how to change configure.php for a testsite in a sub directory?

[bbyyaa]

I am testing our site in a sub directory before go live. The whole thing is in the subdirectory "testsite". How do I change the configure.php to reflect that? I used # to sub for the actual number here.

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://##.##.###.###/#'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://##.##.###.###/#'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('ENABLE_SSL', true); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '##.##.###.###');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'https://##.###.###.###');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');

define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');

define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');

define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');

define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');

define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');

define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

 

define('DIR_WS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', 'pub/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/var/www/vhosts/oursite.com/httpdocs/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');

 

// define our database connection

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'xxxx');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'xxxxxxxx');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'xxxx');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persisstent connections?

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql');

I noticed there are configure.php at the /includes/ and /admin/incldues/ also. How do I change those two?

Thanks for any help in advance.

You'd need to change both config.php files. If I'm not mistaken (which I could well be), you'd simply use http://www.yoursite.com/test on the first two lines (https on line two if your SSL is already installed). If that doesn't do it, I'd try adding test/ to the other lines. The line that defines your absolute path (DIR_FS_CATALOG) would also need to include the /test/ folder. The DB settings won't be affected. If I'm way off on this, I'm sure one of the more experienced members will jump in and get you hooked up. Otherwise, try my suggestions in order from the beginning, if at first you don't succeed, try the next, and so forth. Make a backup before changing anything, then if we totally screw something up, you're covered.

 

Namasté,

Thanks! I found out all I have to do is put /testsite after all the code involved the path.

server, cookie_domain, and FS_CATALOG for main configure.php and /includes/configure.php and /admin/includes/congifure.php

None of these options seemed to work for me =\

 

Here is my live shop

http://vesproinc.com/shop/

 

Here is my test-shop

http://vesproinc.com/shop-test/

 

My problem is when i go to the test-shop, the index page loads fine, but when i try to navigate to other pages, i'm always redirected to the main shop (this happens when i try to run locally on my computer as well)

 

I've tried about every obvious configuration I can think of.

 

FYI, i did export the live shop db and then import it into the test shop db...

 

//// Would i need to change something in the db?

 

 

Here are the 2 live shop config files (lives in folder named shop, not in root)...

 

//// Could someone please tell me what changes i would need to make in the 2 config files and anywhere else to get my shop running in a folder named shop-test?

 

BTW, i have not made any changes to htaccess files, but so you know, i know nothing about htaccess files on top of that. =\

 

Thank you so much in advance!!
