kishoreunni Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I think u should have done an upgrade to the prestashop rather than cleaning and uploading the files. keep that old version in ur remote site than do the 1-click-upgrade to change the prestashop version to the latest version. If ur hoisting only support application size of only upto 1gb then take the backup of your old version from remote site and keep it in your computer. I hope it may help u.

NemoPS Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 What did you do exactly? Upgraded? Just downloaded, re-uploaded? Is the database still hooked up? What is it doing now, exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaurav jalan Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 i know i should have upgraded now what i did ? ok here i go 1) i took manual backup of all files using FTP (1.1 GB Data) (it was prestashop 1.5) 2) Cleaned my FTP Server 3) Installed Clean Prestashop 1.64) Upoaded the data again . Thats what i did. I know its stupid. Now i again deleted the data on FTPand now uploading the (manual backup of server) as it was. I hope i get my old Prestashop 1.5 running. Even thats fine for me i will think about 1.6 later. do you think it will work this way ? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetx Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 No it will not backup the db. what you could do is to zip up your entire backed website (the one you downloaded), upload that to the root of your shop (public_html or whatever), unzip it. So it should work. Just check the permissions remain intact after it is unzipped (providing your server is configued correctly it will be, but you never know..).

NemoPS Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Well a 1.6 db will not work with 1.5 files, so yeah as jetx said, you need to simply re-upload your files and hook them back to the database. If you don't have it anymore, just install a clean 1.5 of the same version and hook it to that. Thing might be a bit broken still, but less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
