How to Investigate a Website That Returns a 404 After a Hosting Migration

A migration can change document roots, rewrite rules, case-sensitive paths, or route configuration and make existing URLs disappear.

Checks to make

Compare failing paths with the old route map, inspect web server and application logs, verify document root and rewrite configuration, and check whether static and dynamic routes behave differently. Keep redirects specific to avoid loops.

When to get help
