Moving folder problems despite following wiki

[johnybravo]

High Everyone, I'm running into a bit of trouble whilst moving my site to another folder. I am experimenting with a new look but want to keep the old site running in a different folder.
I have moved all the files to a folder called "upload" and followed the instructions here
http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.p...Change_Folders

The admin side is working fine but images and links on the main webpage are all going to the old pages i.e. without the "upload" in the link.

Pulling my hair out a bit.
you can see what is happening here:
www.curvesandcorsets.com/upload/index.php

I would be very grateful if anyone could shed a light as to what is going wrong.
Here is my upload/includes/configure.php file:

in the upload/includes/configure.php did you change the permissions before you saved it? it automatically goes back to read-only on the first page load. Sometimes it's helpful to rename the current configure.php, upload the new one and then delete the old one.

[johnybravo]

yup, it's 777

Does the file look the same via file manager in your cPanel?

[johnybravo]

I'm not familiar with the file manager in the cp...

Are you using a URI rewriter or redirects in your .htaccess? All the links and images are pointing back to the main store, also there is code in the page that is assigning values to the variable: manufacturers_sidebox_uri_mappings which seems to imply that there is a mapping manager of some type going on here.

Also, the database that is being used to support this backup site, is it the live database, or a copy of that database? What version of ZC is being used? Has the fix_cache_key utility been used on the database to update it? (Realize that if in ZC 1.5.3, although it is supposed to autocorrect the cache key, if the original files are still present/available on the system then ZC 1.5.3 will not correct the cache_key because of the check that is performed to identify the need to update the database key.)

The data base is a completely separate one to the now active site (i have 2 data bases). I have an seo rewriter installed and I'm using 1.3.9h

Since you are wanting to keep one running while testing the other, what about the steps at http://www.zen-cart.com/entry.php?3-...-of-upgrading?

[johnybravo]

there doesn't seem to be anything obvious in there, i'm trying to turn off the seo remapping but having no luck at the moment.

More than likely the .htaccess file at the root of your uri has a rewrite in it that may be modifying the overall process, or the fact that it is still included in the backup, there may be a "setting" that needs to be modified to recognize the additional folder name. The fact though that no link properly includes the subdirectory, somewhat points back to the .htaccess file in my opinion.
