[solved] mirgrating prestashop to a new server


Recommended Posts

Hi there

 

I have need to relocate prestashop from old server to a new server, therefore I have done the following

 

1/. copied all folder from old server to new server

2/. backup mysql db from old and restore to new server (same db name)

 

since the domain name is the same, so I guess these should be all, but after done I visit the new server, the page cannot start and no error message appeared,

 

please advise what I have missed to make the site come to live, Thanks a lot !!!

hello

 

i've noticed that you posted messages in other thread. No problem, it's better in my opinion to create new thread.

So, i asked about what prestashop version you use, because it is very important

Hi vekia

Thanks for the quick response, I found the date I made in other post were long time ago, so I made new post, I didnt know the version but I is new installed for only few days,so I presumed it is the latest version of prestashop. I am the one who manage the server , the installation is by customer. Thank you

Hi deen, You need to contact your Hosting Provider to change/release the previous DNS. Then contact your current hosting provider to make sure that it is able to be correctly moved to the new server.

 

Hi Benjamin

 

I am the one who manage those old and new server, and the domain ip were changed to new server correctly. Thanks so Much

www.imazecorp.de and this is at the old server, now the old server is taking up the job, customer would not allow to see the server is down, FYI I do only have a limited time to do the testing, if not work I have to switch back to old server

To change shop domain name, you need to change configuration variables stored in database. They are _PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_ and _PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL_

 

To do that, you need to access phpMyAdmin on your server, find your database, check the name of configuration table, normally it's ps_configuration, but maybe for your shop, it has different table prefix.

 

Assume that the table prefix of your database is ps_, do following SQL command in phpMyAdmin

 

UPDATE ps_configuration SET value='www.newdomain.com' WHERE name IN ('_PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_', '_PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL_')
