    Default Moved Host

    Hi I moved to a new host and I can't get zen cart running. The thing is I have my domain hosting with one company and hosting with another company. Could this be the issue with directory? I modified configure.php in admin and includes as instructed. www.chattunnel.com/store do I have to do something in mysql? I already created the database and uploaded the sql backup

    Based on the "3. Additional Details: includes/configure.php file contents invalid. ie: DIR_FS_CATALOG not valid or not set" message, it's clear that your configure.php file contents are not correct for the server you're running on.

    Here are the correct server-move instructions: http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?...fferent-server
    Did you skip any of those steps?

    And remember, the configure.php files are read-only, so you'll need to make them writable before you can make any changes to them.

    Drbyte your awesome and truly a sensie for the assistance to me. The way you instructed was much better then I was previously directed. I wish I would of found the link you provided earlier because the one I found just wanted me to edit the config files which was a disaster. Reinstalling and just replacing the old config files with the new was much easier and if I had not there would of been a huge amount of downtime trying to sort out the errors if at all even possible. Especially under my circumstance of having 2 different hosts one for domain and other for files. In signing up for my file hosting there was a corrected mistake so names aren't as they seem if that makes sense. Make this a sticky it will be really helpful for those who move to another host.
