[solved] Moving 1.4 customers' passwords to 1.5 version! (old database to new database)

[patrick81]

I have been running 1.4 for over a year and I need to move to 1.5. It looks like it's best to redo everything again in 1.5 because there are SO many changes.

 

Question: How can i move/copy customers passwords to 1.5 database without changing their passwords? I only have 66 customers so I don't mind creating each account for them but I need to know how to keep their same encrypted password? I went in my old database "ps_customer" and copied their encrypted passwords and secure keys and pasted them in the new database. It didn't work. Any better ideas to get this to work?

 

Thanks, Patrick

did you check the:

 

code below is only an example!

define('_COOKIE_KEY_', '7kWD2o9kwM3qYpPxuOdGfH1TZQmNthTYP9Aq');
define('_COOKIE_IV_', 'qYw231rI');
define('_RIJNDAEL_KEY_', 'PJ3ccB0R3tchTZHK5P5ky');
define('_RIJNDAEL_IV_', 'AFzepx+p1AuQ==');

 

 

it must be the same in two shops, by this i mean that you must copy correct values into new shop settings.inc.php file

Hey! Thanks for getting back to me! I did what you asked. I copied those four over to new setting.inc.php. No luck. I even cleared cache and still can't login. It should work.. hmm i don't get it. Anything else I should check?

[vekia]

Hi guys,

 

It doesn't work for me on v. 1.5.3.1. When I try to log in on the checkout page, it just keeps loading forever. Another thing is that the frontpage suddenly dissapears and header is the only thing which remains. Do you have any idea?

I will try this too!
