    Default Changed Hosts - Problems

    I recently changed hosts. I downloaded my old site which had zen cart and uploaded to ftp on new server. I uploaded all content and now a blank page shows. The page points to zc_install which is not there. So I'm guessing this is the problem. But everything else, files etc.. from the old cart are still there. Do I have to start from scratch and install a new zen cart. I had someone design my site, but I did all the admin stuff, but would like to avoid having to do it all over again if possible. Does anyone know what I have to do? Thanks, DB

    I didn't get the database backup, I guess I'll need that if I go about the process located in the faq section. Thanks for the support. DB
