Proble accessing the website after Restore

[yhijaz]

Hi ,

I am no specialist , but had to restore 2 files from the Shop Website backup saved on my PC.
After this I had to restore the whole /html directory , still does not work ( white pages are displayed )
Have no idea what is the problem .
Would appreciate if somebody guides .
thanks

What version of Zencart ?

[yhijaz]

Thanks for answering !
It is a very old version from 2009 :-(
Could it be the format of the files which were transfered from my PC ?
Or must I do something on the PHP database ?

1.3.8 version

[yhijaz]

could it be directory/file permissions ?

Blamk page errors should create error log files, but in that old Zencart version, you'll need to install this to access them:

http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=606

An explanation of what files you had to replace and why would help, too.

Hi Stevesh ,

it was a permission issue .
I replaced the FTP sw i had on my PC to FileZilla . and restarted the transfer of the whole shop files . now th eShop is functioning .
But I have a BIGBIGBIG problem : The shop ( including orders , customers , items ) are on the state of 2009 .
How Would I Sync with the PHP database ? or this is not possible .

cheers
