Error in transfered osCommerce

[kurtissn]

We have just transfered our web site and osCommerce to SiteGround.com. The shopping cart was transfered mostly by SiteGround. Now that the DNS servers point to the transfered site, I'm trying to restore the latest MySQL backup. If I do to admin and select TOOLS - BACKUP, I get "Error: Backup directory does not exist. Please set this in configure.php." but admin/includes/config.php says define('DIR_FS_BACKUP', DIR_FS_ADMIN . 'backups/'); and the backup directory DOES exist with 2 backup SQL files in it.

 

If I go to TOOLS- FILE_MANAGER to check, I get

 

Warning: dir(/catalog/) [function.dir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/bobsclam/public_html/catalog/admin/file_manager.php on line 178

 

Fatal error: Call to a member function read() on a non-object in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/catalog/admin/file_manager.php on line 179

 

NOTE: I have changed the actual path to xxxxxxxx in the line above for this email.

 

Any help would be appreciated

 

Thanks

Have you checked that the contents of both your configure.php files point to your new site?

Don't know why but if I change

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/catalog/');

to

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/bobsclam/public_html/catalog/;

in both configure.php files, then FILE MANAGER works ????????

 

Don't know why but at least it's working.

Now I find at SiteGround under "How to transfer my osCommerce from one host to another?"

 

DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT - the absolute path to your shop, e.g. /home/user/public_html/shop/:

EXAMPLE: define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/user/public_html/shop/');
