Your TEST site is a whole new folder and new database. That's IN ADDITION TO what you've already got for your live site.
The idea is to set up an ADDITIONAL completely separate site for doing all your testing, so that your old site can stay "live" and making sales while you prepare your upgrade.
If you don't know how to create an ADDITIONAL (that's what we mean by "new") database, then talk to your hosting company for help.

Re: After 150 install/upgade my products are missing in Categories
Hi Dr Byte,
Okey, I think I understand what you mean.
I did the classic misstake of running zc_install by FTP-it directly to my server/host and from there running it via the browser as supposed to when going live/test, this way installing/upgrading to the LIVE store right away.
1)
So now what has happen is that I can see basically everything except my products/categories. Online or in the admin.
2) Now I have my database as per 139 and 150 zc_install via FTP online.
3)
When going LIVE do I need to re-install the entire Database?
4)
And I get gibberish fonts/letters to my Swedish language page, which isnt seen in the English selected page.
The Gibberish is seen like this, but dont know how to fix this. I made a question about it here http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...18#post1092718

Re: After 150 install/upgade my products are missing in Categories
Hi again,
I have a live site, no additional test site. Just the live site.
Now, the live site after installing 150 via zc_install, and having done nothing with the database, the categories and products show "0" both in admin and online cataloge.
I thought, right or wrong, that did not have to do anything with the database, because I installed 150 via zc_install onto the same server/folder what have you as the "old site" which was 139h.
Will I be able to activate the products/categores now, or will I have to re-register my products again?
I can live wit that, having to add my products again, only if there is something I must do to activate my products once again, then I like to do so.
but I dont now where to start.
Ps. I didnt touch the database, and not saved it locally or anything. I thought/hoped I could leave as is due to me zc_installing 150 on top of or what its called/upgrade/install.
I need to say that part form not seeing any products /categories, I can still view all modules and custom define pages and eveything, basically.
Thanks in advance
Stefan
