Fresh Installation / initial set up snags!
« on: February 14, 2014, 01:21:56 PM »

I used the myslq wizzard  on my hosting company and created the new database name as jc6322_newdb   the jc6322_was already there. When i put it into the install info it asks for, i get an error that says only use alpha numeric characters...

I dunno if i can get back into the wizzard and correct this..or will it make a second database..IF that would work at all..

I called my hosting co and they did not recommend going back into the wizzard. She tried to get me into file manager, but there was nothing there for me to go into.

Also.. next setting is "db setting" it has ab_ there, what goes in there?
Site settings/admin folder is already there: admin123  do i change that?
Thank you again for helping this obvious newbie!

Fresh Installation / Re: have working site, how to install?

Thank you for the replies. :)
Sorry i could not make myself more clear. I saved a copy of that post. Thank you.

We have a working website and shopping cart now. It has many problems after 13 year. So I found this e commerce solution. We need to keep the site up and running while we build the AbanteCart cart. Our hosting company put a new folder onto our ftp server called "new" so that we could upload and build the new AbanteCart cart there.

I guess to make the question easier...once we are finished building the cart in this "new" folder, how would i get it to become the main site?

She talked about keeping the pathways the same. (That is where she lost me) said 95 % of the software out there would let you do this w out any problem..

I am also concerned about keeping the URL's the same as the ones we have now..is that possible?

Clear as mud?

Fresh Installation / have working site, how to install?

Greetings,
We already have a working site. our hosting company put in a new folder for us in the ftp simply called "new". She then told me to make the new site and cart using all same same url's except use
.new. in front of the name of the site. she said when we were ready to make the site live, we should be all set, just pull the "new" and it would not mess up the "pathways". That we would have a little bit to do, but we would be all set.

She also said that 95% of software would allow you to do this...but before i go and build an entire site...i thought i should check!

Thank you very much,
Sue
