Transfer from Yahoo hosting to my server - what a pain!

Hey all...

 

I would be forever in-debted to anyone that can help me in this matter!

 

Here's the long story short.... We're moving the OsCommerce db from a Yahoo server to my servers as Yahoo Hosting SUCKS and does not allow .htacces (so we can use the SEO friendly URLs for the store, on yahoo's server)

 

I have another domain name up and operating on my server (which is apache/linux and allows for .htaccess) located here www.v-leds.com/catalog

 

As you can see I am getting this error: ! Warning: The downloadable products directory does not exist: /catalog/download/. Downloadable products will not work until this directory is valid.

 

(I am looking at both sites www.frickinbrite.com currently still working on the Yahoo servers and www.v-leds.com/catalog on my server we moved the MySQL db over and are still coming up with errors)

 

My goal is to move the one db from Yahoo to my server w/o any errors so that I can remove frickinbrite.com from the Yahoo DNS and transfer that to my server as well! But I'm afraid to make that move until we can make the store work on v-leds.com

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Your first step is to update your includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php. You need edit you paths to point to the right domain name.

Other great Open Source (Free) programs: (Free as in free speech not free beer)

The Gimp - An image program. | Firefox - All you have to do is add the Web Developer add-on to make this web browser complete. | FileZilla - An ftp program. | Inkscape - A good program to create images with. | Thunderbird - An email program. | Openoffice.org - An office suite that is compatible with MS Office. | Abiword - Another office suite. | Audacity - A sound recording tool. | ddp's Picks | Wordpress - An easy to use blogging software. | Joomla - An easy to use CMS that has ecommerce plug-ins. | Drupal - Another CMS

How do I find these programs? Google Search!

Thanks Nate... got that squared away... And the site is actually working (showing all of the products) I still have the error about downloadable products (which this site doesn't carry) So I tried going into the Admin area to turn off the downloadable products (turn it to false) but can't get into the admin panel...

 

I think it may have something to do with the Certs not having been moved to my servers yet for the SSL cert that is still functioning on the yahoo server? (hopefully that made sense)

 

These are the errors I'm getting:

 

Warning: main(includes/languages/english/login.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/wwwvle/public_html/catalog/admin/login.php on line 58

 

Warning: main(includes/languages/english/login.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/wwwvle/public_html/catalog/admin/login.php on line 58

 

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/languages/english/login.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/wwwvle/public_html/catalog/admin/login.php on line 58

 

Again any help would be greatly appreciated!

Its difficult to diagnose this - check your configure file or post it here minus your database info

now you'll notice the frickinbrite is still in this file because that's where the Certs to the SSL are... can I pull that out for the time being? Is that the problem? Grrrrrrrrrr I'm an SEO guy this is really not my cup o tea!
