How to trouble shoot Joomla CMS:

Somtime when you transfer your joomla website from one to another host joomla website stop responding and sometime show blank index and admin pages. This may be to conflicting somting,

So how we can check exactly which plugin or component or module is causing the problem?

Here is a Quick Method:

1..Install new joomla
2..on this new joomla installation Install as much component and plugins and module you

have that was in previous faulty CMS. (specially install K2).
3..upload your backup files into "Backup" folder.
4..Import your backup database into mysql.
5..take backup of all new joomla installation files and folder into "joomla" folder.
6..edit joomla configuration file and connect with your backup database.
7..copy template folder from "Backup" folder.
8..refresh the home page.
9..now copy one by one subfolders of plugin, Component, modules from "Backup".
and refresh the home page each time you copy the folder to see the effect.

when you see page blank or any error after copying any folder, revert it back from

"joomla" folder and note down the module or plugin folder name which is causing problem.

10..when you found the exact plugin or modules you can just disable from joomla admin panel.

The Best thing of this method, you can login from admin panel and you will see all option where you can disable SEF URL (which usualy caused problem) and all module, component  and plugins.
