Moving installation directory

[jkchang]

Hi guys,

 

We're about ready to launch and our installation was done in host.com/osC/catalog

 

I am planning to move the catalog to public_html so that it will be the defaulted site when going to www.mysite.com

 

I know there are 2 files I must edit to make sure they are in line with file locations (includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php).

 

Are there any other files I am required to edit ?

 

Thank you,

Jeff

I think I'm after the same answer as well....except I just went ahead and posted another topic asking for esentially the same inofrmation without noticing this topic.

 

Sorry everybody.

I just took the risk hahaha.

 

Move all files from /catalog/ to public_html/

 

All the files from /osCommerce/ should be moved to /home/username/

 

Rename /osCommerce/catalog/admin/.htaccess (file) to reflect the changes so that the admin password works (i scared myself right here lol)

 

Rework all the configure.php files (includes/, admin/includes/) to reflect the changes

 

Voila!

 

Good luck everyone =]

I just managed to do it,

but when I hit the "top" link in the nav bar it sends me to an "index of" page. oops

Any ideas anyone?

Are all your configure.php files edited correctly? It should return you to your domain

 

If it's giving Index of [file listing of that directory] then try adding a "/" at the end of the domain
