mochi Posted September 28, 2006 Author Posted September 28, 2006 I need to put my store on a new server, how do i do this without having to reconfigure the entire catalog? Ok this is what i did...I installed Oscommerce on the new server and then replaced the catalog folder with the catalog folder from my already configured Shopping cart that was on the old server. when I try to access the cart I get this error message: Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user '*****'@'i********' (using password: YES) in /homepages/39/*******/htdocs/catalog/includes/functions/database.php on line 19 Unable to connect to database server! is there somewhere i can change the username and password to access the new database??? * Removed data for security
natewlew Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 You need to edit the /includes/configure.php and the /admin/includes/configure.php. Those files are where you set your database information and you paths. If you installed the default OSC then replaced the your old catalog folder with the new one you still won't have your store items. What you need to do is take the /includes/configure.php and the /admin/includes/configure.php that were in the default install and place them in your old catalog. That way you will have the right database information and the right paths. You still need a backup of your old database and import it into your new one.

Guest Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Afternoon, I seem to be experiancing the same problem. I have change both configure.php files and uploaded them to over write the default files. I have also uploaded the backed up data base to mySQL. I can load my index page up on the site, but with not active links on their, and my admin page has the the following warning. Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user '*****'@'*********' (using password: YES) in /home/******/s/*********/user/htdocs/catalog/admin/includes/functions/database.php on line 19 Unable to connect to database server! Hope you guys can help, and be a life saver. Regards Richard Smart * Removed data for security
