Post-move niggles

[shanesoine]

Hi all have just got thro moving site to new hosting service and all was pretty painless, have even manages to install an addon - BUT having sniveled for so long about hosting with Yahoo cpanel is a whole new world. Trouble is I seem to be a bit lost in it.

Using 1.3.9f site is stripeyfrog dot com

How do I change the Home link in the navMainWrapper to go to stripeyfrog not my host/..

I have checked both configure files and both the http and https are set to stripey.. but when i use firebug can see it goes to <a href="http://ecbiz71.inmotionhosting.com/~stripe10/">Home</a>

Can also see that I have soome strange things in my configure files
the one in admin reads:

// 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', '/store/tfzs51Hope/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/store/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/store/tfzs51Hope/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/store/');

which was my old info have changed admin name on new server, Pretty sure I did not upload old one as i took it out of the backup folder?

Can I just change the refs to the new admin name and get rid of /store/ as i dont use a sub-directory

Where am I going wrong?

Many thanks for help

FTP the configure to your local pc

Open it and see what is there

Edit it and save it locally

With FTP rename the server one and transfer your edited one

[dropbop]

As kobra said, you need to rename the configure.php file on the server before uploading the one from your local machine. (rename to something like configure.php.bak)

The configure.php files permissions dont allow you to overwrite it using ftp which is why you need to either rename it on the server or remove it so you can upload your new one.
So even if you think you have uploaded the new file, it may not have actually overwritten the old one on the server.

How that helps.

All the best
