Error codes while trying to transfer a site to a new server.

Hi,
I am not a developper nor Linux savvy, but I am on vacation now and started learning Linux a week ago, 8 to 10 hours a day. I want to learn.

My challenge is the following: I had a website developed custom for me 5 years ago, and I want to transfer it to a new location. I have access to both the existing and the new server. I have installed the LAMP stack on the new server, I have copied the website files to the new server, exported the DB and restored it to the new server. But the site is still not working. (blank page appears instead of the site).

SO… this is a quest for me, the newbie, to resolve each issue that I’ll be facing until my site is up and running on my new server.

Current step is the following: I get 3 error messages when I visit my site on the new server (not yet through a domain name but with IP address / name of the directory):

Code:

PHP Warning:  include_once(Log.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/fessebook/libraries/propel/runtime/lib/Propel.php on line 299
PHP Warning:  include_once(): Failed opening 'Log.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/var/www/fessebook/include/propel/build/classes:/var/www/fessebook/:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/fessebook/libraries/propel/runtime/lib/Propel.php on line 299
PHP Fatal error:  Class 'Log' not found in /var/www/fessebook/libraries/propel/runtime/lib/Propel.php on line 306

It seems like I have to install something called Propel, which seems to be related to ZEND (I know my site was coded with the help of Zend). And after investigation, I seem to have to install Propel with a tool called PEAR, which I don’t know if I have it on my server.

So any help to put me in the right direction will help!

Thanks so much, community.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about web design and web programming. I learn by looking for interesting questions on linuxquestions.org, and searching for answers if I am clueless.

Propel is documented at http://propelorm.org. To install it, create a file named composer.json in your web site's root directory, with this content:

Code:

"require": {
    "propel/propel": "~2.0@dev"
}

and follow the instructions at https://packagist.org.

Good luck!
