Question Really don't understand these errors

I now have a live set on our server, all is working well on the live site as it sits in the root of the /htdocs on our apache web server. Typically I like to have a copy of the site sitting on the server where I can test, etc. In my case I made it htdocsworkweb.

After resetting the config dot php file and copying the DB and making everything pointed to the appropriate sections I go to my browser, bring up the website.com/workweb and get the below kunena errors. This is on J1.5.11 and K 1.0.10.

This keeps happening when I make backups, and I don't know how to work around it.

In my apache error log I see this:
"[Thu Jul 02 13:00:05 2009] [error] [client 71.56.x.x] PHP Fatal error: Unable to load configuration table.\nDB function reports no errors in C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\workweb\components\com_kunena\lib\kunena.debug.php on line 59, referer: www.mysite.net/workweb/ "

All I have done is make a copy of the db and name it workweb, then made a copy of the working site in the root, put it in the workweb directory then adjust config to look at new path of webfiles and DB.

Installed version: Kunena 1.0.10 | 2009-05-21 | 1344 [ Parier! ] | php 5.2.10 | mysql 5.0.45-community-nt

Can someone provide some direction as to what kunena is seeing, and not liking, that is causing the error above? If I can get some sort of idea what to look for maybe its a configuration that needs to be changed on the server itself. But unless I know what it is that is disturbing Kunena I have no idea where to look.

Can someone look at the original post and provide ANY information please?

I wish I could help you, mate. Might the discussions On Categories Tab I get php errors in a table or default_ex template causes errors when drilling into categories have any bearing on your problems? :S

The error seems similar, but what I don't understand is how I can have the site working fine in the webserver's root, but if I make a copy of the site ( www.site.com/backup ) and copy the site into the "backup" folder and make a copy of the DB, then point the backup sites config to the new DB and change paths etc, why these errors pop up?

Now I downloaded the entire site and DB to my local PC where I have xamp working. This is where I built the site originally, and now Im getting the same error screen as in the original post.

BIZARRE!!

Maybe you're using relative URL hyperlinks? I don't know how you change them to absolute links. From what you describe, the problems only occur with your test/backup sites ... is that correct? There might be an issue with your sites configuration.php file but I'm as much at a loss to explain the phenomenon as you are. Sorry, mate.

No, no.. that shouldnt be it. The config php file is pretty basic. Im only changing the paths to the tmp/logs, the name of the db, username, password, that sort of thing. I've done this before on many a joomla site so I'm really not a total novice at this piece of work, but.. am in many others.. and far from perfect.

I really think that the developers fxstein, Matias, Noel Hunter, and or racoon need to chime in on this.

Like I said, I've done this sort of back/copy/move a 100 times with joomla sites over the years. I'm aware it could be a misfire on my part somewhere but with out some feedback or direction there's no way to know what to try next.
