Importing Data Base


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

 

Can anyone help me out here?

 

I have made a new installation and have the data base from my old store which I would like to import so I can use it on my new store. I need help or advise in doing this, I have searched the forum and can't find any info on this and am desperate.

 

 

Many thanks in advance.

If the stores are using different versions of osc then follow the upgrade instruction contained in the new osc package. Normally in the install directory.

 

If the db is on the same server you can just point to it by editing you 2 configure.php files.

 

If they are on 2 different hosts, use the export option in phpmyadmin, then import the results, once again using phpmyadmin.

Thanks for your help I will give it a go. Both of the data bases are on the same server.

 

Thanks again
