How did you port the code over?

Did you copy the whole web folder over in one go?

This doesn't work (unless both systems are 100% identical). You will
get error all over the place because you copied over the cache from
the old system and cake (quite rightly) gets confused (files are no-
longer where the cache thinks they are).

Best way to do it (in my experience) is to install cake on the target
machine, copy over your app directory and then delete the cache
directory (in app/temp).

Hope this helps :)

(as an aside, I develop on a windows box but our live systems are all
*nix - works fine for me) :-)
