[SOLVED] Setting up the shop without loading it on a server?


Recommended Posts

At first I want to say hi to everyone as this is my first post ;-)

 

Now to the topic. I'm a shop owner but I'm not satisfied with how it looks like and neither how it works. I have decided to give Prestashop a try but before I delete my current shop from the hosting server and load Presta' I would like to have everything set up hence my following question. Is it possible to create a "fake" server on my laptop just to load Prestashop on it to see how it works and set up all the visuals (this is going to be a longer process as I'm going to consult it with some other people before I got a final look) before I run it under my domain?

Thank you Razaro, that is the official documentation. Also, there is a cool tutorial for xampp written here

 

I have just instaled prestashop following this tutorial. Everything seems to be fine but somehow I cant access the Back Office using the button from the end of instalation process. So I got 2 new questiosn for now:

 

1) How do I access the Back Office?

 

2) How do I move my shop to a hosted server after I set up everything?

 

Thanks for help

Copy all files into remote server, change entries in config file and change entries in database: ps_shop_url table

thats all - it will work :-)

this is the error code:

 

 

Object not found!

 

The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the
.

Error 404

localhost

Apache/2.4.3 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.1c PHP/5.4.7

 

BTW now I closed the instalation window so aint got acces to the mentioned button and doing it manually. What is the backoffice adress? localhost/prestashop/backoffice?

 

 

UPDATE:

 

it is localhost/prestashop/admin123

 

problem solved ;-)
