I have done all my work on a osc windows package. Now im gonna switch over to linux and im getting problems with just overwrite those unix files with windows files. Is there a big difference between them? I really need my "old" files on the "new" installation. Btw, i dl the unix packaged and ran /install/install.php from that one on my linux box.

 

Thanks for fast answers!

 

Happy new year,

there is only ONE package...

 

it is distributed in a few different formats though...

 

a ZIP file for windows users since ZIP is the common file compression for windows

 

and a Tar.Gz for linux/unix since that is the common file compression for linux/unix

 

the files inside each "package" are exactly the same... no difference.

When building a new Oscommerce site, I use a windows machine. When I'm happy with the way it looks/behaves, I simply FTP all of the files *exactly as are* onto the Unix webserver.

 

Then I reconfigure both of the configure.php files, set CHMOD on some others and thats it. Done.
