[SOLVED] Passwords migration from PS 1.6 to 8.2

[Jean Ma]

Hi there !

I'm migrating a shop from PS 1.6.1.7 to a new PS 8.2 installation.

Is there a way to migrate the user passwords to the new PS as the hashing method isn't the same and the passwords cannot be reused ?

Or at least how to tell PS 8.2 to accept the old hashing ?

I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one experiencing this issue.

Thank you in advance for any help !

Copy the cookie  keys from settings.inc.php to parameters.php

Finally, it was an easy job :

• Replaced the cookie key in /app/config/parameters.php whith the old one found in PS 1.6 installation
• Cleared the cache
• And of course, copied the hashes in column passwd from old table PS_customer into the new one

It also works for the PS_employee table.

Once a customer has logged in, the hash is automatically converted to the new hashing.
