Is it possible to move database between osc-s. I have one store set up with products and I am setting a new one up. Is it possible to do it without having to put them only one at a time?

 

I can move the language folders and it?s content like shipping.php, default.php, privacy.php but I need to move the product database too.

 

Best regards,

Back up the database on the current server and restore it on the new server. You can also do this with individual tables, but that can create inconsistent states (e.g. where a table entry references another table that did not get copied over).

 

Note: you will need to be using compatible versions of OSC, e.g. both MS1. You can also do this with the Easy Populate contribution if you only want the product tables. Install it on both, download from the current server, and upload to the new server.

 

Good luck,

Matt

Where is the product database located?

 

The thing is that the version I am moving all the products to is a newer snapshot which has the "sessions" feature which is a must for me. If I were to upload all the backup, will not the old version be running?
