Re: Moving to new server
That looks to me as though you may have been over-zealous in adding full URLs into your admin/includes/configure.php file, so that the http bit is being included as several levels instead of just via the HTTP_SERVER and HTTPS_SERVER definitions.

Re: Moving to new server
When moving to a new server, if one follows the instructions in the appropriate FAQ article, there should be no problems with the configure.php files generated by the installer.

Re: Moving to new server

Re: Moving to new server
Did you do step 1c of the FAQ? Are those the configure.php files that you are using?
