Moving Site to New Server Using Temp Url

[kaiz]

Sorry I posted this in wrong place - can someone move it please or tell me how I can move it.

I have made a copy of my zencart site and moved it to a different server. I also transferred across the sql database.

It now says my paths are incorrect and I am not sure what to change. I tried to change the configure.php file but I couldn't see any paths in configuration.php file to change - is that correct?. The thing is the site is still on a temp url so this is confusing me a bit. I dont want to change nameservers for domain until shop is working. Can anyone point me in the right direction and see if my paths are correct please.

Currently shop displays this page: http://79.170.44.118/cecitokyo.com/ but this was not a new install so no need to install it again, its a copy of this working site http://www.yukitokyo.com/ which I want working on another server which is currently using a temp url.

Please can someone help. Zencart Version info & configure file below

Thanks so so so so much.

BTW - I know guidelines say to do a new Zencart Install and import database but I do not want to do this as the shop is heavily customized with lots of addons.

Thanks

My host just told me that a Zencart Shop cannot work on a temp URL - is that correct?

[cleontech]

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/79.170.44.118/cecitokyo.com/');

Change the define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); to define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/79.170.44.118/cecitokyo.com/');

I'm pretty sure cleontech's post above is giving you the wrong answer.

My host just told me that a Zencart Shop cannot work on a temp URL - is that correct?

No, that's not correct.

Follow this FAQ for all the steps for moving to another server and building the corresponding correct configure.php settings: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=100

I tried to change the configure.php file but I couldn't see any paths in configuration.php file to change - is that correct?.

Right. No changes to an files named "configuration.php". Only to "configure.php".
