General Installation & Upgrade

Been banging my head and cant see what Ive done wrong here.

copied all files from root to /v4

changed config.php http://prntscr.com/fm3w76

Changed .htaccess rewritebase to http://prntscr.com/fm3x8z

added store in admin http://prntscr.com/fm3xtd

Database is pointing to right locations of new database

Deleted cache directory

but www.hivis.co.uk/v4 and admin still redirects to root ?

Any help please.

If this a multi store setup. then you do not need to setup a sub folder, you just go into manage stores, add the new store. Call it lets say test and fill in the url as www.yoursite.com/test

the new site will be availabel at www.yoursite.com/test

Or is it a complete new installation in a sub folder.?

I just noticed that you have havis.co.uk in the admin url, try http://www.havis.co.ukor just www.havis.co.uk as the domain without the www. may be redirected to www.havis.co.uk at the domain reg.

Hello! You should check .htaccess file in your root folder.

This is set up in a sub folder so I can update to the latest version, and then transfer to root.

Can you remove the last "/" symbol after "/v4/" in your htaccess file? And can i see your full .htaccess file?

I don't see a problem in your .htaccess file. You should contact to your hosting support.
