Want to Move Store to New Domain

Post Want to Move Store to New Domain 
Howdy gods of Agora ;-)

I have got my store all happily customized and running on a temp domain, aka www.teststore.com. Now I want to move it over to www.realstore.com.

I tried downloading all files (binary mode ok?) to my PC, grepped for "teststore.com" and changed them all to "realstore.com", uploaded to real store web server and am getting errors like crazy.

Is there an easy way to do this rather than start with a vanilla store at realstore.com and manuall merge all my configs, templates, and mods into the package?

Thanks in advance,
Mike

Mike,
ALL files except graphics need to be downloaded/uploaded in ASCII.
ONLY the graphics files should be downloaded/uploaded in binary.

HTH!~

hell-o
don't assume anything or trouble shooting will be insane.
web install the tgz file of the same version you used before. set up the urls in the manager and test to be sure the store install wasn't corrupted.
then upload the admin_files folder and replace all. ftp in acii.
then go back to the manager and reset the urls and test again. all the way through checkout. check emails and logs.
upload and replace all the sub folders and files in the html directory at once, ftp in ascii except the images folder. do that seperately in binary. test the store all the way through checkout. then do the data_files directory. ftp all in ascii. test checkout emails and log again.
the rest should be just a few files here and there.
use the entire folders whenever possible. test after each upload. if you encounter probs then you know it was something from the previous upload.
if you overwrite the existing files then permissions will be assumed so you eliminate a lot of messin with that.

regards,
dan
