I've checked the other threads on this, removed the cached files, cleared my browser cache and changed CP to cookies only and it's not helping.

Assets won't display anything but the file folders. I can't see the individual files after migration. I checked the paths to the files in the file upload preferences and they are correct.

  • Have you tried updating the indexes? If you're logged in as a superadmin, you should see a button on the top of the Assets page called "Update Indexes".

  • Is this a server migration, a domain migration, or both?

Are these fields set appropriately? Are you making sure if your site is behind a certificate, it uses HTTPS for a protocol? These settings affect the config variable Derek Hogue was speaking of (specifically "URL to the root directory of your site" is that variable):

Gerneral Configuration Page

I believe it is possibly overridden by your config file. Go to 

your_html_root_folder/system/expressionengine/config/

and edit your config.php file, and look for that variable. Make sure it is set correctly there as well.

Go to Admin → System Administration and verify that $config['site_url'] is correct.

Assets uses an action appended to that value via an AJAX call in order to display thumbnails, so if it's incorrect it can't display images in the admin.

  • 'site_url' doesn't exist - should I add it?
