that the new document root that you are using is writable for Apache:
  1. sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/example.com/public_html
  • Check your Apache error logs for more information:
  1. tail -100 /var/log/apache/error.log

Also, did you clone your existing website or was it a new WordPress website that you setup?

Regards, Bobby
