Moving site from Windows to Linux

I've been developing a site on a windows machine and am now ready to go live on a Linux server. Except nothing's working on the new server :(

I've changed the url-settings and imagemagick path. I've uploaded all files (cleared cache first), chmod 755 everything, chmod 777 on var/ and I have dumped the database and updated the server database.

Nothing happens, on the admin I get this:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 120 seconds exceeded in /path-to-ez/lib/eztemplate/classes/eztemplatemultipassparser.php on line 356
Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish its request

The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.

On the site I get basically the same:

Notice: Undefined variable: GLOBALS in /home/2/e/entartetemusik/www/shop/lib/ezutils/classes/ezdebug.php on line 1807

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 120 seconds exceeded in /path-to-ez/lib/eztemplate/classes/eztemplatemultipassparser.php on line 357
Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish its request

The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.

There is no debug information available.

When I run ls -l in the shell it looks a bit weird:

Another weird thing, I installed ez in a folder named shop:

drwxr-xr-x   16 entartetemusik entartetemusik     4096 Jan 19 00:12 shop/

but accessing http://url/shop/ gives the following:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /shop/ on this server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

I'm also interested in a procedure which describes the deployment of an ez Publish website from a windows development machine to a production server.

I found the following tread: http://ez.no/community/forum/general/moving_from_development_box_to_live_website/re_moving_from_development_box_to_live_website__2

Does anybody know if there is a step by step explanation of the procedure available?

thx!

@Christian: The message is clear enough: maximum execution time of 120s exceeded.

Almost all ISP's have a execution time limit for PHP. If the site has to build everything from scratch (cache cleared) and the server is not all that fast (virtual host with 200+ sites running?) that could have been the problem.

That doesn't seem very likely... I even tried timeout on 720, still times out, nothing prints. Just a big white page. No errors, no nothing. What can be happening?

Christian, on proper hardware and software configuration first time run of eZ publish (tpl compilation, language file compilation) should be less then default 30s. I suggest to take a look on eZ partners hosting offer.
http://ez.no/partner/worldwide_ez_publish_partners/(profile)/hosting

What you can do is:
- try to disable TextTranslation in [RegionalSettings] if you using other language then default, language files compilation always takes a lot of resources.
- if you have access to shell try compile your templates using eztc.php script if not ask administrator for help
- check error.log file in var/log dir

Well, I know the hosting is up for it. I originally ran the site on the hosting partner, moved it to a windows machine for developing, and then back. Now it doesn't do anything.

The error log has no interesting information. A couple of notes about not being able to connect to mysql yesterday, but nothing when I tried today. Also tried to connect manually to the mysql server with the config values and it worked fine.
