Revisited: Moving shop from A to B

[walber2409]

Dear all:

 

I am going through a very frustrating phase of "tried it all" right now when moving my shop (1.5.4/template from 3rd party(templatemonster.com)/Linux SuSE 13.1/LAMPP 1.8). I used to

run it on a webspace with no root access and thought it to be a good idea to change to a root server of my own. In all due brevity, here are the steps taken in the course of this endeavour: 

 

 

ACTION                                                             Status                        (Verification) Method

======================================================================

1) Moved domain to new provider                      okay                        checked zone file; curl; traceroute

 

2) Backup of database (MySQL 5.x)                   okay                       phpMyAdmin  

 

3) Moved everything to new location                   okay                       scp

 

4) changed .htaccess in Document Root             okay                       vi

 

5) changed settings.inc.php (database)              okay           

 

6) import of db backup                                         okay                      phpMaAdmin

 

 

Now when I try to run the shop in any browser, I will get an error indicating that the language variable was not found  (e.g. www.myshop.com/de not found ( wouldn't work with whatever language chosen.

 

I tried to move the shop to another subdirectory producing the same annoying results.

 

Please advise. I will be happy to provide you wuith any information needed.

 

Regards from Germany

I suggest regenerating .htaccess from back office.

 

You can accomplish this by turn on/off or off/on friendly url's  from back office depending on if you have friendly url's turned on or off.

Well, unfortunately when entering <myshop.com>/admin I keep getting back a blank screen - not even an error cose from Apache ....

try turning on prestashop error reporting and reproduce to see if error message is displayed

for development turn on errors as your fp is not loading completely.

 

if you have never run ps on new server then it is highly recommended to do a native install so that ps can check your server run-time for in compatibilities before uploading a developed shop that is working on localhost.

 

also, your post is 'not' similar to original poster, so in the future please open new (your own) topic.
