Hello,
I have a production version which runs normally on prestashop v1.7.
I would like to copy that version and make it work on my local computer using wamp server.
I tried a lot of things, searching for a lot of posts and I still don't manage to get it work
Here is what I did :
Common to my 2 techniques tried (see below) :
I installed wamp server
I created a database for mywebsite and filled it with my production database
I changed the domain in ps_configuration and ps_shop_url to localhost and also changed the directory in ps_shop_url
I updated the app/config/parameters.php file to set my db name, user and password
I emptied the cache from app/cache
1st technique tried
I copied all my files from my hosting server to my wamp/www folder
I deleted the .htaccess file at the root my folder
When I try to access to http://localhost/mysite/adminpro (adminpro is my admin folder name) I got a ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED...
Same result for http://localhost/mysite.
2nd technique tried
I explain below that I managed to get a fresh prestashop work on local.
I erased all my folder in mysite directory except the adminpro folder
I copied all folders from my fresh prestashop to mysite folder except the admin folder
I updated the parameter.php file for the db connection
When I try to access to http://localhost/mysite/adminpro I get a blank page and when I try to access to http://localhost/mysite I get an error 500.
Please notice that I also tried a normal installation of a fresh prestashop and it works fine so my wamp seems ok with prestashop.
I don't know what I missed and I am getting desperate about it
Thanks a lot for your help !
