[colorama]

I recently changed server for my web hosting. i transferred everything over and changed file names in config.php. I installed that program to reset admin but coulnt "run" the program. when i go to my website it comes up with zens error page saying something changed. when i run the downloaded troubleshooting program it stills goes that same page. need much help

Need a url to see what error.

Also I suggest you write the error name in google and the word zen cart and you are likely to link to someone else's post whom had same issue.

Hello,

What was the procedure you used to move your website?

ie you backed it up from old server?

Installed Zen cart on new server?

Did Zen cart load or work BEFORE you replaced and files.

It must be installed and working before you replace any files.

Are you upgrading Zen cart? Or using same version?

I would be checking your file paths in the configure files.

Connect via FTP to view file path.

I assume you created a database?

you named the database the same as the old website.

You also used the same password. This reflects in your configure files?

Double/triple check everything.

I initialized my database and then MyAdmin. when i went to enter myadmin it would no longer take the username and password. Is there a list of all the files that need to be changed and what to change in them? i really tried to get them all but i obviously have missed some. There has to be an easier way. can I possibly re-install a new version of zen and then restore my copy. I dont want to do that right now i just want a quick fix to get back online and then fix it proper later.

To get things goign for now I suggest.

Find out what versin of Zen Cart you are using or were using.

Install this version with your new Web Host.

(You will have to create your database in your new host cpanel BEFORE installing Zen cart)

To make it easier name the database the SAME as the old webhost. If this doesn't happen thats ok.. just might be easier.

Once this is installed and the ADMIN is working.

Here are some steps:
