tuppergreen Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Hi all, I'm changing a hosting service provider and need to migrate the full oscommerce site to the new account. My site is slightly modified with some contributions installed. The new account comes with Fantastico and I can set up default osCommerce at a fly, can I simply ftp all the existing source files to the new account? thanks in advance!

Yes, just ftp the files, export the database from the old site, import database to new site and then edit the two configure.php files to suit the new server. Should be as simple as that.

knifeman Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Several years ago I changed web hosts and the new host offered to transfer the files for me. I gave them the login for my existing host and they transferred everything. Tim Hi all, I'm changing a hosting service provider and need to migrate the full oscommerce site to the new account.

I'd suggest Siteground and they certainly do a free migrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
