please help me

Answer 1

This occurs when the base link urls are not changed in the table core_config_data (records with the following path column).

web/secure/base_url
web/secure/base_link_url
web/unsecure/base_url
web/unsecure/base_link_url

You must clear the cache after changing them. This also occurs if the var/cache folder is not writable and the cache is written in the OS default tmp folder.

Answer 2

You can use command

$ bin/magento setup:store-config:set --base-url=your.magento.url
$ bin/magento setup:store-config:set --base-url-secure=your.magento.url

to set site urls.

Answer 3

You need to change urls in database.

Table core_config_data

You need to look for this values in path column:

web/secure/base_url
web/unsecure/base_url

And change their values to https://unbeatablewatches.com for secure and http://unbeatablewatches.com for unsecure.

I don't know if you have some access to the database, it would be good if you could use phpmyadmin.
