    Default changing domain name in XP for Zen store

    Hi,
    I have a test version of Zen cart localy on my pc. When installing zen cart I had to make a domain in Windows XP. In my map :C: \WINDOWS\system32\
    drivers\etc\hosts , I did this by inserting my domain with the following code:

    127.0.0.1 http://www.example.com # For browser access
    127.0.0.1 mail.example.com # For email access
    127.0.0.1 example.com # For mercury mail server

    So far everything worked just fine , but then I wanted to change the domain name again to my real domain and not something like example.com...
    I did this in C: \WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts ,by inserting this code :

    127.0.0.1 http://www.myrealdomain.com # For browser access
    127.0.0.1 mail.myrealdomain.com # For email access
    127.0.0.1 myrealdomain.com # For mercury mail server

    When I now go to www.myrealdomain.com I am well connected to
    www.myrealdomain.com/store in my browser, but when I click on one of the links of my home page, I am redirected to the old url (www.example.com)

    Can anyone help me with this one?

    Idea or Suggestion Re: changing domain name in XP for Zen store

    did you change the DOMAIN in your two configure.php files, ones in /admin/includes and the other is /includes/
