captainbohica Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Ok... I was installing the PEF contribution on a TEST SITE... I attempted to bring those changes over to my LIVE SITE.... and I messed that up and didn't have the backups to my LIVE SITE. So I copied all the files from my TEST SITE to my LIVE SITE to essentially start over. Here's my problem now.. When I go to try to log into my LIVESITE/admin, it automatically REDIRECTS ME to my TESTSITE/admin. How can I fix this? are there any other considerations I need to think of since copying all my files from my test site to the live site? Thanks again for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainbohica Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 what about potential database problems? My TEST SITE created osc2 database, while my live site created osc1.... i have really nothing on either database, so couldn't I just point the new live site to the osc2 database?

sLaV- Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Have you checked your configure files?? /catalog/includes/configure.php AND /catalog/admin/includes/configure.php make sure their pointing to your live site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainbohica Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 edit: i edited the includes/configure.php file and i am finally at the correct login page ... I see that now its pointing to the osc2 database so i guess i should be using that and can delete the other one (right?) NOW my problem is... the categories from my original live site (reference chargercards.com) are still on the homepage, BUT DO NOT APPEAR ON THE ADMIN SIDE. now what?

CAN I DELETE THE 'OLD' one? from the original live site? Also - now the homepage categories (0) match whats in the admin side (0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also - now the homepage categories (0) match whats in the admin side (0) If your current live site is using the 'new' database and you've made sure that all the products and info are actually in the 'new' database then yes you can delete the old one (make sure your new one contains all the products/categories BEFORE deleting the old one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
