Moving site from windows to linux

Hello I moved my site on linux server.
Really I have 2 sites duplicates and to see if the new works I have modified hosts on my pc.

I modified also these 2 files:
/admin/includes/configure.php
and
/includes/configure.php
changing path from C:/
to /
for linux

but I see store page (with default template, not with right template)
and when I go on admin page I have 500 internal server error.

Please help me. :(

I would run the zc_installer it will write your configure files for you.

Re: Moving site from windows to linux

Run zc_install to have it build the files. That's why this tutorial tells you to do that: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=100

There's no option to "not overwrite" files. You can preserve your copies if you like, but the whole reason is that you DO want to overwrite the files with whatever zc_install creates.
