Moving mySQL

It's me again! :'(

I will start from the beginning.

I have two domain names. www.myfirstdomain.ca and www.my_second_domain.ca (not real of course)

I set up my oscommerce site on the www.myfirstdomain.ca because the second was not available. I now have the second domain (www.my_second_domain.ca), which is my company name. I now need to transfer ALL my data and files over to the new domain.

 

I have one (1) host and both domains are pointing to the same site.

When I set up Oscommerce I put all my data (products) in the catalog folder.

So the path to my site would be www.myfirstdomian.ca/catalog

I have copied every thing from that path to the main path: /html (which is the public folder) The name of the mySql database is myfirstdomain.ca_oscommerce.

When I check the links on all my pics they all point to the first domain.

Now, when I open my site I get my index page. The url is correct. When I click on any of the category links I am taken to an error page.

 

How Do I transfer everything to my company domain, have the links changed to where the images are now stored and have everything work the way it use to?

by the way, I don't know anything about mysql.

 

Thanks Again.

You have to edit 2 files...

 

includes/configure.php

admin/includes/configure.php

 

When you edit these files you will see domainname1.. change the links to domainname2... this will fix the problem you are having...

I changed the files as you suggested. It did nothing to help.

 

Any more ideas.
