(SOLVED) Moving a shop from a subdirectory to root

[bambi]

A call for helping angels,

I am trying to move a shop placed in a subdirectory on one server to the root on a new server with a new domain name. Backed up the database and the shop.

1. copied the data base to the new server
2. copied the backed up shop to the root (public_html)
3. changed permissions
4. changed file settings.inc.php so they match site and data base

Still can’t open the shop. What am I missig?

Any help would be very much appriciated

Does the entire shop not show up? Can you access the back office?

I know when I moved some stuff over to a different server i had to regenerate the .htaccess file.

Did you redefine PS_BASE_URI in settings ? :-)

ThanX kcrawford & Staple for your replies.

The entier shop did not show up. I don't use friendly URL so my .htaccess is just two lines. Redefined PS_BASE_URI in settings...
The problem was that somehow my config.settings was missing some lines. I installed a fresh copy of PS 1.25 and copied the lines that were missing to the "transfered shop" and that solved the problem.



Now I can't find the solved button :-)
