+## Troubleshooting
+If you are unable to login to your newly migrated Friendica installation, check your web server's error and access logs and mysql logs for obvious issues.
+
+If still unable to resolve the problem, it's likely an issue with your [installation](Install).
+In this case, you may try to an entirely new Friendica installation on your new server, but use a different FQDN and DNS name.
+Once you have this up and running, take it offline and purge the database and configuration file and try migrating to this installation.
