I think you need to use Akeeba Backup to take a copy of your correct and working website, then use the backup created to install into your new hosting. Akeeba is simple to use and works great for moving sites.
Delete everything from your new hosting and use the .jpa file created to install. If you are unsure how to do this, PM me for instructions.
Akeeba did not help...still the same problem... now i get that ZDS is not the corect table name...what table...
I did it hundred times....go to phpmyadmin of my localhost...export the database...go to the server....create a new DB, import the database (exported from the localhost) and change the configuration.php file....
1. Created new empty database.
2. Added user to this new database.
3. Uploaded .jpa file and kickstart.php (
www.akeebabackup.com/software/akeeba-kickstart.html
) file to the root directory.
4. Installed site using kickstart.php, following step by step instructions within kickstart.php.
5. Found many problems with your SQL database.
6. Directly edited the extracted file "joomla.s01" found in: installation/sql/
7. Removed all references to DATA DIRECTORY='./ZDS/' INDEX DIRECTORY='./ZDS/'
8. Re-uploaded this altered SQL file to the installation/sql directory.
9. Installed.
10. Done.
If you upload the attached sql file (that I've already altered) into your root/installation/sql folder and replace what you have there, the installation should work fine now.
