Where can I find the database containing product info

[Criz]

Hello,

 

Can anyone help me out and tell me where I can find the general dbase with all the product information of my store? I have no idea where to look, it must be very simple and must have overlooked it.

 

Thanks!

 

Chris

installocation/admin/

i.e. the customer side is at /catalog/default.php

the admin side /admin/default.php

Take a look at the following file:

 

Version 2.1: /catalog/includes/application_top.php

 

Version 2.2-CVS: /catalog/includes/configure.php

 

In these files you will find settings related to the database server. They look like this:

 

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'user');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'password');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'osc');

 

From these lines you can see the name of the database your products are stored in. Using something like PHPMyAdmin you can edit these tables directly. WARNING: Changing the database directly can cause serious problems.
