Cant' Access Storefront Or Backend On Local Development Environment

Store Builder Questions
1

Hello there!

As i describe in the title, i tried to set up a live site locally in order to check what changes will be lost in possible update.

So the procedure i followed is the following:

  • Zipped the public html folder from my cpanel
  • Exported the site's mysql database
  • Extracted the public html folder in my root directory under the site's folder name
  • I changed to config.local.php to match the local's development environment settings($config['db_host'], $config['db_name'], $config['db_user'], $config['db_password'], $config['http_host'], $config['http_path'])
  • I also changed the storefront and secure_storefront columns under cscart_companies table in the local database.
  • I changed the permissions of the file to be 777

But after all the above changes i am getting the following response

"server IP address could not be found"

Do you have any suggestions on how to tackle this problem??

Any idea will be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

any idea will be appreciated

I overcame this problem by contacting the server guy of my company. It turned out to be a setting on the localhost server.
