I am changing web hosting service. How do you move the cart to a new server. I have never moved a database before.

 

Thank you.

1) Download all your store files (i.e. everything inside your catalog directory) to your hard drive.

2) Dump the database to a text (SQL) file - either using the Backup Tool in the Admin Tool or PhpMyAdmin.

3) Upload the files from your hard drive to your new hosting account.

4) Run the SQL file on the database (make sure you have recreated the usernames and passwords)

5) Update the configure.php files with the new details.
