Ok so I am setting up a development server. I have the live version of vbulletin files and database dump that I imported to the new development server so it was an exact copy of what was on the live site.
The domain for the development server is obviously different so I went to the "setting" table in the database and changed all instances of the old domain to the new domain so the cookie path and whatnot are correct now in the database. The problem though is that I still can not login to the forum on the development server, it has for some reason the live server domain in the form action for the login box for the user and in the admincp, whenever I enter a correct username and password, it says "thanks for logging in..." then it just redirects back to the login screen.
What settings where do I have to change to get this to work? There has to be a table in the database somewhere that has the live server domain in there that I need to change but I just can not find it. Anyone know where to find this?
edit: I don't want to do a fresh install on the development server because the live server has a lot of mods installed + file changes to get my hacks to work (custom BB code) and whatnot.
