    Default copy database to another zencart site

    I am producing another Zencart site and want to import all data at one go from my old zencart site, can this be done?
    I am on version 1.3.6 PHP 4.3.9.

    The second site is with another service provider.

    Is it possible with easy populate?

    Thanks

    Easy Populate will handle products, not your entire database (customers/orders/etc..)

    Thanks for replying Tina, but there seems no quick fix for this.

    Cheers

    Take a backup of your files and database.
    Upload the files to the new server.
    Create a new database on the new server.
    Import your existing database into the new database.
    Make the required changes in the two configure.php files.
    includes/configure.php
    admin/includes/configure.php
    It works for me

    Copying the database and using it on another store is relatively straight forward as Sarad indicates, but there's a little more to it and it's vital that you check a few things once you've got the copy running on the other server/website.

    1. Run the fix_cache_key.php file (lots of info on this forum).
    2. Check all embedded full URL paths (particularly ezpages).
