GemRock Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I did search with no luck :mellow: if yours is a serious business and cannot afford any downtime or problem then you should seek professional advice so that one could look at the details of the site and the two servers (old & new) to see if there would be any problems. reason i say this is because there is no one single solution that fits every site/server - they are general advice at best. or if your shop is just a kid's play ground thing, then do whatever you like, it does not matter does it?.

GemRock Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 well, at least at the mo it sounds like a kids play the fact that it is on a free server, doesn't it? 1. no. you need to download all files to your pc, unless the site is pretty much stock osc ie nothing changed; 2. no. the two configure.php files will likely need to change according to the new server; 3. that should be the first thing to do as you will need the name of db, db server, user name & password for the configure files.

GemRock Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 sorry just realise i may have mis-read your post. in fact that what you had found could be one of the way of going about it.

Sunny01 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I, too had problems with finding out how to complete a move...in my case, my client chose a web host company that chose to move the site without informing either her or I and 2 days after they moved, I was emailing the "web-hosting company" <LOL> that subbed out my client's site "Where are my images, DB, and all of the other items I need to update her site???". Took me a few hours to research and fix, but I did. What would it take to pin the steps to the top of this forum? If all of you have seen the questions appear on a regular basis, if it was pinned, you would have time for other endeavors. I want to add my sincere thanks to this community. Without it, osCommerce would not be the entity it has become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
