Guest Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 My current web hosting provider on which I use OSCommerce, sent me an email stating they are changing to a new MySQL server with a new IP address. Is there anything I need to change in OSCommerce?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anything I need to change in OSCommerce?? Yes - this must be changed in the two configure.php files (one in ../catalog/includes/configure.php and one in your admin folder ../includes/configure.php). Find and change this line - define('DB_SERVER', 'your_mysql_IP_address_here'); If your hosting provider has setup a DNS name for the mysql server, such as mysql.hostdomain.com, you could put this in instead, then no matter what he changes the IP address to, your configuration will always point to the proper server, once he updates the IP address in the DNS name.
