    application error Move zencart to root directory

    Hi, what do I have to do to move the zencart to the root of my domain, I currently have it setup as a folder within the domain so it looks like this currently: http://mysite.com/zen-cart

    I would like it so that when you go to http://mysite.com that will be my store? I am just not sure what I would have to change.

    Default Re: Move zencart to root directory

    If you look at the structure of your Zen Cart download, you will see what files and directories belong in the root ...

    You need to move everything up 1 level from /zen-cart to /

    Then, you need to edit the 2 configure.php files:
    /includes/configure.php
    /admin/includes/configure.php

    Be sure to download them from the server to your computer as these are the current files ...

    Then change anything that is:
    /zen-cart/ to read /

    Example:
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/zen-cart/');

    Would become:
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');

    And something like:
    define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/zen-cart/admin/');

    Would become:
    define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/');
