    Default Moving store to new server

    OK I have a question regarding moving zen-cart to a new server.

    I was going to copy the file structure and the mysql database but the issue is..

    mysql settings will be different, and url of the store will be different.

    Is this just in a config table of the database or a file somewhere that I can change to reflect the new settings once I get it in?

    Thanks in advance.

    Default Re: Moving store to new server

    The major file pointing is in the 2 configure.php files

    I would make a complete DB backup and then one with just the configuration table form the current site.

    In the config table there are usually a couple of referneces to the /home/???/??? location and are at about record 240-250 and these need to be edited to the new server/account variables
