how to install cs cart in a sub domain

Hi,

i would like to install cs cart in a subdomain.

i’m doing everything properly,but when it cames the part i should insert:



Server host name http:// www.shop.mydomain.com

Server host directory ( empty)

Secure server host name https://www.shop.mydomain.com

Secure server host directory (empty)

This setup is not working…

it says it cannot connect with DB server…

Any advice?

should look like the example below:


[quote name=‘snorocket’]should look like the example below:


I just installed cs-cart into a sub domain like this





store.mydomain.com



The installation created the config.local.php like this



// Host and directory where software is installed on no-secure server

$config[‘http_host’] = ‘store.mydomain.com’;

$config[‘http_path’] = ‘’;



// Host and directory where software is installed on secure server

$config[‘https_host’] = ‘store.mydomain.com’;

$config[‘https_path’] = ‘’;





What Sno posted above would be if you had your store like this



[url]http://www.mydomain.com/store[/url]



So, if you have your cart files under a sub domain use the first example. If you have your cart files under a sub directory then use Sno’s example.







Hope that helps.

it does help.Thanks!

Do you know if it’s possible to have cannonical url’s for the sub domain?if yes how should i do the 301?

Also,there’s something i don’t understand regarding the sub domain…even if i have a sub domain example: store.mydomain.com , i still can acess the folder mydomain.com/store.

Is that correct?or should i do some redirect from /store to store.mydomain ?
