Problems with completing installation after a site move

[labocha]

I have just moved my site from Godaddy to Hostgator. On the old site I have had a vBulletin 3.6.2 with the latest patch applied and the vBPortal 3.6.1. Here is the situation:

(1) On my old forum I have made backups of my Sql forum database, language and style.
(2)I have found new host
(3) I have uploaded VBulletin 3.6.3, run the instll.php script and it worked. I could see the forum working.
(4) I have then uploaded my modified language, previously exported, and it seemed to work too.
(5) I have uploaded my modified VBulletin style This again worked.
(6) Using a host provided MySQL import utility, I have imported my sql database. I got no error messages and I could see the tables have been updated. I could now see some of the vBPortal-specific tables.
(7) When I try running my site now I get the following error:

Warning: Unknown(./../global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /global.php(356) : eval()'d code on line 1

Fatal error: (null)() [function.require]: Failed opening required './../global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/labocha/public_html/forum/global.php(356) : eval()'d code on line 1

I still have noit installed VBPOrtal on the new server. My question is :

- Any ideas what may be causing the above error and how to fix it?

Through search in forums I just found a suggetsion to modify the config.php file by adding the following line:

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

I have done theat and it seem tohave fixed the problem. The question is: what are the consequences ? Have I just disabled somenthing I will need for example to run the vBPortal ?

That disables your modifications/hacks on your board. If you remove it (which you may do so now that it's fixxed) it will reenable the hacks and modifications.

Thx dude ... at first, my vBportal did not work 100% but removing the line worked like a dream .. :)
