    Default changed servers and I am really stuck!

    Have just changed to a new host. I transferred everything and it looked good in the admin area. Now since I changed the DNS to the new host also, the shopping cart has dropped off and I can't figure out how to fix it, yet it was going fine when I tested it in the admin area first.

    The zencart admin area is working - I can type in the address and get to the admin side, but the shopping cart public part says system setup required...

    All I have tried to do is edite the paths in the includes/configure.php file. But, its not changing anything. I am really stuck. I have asked the host for a bit of help but they are slow to respond so thought I might try my luck here...

    This is the script from the includes/config file: (spacing in domain name deliberate in this post.)

    "define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://miraclebaby . co . nz');
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://miraclebaby . co . nz');

    // Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?
    define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true');

    // NOTE: be sure to leave the trailing '/' at the end of these lines if you make changes!
    // * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
    // these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/estore/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/estore/');

    .......(cut for space here)....

    // * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)
    //the following path is a COMPLETE path to your Zen Cart files. eg: /var/www/vhost/accountname/public_html/store/
    define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/var/www/html/estore/');"

    I am totally confused - I changed it back to what it was when the host set it up:

    "define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://oscar.hosts.net');
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://oscar.hosts.net');

    // Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?
    define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true');

    // NOTE: be sure to leave the trailing '/' at the end of these lines if you make changes!
    // * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
    // these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/~admin134/estore/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/~admin134/estore/');

    ...(and so on)...

    // * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)
    //the following path is a COMPLETE path to your Zen Cart files. eg: /var/www/vhost/accountname/public_html/store/
    define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/var/www/html/estore/');"

    And it still doesn't work. The problem seems to be since the DNS was changed.

    However, the links for the admin area are the same and it is working...

    admin/includes reads:

    "define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://oscar.hosts.net');
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://oscar.hosts.net');
    define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://oscar.hosts.net');
    define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://oscar.hosts.net');

    // Use secure webserver for catalog module and/or admin areas?
    define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true');
    define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'true');

    // NOTE: be sure to leave the trailing '/' at the end of these lines if you make changes!
    // * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
    // these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
    define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/~admin134/estore/admin/');
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/~admin134/estore/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/~admin134/estore/admin/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/~admin134/estore/');"

    Default Re: changed servers and I am really stuck!

    Looks to me like there are some problems with your configure files.

    There shouldn't be a quotation mark at the beginning of
    "define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://miraclebaby . co . nz');
    and also from a visit to your site, I'd say that the the initial "<" is missing from your opening "<?php" tag invalidating the whole config file.
