Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? Yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Joomla! version: Joomla 2.5.11
PHP version: 5.3
MySQL version: 5.0.8 community
Host: hosthere
Akeeba Backup version which took the backup: 3.7.7
Kickstart version used to extract the backup: 3.6.0

Description of my issue: After moving a site from one host to another using akeebabackup, all is well until I click on the menu links and I get an Internal Error message. When I turn off SEF in config all is well. I have created a new htaccess file using admintools and turned sef back on and still the same issue. I attach the log file for you to look at. Thanks.

Your issue is completely unrelated to the site transfer process.

First do check the server settings in the bottom of Admin Tools' .htaccess page. Make sure that the hostname and the directory match your new site location.

If the problem persists it would seem that your host is ignoring the .htaccess file. In such a case please contact your host.

Nicholas, as ever thank you! I had omitted to change the base directory to blank from the subdirectory (physio) it was originally set up in. Created a new htaccess file and all is well !!!
