I've just moved my domain across to a new server, changed the nameservers and still waiting for things to catch up on my isp but trying to re-install MT in the meantime.

I've uploaded everything to the new server via FTP, and by using the temporary web address (since the dns info is cached on my isp) I've run the mt-check.cgi script ... which worked fine and told me everything was ready to go.

However, now when I try to load mt.cgi (also via the temporary web address), I get a message saying:

Got an error: Error opening file '/mt-config.cgi': No such file or directory

I'm positive the file is there ... I've checked and re-uploaded multiple times and can't find anything wrong with it.

Could this simply be because my isp has cached the dns info and won't let me refresh yet, thereby somehow screwing up the mt-config.cgi file settings? Or do I have a real problem?
