Mephisto migration issues

Hi all,

I have been scouring the internet looking for some help to this problem but have been unable to find a solution.  The scenerio...

I moved a client's website which was running an older unknown version of Mephisto.  I'm guessing 0.73, but that's just a guess. Anyway, I exported their mySQL database and used cpanel to import the database.  No issues.  I then created a database user and assigned all permissions and access to the mephisto database.  Then I installed the latest version of Mephisto 0.8 using an extracted tarball file.  I would have used git, but the weekend I did the move they had their server down I configured the database.yml file and .htaccess for fcgi according to the wiki.  Then I moved the mephisto/public folder from the old server to the proper location on the new server.  Then I ran rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production.  No errors.

So now I load up the website and everything seems fine.

Now there are the following, discovered, issues.
In the mephisto admin section, unable to load the "assets" tab.
Also in the admin section, unable to load any existing articles to make changes.

Now at this point I'm thinking permission issues with the database or folders.  But I'm stumped.

Any ideas?

Oh, hostingrails support, this is not on my account but on my client's account also hosted by you guys.

Hello,

Did you check the production logs when you got the following errors in the front-end/web-browser. Can you please paste the concerned logs so that we can check this issue further.

I just downloaded the production.log, its empty!  Do I need to specifically enable error logging?

I just tried to login to the admin page.  Now I get an error telling me "Application error
Rails application failed to start properly"  The application was running earlier.  Is there a way to manually restart mephisto?
