Another buggy problem I have found:
When you log into administrator it says this:
---------------------------
Following PHP Server Settings are not optimal for Security and it is recommended to change them:
* PHP register_globals setting is `ON` instead of `OFF`
Please check the Official Joomla! Server Security post for more information.
--------------------------
Here is the file globals.php:

---------------------------------------------
As you can see the way this file is set; the admin/index2.php page should not be displaying this:
Following PHP Server Settings are not optimal for Security and it is recommended to change them:
* PHP register_globals setting is `ON` instead of `OFF`
Please check the Official Joomla! Server Security post for more information.
Any Ideas on why it is still saying this even though the file is set correctly for "register_globals" to be OFF
Thanks I am hoping I can fix these two bugs and salvage usage of this migration!
