How to migrate Prestashop 1.7 from local to server

[britu10]

Hi,

 

I've installed and configured PS1.7 in my local server. Then, I developed my own template from a classic's copy. Next step has been to migrate to my hosting server, but I'm having some problems. I've uploaded all the files to the server, exported the database via PHPmyAdmin, I've changed the db access in /app/config/parameters.php and /app/config/parameters.yml and I changed the ps_shop_url table to my new address. After all, I'm getting an error 500.

 

Am I missing something? 

 

Thank you very much in advance

Referring to error 500 ¿You have enabled the debug (config/defines.inc.php) https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/224525-how-to-turn-on-error-reporting-for-debug-information-blank-page-500-internal-server-error/ ?

To help you more we need to know what error occurred exactly. For that you need to enable the DEBUG mode just like Sergio wrote.

 

With DEBUG mode enable, you will not see ERROR 500, but a list of specific errors.

I enable the debug mode with this, but I don't find any difference:

define('_PS_MODE_DEV_', true); 

 

The message I get is this one:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator at [no address given] to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Check your servers php error log for more information.

In my case of the same issue, php memory limits were causing this error in my back office, and this was resolved by increasing the limits in php.ini.  For the front office, it was the .htaccess causing the issue.  Once I resolved the back office issue, I went to Shop Parameters -> Traffic & SEO -> SET SHOP URL, and clicked on Save.  Even though I updated the record in the DB directly, Prestashop still needs to regenerate the .htaccess file.  This is part of the routine when saving from the back office.
