When i created the site it was created on windows base, instead of linux.. I called My Host ( Godaddy ) They than transferred everything over from windows to linux.

After the transfer i noticed some error's on the top and bottom of the site... These errors were not there before the transfer

I have been struggling to get them fixed and i have ran out of solution's. So maybe i can get some one to help me out...

This is the first site i have ever made. and i am not very experienced with wordpress.

Error code:

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/var/chroot/home/content/02/10849202/tmp/sess_6d0c52e31c1dfa7e4ff2b16b38353236, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /home/content/02/10849202/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-e-commerce/wpsc-core/wpsc-constants.php on line 19

I've gone ahead and made that change for you. It does indeed require a change in your nameservers in the first place, so you'll receive an email about that, but at least your IP is now pointed at your shared hosting with GoDaddy.com.

So you know, in the future should GoDaddy perform any sort of migration for your site that results in a change of your IP, you'll need to let us know so that we can update your domain name to the new IP. This will allow your site to remain up!

Pointing your domain using A records is a somewhat complicated proposition in our system. I can do it for you however.

If you'd like me to go in and change your A record so it's pointed correctly towards that IP, I certainly can! Or you can change your nameserver as suggested by GoDaddy (and which I also suggest), by following this help article:

Thank you in advance for your patience in assisting a WordPress newcomer.

I registered and purchased my .com domain through WordPress last month and recently purchased hosting through GoDaddy in order to install a custom theme.

In order to avoid the fee and wait time of transferring my domain to GoDaddy, GoDaddy says to change the A record to 173.201.93.1. One support person has told me to also change the Nameservers to NS31.domaincontrol.com and NS32.domaincontrol.com but another support person has told me to leave the name servers as the default WordPress ones. I have left them with WordPress but am now being told by GoDaddy that my domain is not pointing to their host because I have multiple A records attached to my DNS.

Can you tell me how I make sure there is only a single A record listed and if I should change the name servers to point to GoDaddy?

Thank you!

This page details the instructions for getting the authorization code. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/transfer-domain-registration

You'll need your customer number and set a password from your Dashboard (Store->Domains->Domain Administration->Transfer ownership to another registrar), then return to that page to access the domain manager.

The domain manager will allow you to unlock your domain and request the authorization code to be sent to you via email.

I could be wrong, but I think WordPress.com's domain system is built upon the same software as GoDaddy's. The screenshots look like GoDaddy, but isn't.

Cheers!

I have moved forward in just transfering the domain name, and now I'm being asked or an authorization code.

WordPress.com's DNS management tool doesn't allow setting a A record for the root domain (@).

What'll you need to do is to use GoDaddy's DNS tool to set your DNS as you'll like (copying over MX records for e-mail, etc), then change the name servers for your domain registered with WordPress.com to GoDaddy's.

However, if you don't want to pay the $106 to retrieve the domain, this is your only option.
