Guest Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Hi A short question... If i only have access to one database and i would like to have a second OsC-store on my server, is it possible to change the beginning of the database tables in the SQL-file before the installation of OsC and get it work properly without any fuss to the previously installed OsC? What i mean with change the table is from (CREATE TABLE `address_book) to (CREATE TABLE `osc2_address_book)? Is this possible or do i have to change thousands of lines of code inside the php-files??? Thanx for your input.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwalker Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I would imagine that you would have to find and change all the table names in the .sql file to the new table names. Then you probably would need to do a massisive find/replace within the .php files too. They'll be still referencing to the old table names. Make sure you backup your complete database and site before attempting it though.

Thanx for your input.... Take a look in the contributions, search for multi store or similar terms. This has already been done so no need to reinvent the wheel. The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing. Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems? There are many very useful osC Contributions Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!! You did backup, right??

Thanks for sharing that. I haven't had need to do it, and this will definitely serve me good. I wouldn't want to do it the way I suggested if there is something that already does it. I'm gonna get me one.
