... along with the rest of the osCommerce code of course, plus not forgetting to alter your catalog/includes/configure.php and catalog/admin/includes/configure.php to contain the settings for your new server. :)

The question was images, not a total store migration ????

They would be in yout images folder, are you moving the entire store as failsafe implied?

[Guest]

they are not in your database, well only in name.

They exist in a folder called images either inside the catalog folder of if store is root just images

Let's get this straight. Your images are NOT in your database, only their file names are there.

 

To get the images themselves (i.e. all the .gif and .jpg image files with the actual pictures in) you will have to copy them from wherever you originally uploaded them to. If that is on a different server, then your best bet is to download them from your old server and then upload them to your new server, perhaps by using an FTP program.

 

Your images are stored in the catalog/images directory, and its various sub directories. There will probably be subdirectories containing images for categories and manufactuers too.

It would be best to post your url at this stage.

[Guest]

I am having this same problem.

 

Fresh install of OSC and uploaded all my images to new server. but in the store all it shows is a broken image icon. How can I redirect so i dont have to upload all of my images again?
