Problems making a clone site

[gruntre69]

Hi all,

I have a highly customised shop running 1.3.7 which is working perfectly. I have a second business running a CMS on a ASP system and I want to move it to the same host as my Zen shop and also run it on zen.

For testing I would like to make a copy of my existing zen site and install a new applezen template and get it working on a sub directory of the existing web space.

I want it to be a clone so that all the functionality mods are kept and both sites are the same version, rather than starting from scratch.

I have done most of this including a copy of the database and the admin works OK but only the home page seems to work in the catalogue. When I click any link other than home, it takes me to the existing site and switches databases.

Existing shop is in the root directory (waycool.com.au/) and the test copy is underneath (waycool.com.au/testtc/)

I've change both of the configure files to the location of the subdirectory. Is there some other file that needs changing to make the test cart work in the subdirectory??

Is ther some reason this won't work??

Make sure BOTH configure.php files point to the new location AND the new database.

As far as I can tell I have already done that.

Found the problem to be SEO URL. When this was turned off all the links started working.

No idea why though.
