moving products to a new zen cart

[kuroi]

Got them both:

In the admin, this line has extras (in red) that need deleting

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/strato/www/ki/www.........co.uk/adults4fun/admin');

In the catalog, this line has a missing single quote from just inside the bracket at the end

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/strato/www/ki/www.........co.uk/htdocs/);

sorry i know our thinking and

[kuroi]

Seems to me that there's some confusion here about the file system path on your server.

In your catalog configure you have defined it as

/home/strato/www/ki/www.........co.uk/htdocs/

but in your admin congigure you have defined it as

/home/strato/www/ki/www.........co.uk/adults4fun/

, and it seems from the warning messages as though your server is expecting

/mnt/web5/52/98/51651098/htdocs/adults4fun/

Is it possible that you are using variants of the file system from your hosting account on your new one?

Hi I have been working through the error messages and i am stuck with this one, can you advise what this points to as i believe i am missing the application_top.php file within the includes file which is there and i am a little cofused

Hi Kuroi

Give up and you won't learn anything. I recommend replacing the FS paths that you have, at least one of which must be wrong, with what your server is expecting.

The problems that you are having are almost certainly not because you don't have the files you need but because your sending your Zen Cart to a location that it can't find to get them.

But don't give up, because I think you're really rather close to getting it to work.

sorry i am still quite new to all this. the paths i have been working through has now led me to install and upgrade. this is as i have had mising files or moved files. can you advise what the fs path is as this is still jargon to me. sorry i think i need to be spoken to as php for dummies

[kuroi]

I'm suggesting changing this in your admin/includes/configure.php file

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/home/strato/www/ki/www.kinkydreams.co.uk/adults4fun/admin/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/strato/www/ki/www.kinkydreams.co.uk/adults4fun/');

to read this instead

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/mnt/web5/52/98/51651098/htdocs/adults4fun/admin/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/mnt/web5/52/98/51651098/htdocs/adults4fun/');

and making a similar change in your includes/configure.php file (just one line to change there).

Hi thanks for the help, the shopping cart is installed but none of the catagories or products transfered - any ideas with this

[kuroi]

Then you backup your existing database, which will include your product information and restore it to the new database.

Hi thanks for the help, the shopping cart is installed but none of the catagories or products transfered - any ideas with this

What method did you use to move your old database into the new location?
