Server Move - Basedir Errors

[skustes]

That is the correct path. Any other ideas or should I just fresh install it and then overwrite everything but the config files?

It seems you must have missed some steps.
Here's the FAQ on switching from one server to another: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=100

Thanks Dr. Byte. Working through that currently. I'm to the "upload the old files" part. Hopefully this works. Will let you know in the morning. Thanks for your help Vger and Dr. B.

Still no dice. My errors are now:

Warning: session_save_path() [function.session-save-path]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/content/b/e/e/beerdolierman/html/cache) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/skustes:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/skustes/public_html/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 151

I can't get it to run http://www.beerdolier.com/fix_cache_key.php Any advice? It ran with the demo data on the fresh install, but once I uploaded the new files and the database, it quit. Should I be looking in the db or the files?

[DrByte]

I'm not sure what is preventing fix_cache_key from running, but it looks like you're going to have to either change the session directory via the admin *before* taking another backup of your database, or if that's not possible, do the change manually via phpMyAdmin.

To do the same thing as fix_cache_key via phpMyAdmin, look up the DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE value from your configure.php file built by running zc_install on the new server. Then go into phpMyAdmin and open the configuration table. Do a search for SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY on the configuration_key field. Then change that field's value to the value defined for DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE on the new server. That's all fix_cache_key does.

Then you should be able to use your site fine.

might I suggest that you take your host up on their offer

Ecommerce (Zen Cart) Free basic install or transfer

odds are that you have a file or 2 that are corrupt ( all dumped on 1 line.... )

That is the correct path. Any other ideas or should I just fresh install it and then overwrite everything but the config files?

Admin > Configuration > Sessions

Change "Session Directory" to use: /home/skustes/public_html/cache

Other than that, contact your Hoster as mentioned and they can fix you up... lickity split!

Got it! Had to go into the database manually and change that key. The site is mostly up and running now. Thanks all!
