Moving site from a test directory...

[Note: remember to include site URL, ZC version, list of plugins, PHP version, etc ... read the Posting Tips shown above for information to include in your post here. And, remove this comment before actually posting!]

Hello,
I had my current site in my main directory and my new site in a test directory.
I successfuly moved the main site into a second test sub directory as I would like to refer back to it now and then. It still displays correctly etc.
I have then moved what is to be my new site from the test sub directory to the main directory, however this one will not display and neither will my admin login. I have a blank white screen with no errors.

I checked the install info on the zencart site and I have done what it says so I am not sure what I have done wrong.
Especially since the other site I moved to a sub directory is working.

Here is a link in case you need it... craftjam.co.uk and I am on 1.5.5f

Thank you
Amy

Re: Moving site from a test directory...

Zen Cart and the forum or your friends, but they sometimes make information hard to find in a search. If you were to Google "move site to another folder Zen Cart", your result would probably show https://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?160-i-have-installed-zen-cart-to-a-directory-how-do-i-rename-or-move-that-directory.

Re: Moving site from a test directory...

Hi,
That is what I followed, which worked for one site but not my other?

I have triple checked my configs etc but can't see where I went wrong/

Thanks
Amy

Re: Moving site from a test directory...

When rechecking/changing the includes/configure.php (store side) are/were you sure that the changes took affect (ie. That the permissions of the file were modified from 0444 to 0644 to permit saving the change(s)?)

Also did you clear your browser cache/sessions?

Re: Moving site from a test directory...

Maybe post a copy of your config files? maybe look in the logs folders for mydebug logs which normally generate for bank page issues?

Re: Moving site from a test directory...

Hi,
Thought i best get back to you...
I tried all of that, well re did it to make sure and still nothing.
I had to revert my website back to my old one as it is too close to Christmas to have the down time, so I will move it accross again after Christmas, and if i have the same error again I will come back on and post my config files.
Hopefully it was just a silly mistake i made and that in re doing it again ,it fixes it.

Thank you for your help,
Amy
