  • If you do not have SSL installed on your development server, log into your existing CS-Cart admin and go to Settings > General.
  • Uncheck the SSL settings shown in the image and then click Save.
    Note: You need to uncheck these because the new server does not have SSL installed and the site will not work.

  • Go to PHPMyAdmin on the original site and export the database.
  • Once you export the database, go back to CS-Cart admin on orignal site and re-check the SSL settings in step 12 and then click Save.
  • Go to PHPMyAdmin on the new site and import the database.
  • In the new site web root, go to /var/cache and delete all the folders and files.
  • Now you should be able to view the front end of the site and log into the CS-Cart admin at http://mynewsite.com/somesecretfile2957.php where somesecretfile2957.php is the name of the admin index.php file.
