bestbuytrading Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I tried the following steps for cloning my LIVE database to create a test environment. 1) URL for accessing my live site is www.bestbuytrading.com/shopping 2) Created a subdomain named 'bbttest' for my test shop bbttest.bestbuytrading.com 3) Copy the files under /shopping folder to /public_html/bbttest 4) Created a database named bbttest & a new db user 5) Login into LIVE database and exported all tables in SQL mode. 6) Login into test datbase bbttest and imported the LIVE data 7) I have modfied the table ps_configuration for the following fields to have values as bbttest.bestbuytrading.com PS_SHOP_DOMAIN PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL 8) Open the settings.inc.php file under the public_html/bbttest/config folder of our new test site and edit the file to change the fields DB_USER and DB_PASSWD to match the credentials we set earlier. After this If I type bbttest.bestbuytrading.com, it is going to the LIVE shop. Not able to login to the back office if type http://bbttest.bestbuytrading.com/bbtliveadmin since pages are not displayed properly. Not able to update .htaccess file through backoffice. Did I have to do any more configurations? Can you please let me know any further setting to be done regarding this/how to fix this problem?
