Trouble Moving Cart to Root Folder

I am using v1.50 and everything was ok while developing the cart.
Now I want to move from a sub-folder (Example: mydomain.com/zencart) to a sub-domain (Example: shop.mydomain.com)

I understand the cache location needs to be updated under admin. and this was done.

I know that at least 4 items (maybe 6?) need to be changed in both includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php files but I can't seem to get the coding right.

This is an example the original.

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.mydomain.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.mydomain.com');

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/zencart/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/zencart/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/path1/path2/path3/mydomain.com/zencart/');
define('DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE', '/path1/path2/path3/mydomain/zencart/cache');


I would appreciate a cut and paste version of the correct code to suit the new sub-domain location of shop.mydomain.com.

Thanks in advance for the kind assistance of anyone ()that can help...

Simply a matter of removing zencart/ wherever it appears.

Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately that didn't work.

Has to work, really, but what happens after you make those changes ? A link to the site might let us spot something.

Thanks for your prompt responses and help.
I found another resource which gave me a clue on how to solve this.
I made a fresh installation, saved the two new configure files, then deleted the installation.
I copied the relevant parts of the new config files containing the correct paths to the old config files.

For reference here are the updated paths (maybe this will help solve this for someone else in the future);

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.shop.mydomain.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.shop.mydomain.com');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.shop.mydomain.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.shop.mydomain.com');

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '//');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '//');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/path1/path2/path3/shop/');
define('DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE', '/path1/path2/path3/shop/cache');


This now works :) except for one minor unknown issue...
I had a new admin theme set up but the admin section has somehow reverted back to the original zencart admin theme, even though all the files are the original ones in the new location.

Anyway, I'll figure it our or re-instal the admin theme.

Thanks again for your help.

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '//');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '//');

Part of your problem is the double // (in red) remove one so it looks like this

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

Thanks! That fixed the issue I was having. Looks like I'm all set. Thank you very much.
