Can't access drupal 6 pages after migration

Please I just moved a drupal 6 site from a Suse Linux server where its working well to a Mac lion server where i have set up a test domain for it. I have successfully imported the existing database and configured settings.php with exactly the same database name, username, password and server name. when i enter the url of the test domain on the server, I can see the index page of the site but when i click on any of the links, i get an error message like this one "The requested URL /content/about was not found on this server."

Please does anyone have an idea on how i can solve this problem? I copied the entire sites folder and database including the .htaccess folder.

Thanks.

First, try to access the internal pages using ?q=. e.g. site.com/?q=admin. And disable clear URL.

Make sure you have uploaded drupal's default .htaccess file to your websites root. Apparently because you worked on MAC, you forgot to upload the .htaccess file, because it's hidden by default.

Hope this helps.
