    Default Problem when moving zen cart to another folder

    I am almost ready to publish my cart, and put it on review.

    I have moved my folder from PUBLIC_HTML/ECOMMERCE to PUBLIC_HTML, following the recommendations from the tutorial "I have installed Zen Cart to a directory. How do I rename or move that directory?"
    aka changing the configuration session in admin AND modifying these folders, as instructed:
    Your /includes/configure.php and /admin/includes/configure.php files are used to point Zen Cart™ to the right folders. In those files, you need to update several entries to match the new path information:
    DIR_WS_CATALOG
    DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG
    DIR_FS_CATALOG
    DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE
    DIR_WS_ADMIN (in admin)
    DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN (in admin)
    DIR_FS_ADMIN (in admin)


    It almost worked, but I have lost the presentation and images on my website, as well as access to the admin.

    I have downloaded the fix cache key file.

    I am not sure I understand what means "run it". Same as "open it" ?? Well I opened it, nothing happened... I am doomed, or dumb...

    Please help, I am missing a clue, I am sure it is right there in front of me but I cannot see it.

    Thanks

    Did you move all the Zen Cart folders and files to the root from /ecommerce?

    Checkout your base url below
    Code:
    <base href="http://aheartfortheearth.com/public_html/" />
    Better double check those configure.php files again.

    The correct path is a web path, make sure you check the notes in the file for tips on the trailing / or not as well.

    Default Re: Problem when moving zen cart to another folder

    In my
    includes/configure.php and
    admin/includes/configure.php files,

    if my zen cart is under /public_html directly, am I supposed to write, let say for example:
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/public_html/');

    or do I have to write:
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '//');
