Website transfer error

[gyoc]

Hello,

Am following the instructions here to migrate my website from a test URL to my portfolio page.

Followed all the steps a couple of times now but getting the same error.

I deleted the WP-Content on the new site, replaced it with the WP-Content from the test site, didn't see any errors on the transfer.

After checking the wp-config.php file for the correct DB to edit, I migrated the database (drop the database on the new site and import the database from the old site)

Next, I navigate to the new website, expecting to see my website properly populated, but get the below view:

Not sure why this is happening. I can see before I make the migration that there is a 'fresh' wordpress page on the new site using one of the default themes, and wordpress is definitely installed on the domain.

My host is Namecheap, they supported a little bit but are unable to give me any more direction as this might be specific to Laytheme. I noticed that the video is from 2016 so maybe something has changed?

Thanks!

Just to update on my side since there's no reply yet, I tried once again, had to remove the old WP-Content folder multiple times as some parts would not delete (on the new website). Then imported the WP-Content folder, everything was OK. The issue seems to be when I migrate the DB, I keep seeing the install wordpress screen posted above after the migration is complete but cannot see what I'm doing wrong.

Dear @gyoc
ok. Thank you for letting us know.

Probably it was about his:
