I have done one work which is stored in the webserver. I downloaded all the files and the database and uploaded onto the local server.When I am typing the local server url ,its going to the web server url.Also when i am logging onto the admin panel in magento in local server, its going to the admin panel in the webserver.How can it be corrected ? Actually I am new to Magento.
You should have to update base url in your database. Open your phpmyadmin, go to core_config_data and update your new url. Use below mysql query,
UPDATE core_config_data SET value="http://localhost/your-magento-location" WHERE path='web/unsecure/host';
Don't forget to clear cache.

I have a problem,
I changed the url of my prestashop because I have a new url.
But now i have the Problem that i tipped in the wrong path, and if i want to log in as admin then the shop directs me everytime to the wrong path so I can't change anything...
Does anybody know in which folder of the FTP Server I can change it in the data?
I tired to delete the htaccess data but this didn't help me.
Or is it another option to go back to where I started, before i changed the Url?
I think that your problem occurred not from a .htaccess but from your database. Prestashop keeps domain URL in the DB and if you changed it you better to check table configuration fields PS_SHOP_DOMAIN, PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL and table shop_url. I think that the problem is over there.
When you want to migrate to another server, you have to
Update the _DB_... constants in config/settings.inc.php file
Since your database does not changed, this step is not necessary.
Update PS_SHOP_DOMAIN and PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL fields in configuration database table
Update the domain, domain_ssl and physical_uri fields in the shop_url database table
Now you can log in to the admin page. When you did it, your first step has to go to Preference -> SEO & URLs, then turn off and on again the Friendly URLs switch to update the .htaccess files.
These steps are works on Prestashop 1.6, but not tested on 1.7.

I am trying to create a test environment for a Magento site. I downloaded all the files and the database and restored to XAMPP. I changed the two base urls in the core_config_data table to http://magento.local/magento/ and modified the Magento config file to connect to the local database. I also added magento.local in the hosts file. I'm using magento.local as I read Magento must have a . in the domain name. The site almost works except on the front end when on http://magento.local/magento/ and try and go to a different page it tries to access http://magento.local/pagename/ and gives a 404 error, i can access through http://magento.local/magento/index.php/pagename. I have also disabled Web Server Rewrites in the backend as I read that is supposed to fix this problem. Any suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks

I am so stumped with this and I need some help from the community. I moved my joomla site over to a new server and now the content has disappeared from the front end, I am not getting an errors.... Can someone offer any suggestions on where to look for the problem? my config is fine and I am pretty sure my database is aswell because all my original articles are there.
I am running Joomla 1.5
The URL: http://www.davidjamesmedia.ca
If you moved to a new server at a different hosting company, Joomla is probably either
not looking in the right place for the database, or
not using the right credentials (host, port, username, password, whatever) for the database.
That might also be true if you moved to a different server at the same hosting company, although it's a little less likely. Look at the configuration.php file.
Assuming you have shell access, make sure you can access the database through its command-line utility. Then make sure Joomla is using the same credentials.
This is a really odd one.
The database credentials are obviously correct otherwise the site wouldn't load at all and would result in a MySQL error. Try re-assigning a new temporary article to the homepage else download the K2 component, import your articles and assign the K2 article to the homepage.
Update:
If you have the demo package for the template you are using the follow these steps:
create a sub domain
install the demo package with sample data
export the #__content database table from the main website
replace the #__content table with the one you exported
Make sure your error reporting is on in your server's php.ini file so that you can see what errors php is giving i.e. error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED
In admin panel, can you see the articles in content menu?
If so, enter in each article and push the Save button.
After you save the article, it should appear again in frontpage (that worked for me).
I have moved magento to a new server, updated all the database requirments, cleared the cache. but still it is picking up the old database name , userid and password. Thus i cannot connect to my store any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Remove
app/etc/local.xml
var/cache/*
var/session/*
Then visit the store URL - you should see the installer (and subsequently complete it).
If you don't see the installer, are you sure you don't have any other applications integrated into your store, eg. Wordpress (which would show "Error establishing database connection" in a big H1)
If your old database is still used, the only possibility is that you did not change the database properties in the file app/etc/local.xml.
change var and cache folder permission to 777
After I enter my username and password and click "Login" it sends me back to the Login page with NO error messages. The URL changes to include a session key and that's it. Everytime I click Login again, the session key is regenerated and I still can't log into the admin interface.
I just encountered this problem on one of my servers (not a localhost installation). Turns out the system account was over quota, so I presume Magento was unable to create the necessary temporary files. (I noticed this when trying to create a directory on the server over ssh.)
So... maybe check to make sure the account under which Magento is running isn't over quota on your server? At the very least, it might not be a Magento problem directly.
Clear the contents of the directory var/cache and try again.
If that doesn't help check the table core_config_data in the database for records with a path value of "web/secure/base_url", "web/unsecure/base_url" and "admin/url/custom". These should match the page you are trying to log into (but without "index.php/admin/" at the end)
Finally check your browser's cookie settings and that the server's PHP is able to set cookies.
I was having the same problem running Magento 1.5.1 on my production server. I would log in to the admin, the url would show the address for the dashboard (with the secure key), but the screen would still be the login screen. There was no error. This happened with FF, Safari, and Chrome.
I fixed it by manually setting two core_config_data values in the database. They are as follows:
web/cookie/cookie_path = /
web/cookie/cookie_domain = "mydomain.com"
clear out var/cache and try to log in. For me, it worked.
Version 1.7.0.2 I have been moving my magento store from on server to another one, and I had the same problem. Use phpamdin to edit your database on new server, search for web/cookie/cookie_domain in 'config path row', the value is probably your old domain name: yourdomain.com, change that to your new domain name OR to your new IP address (new server). If you attend to use your old domain on new server environment you will probably want to set your story ready before you switch your name servers. That was the case for me, after I added my new server IP to web/cookie/cookie_domain instead of domain I was finally able to log into my magento backend.
I had some problems when on a local server. It was on http://server/username/ and so didn't have dots in it. If we changed the settings to be the IP address of the server then it was fine.
There can be several things that cause this behavior. This is my checklist. One of them will eventually fix it.
Click the "forgot password link" and then the "back" link. This will remove any possibly misplaced params in the URL as well as make sure you're on the right server (some installations have separate admin servers)
Clear cookies or use an incognito window
Try another browser
Local installations: Try using 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost (and update the base URL in the core_config_data table)
Clear Magento cache, full_page_cache, and session directories in the magento/var/ directory (and repeat 1 and 2)
Truncate the core_session table
Verify your Magento has correct memory settings
Check Magento system.log and exception.log files and debug
Check PHP's error logs and debug
I've experienced this issue using Opera, while in other browsers it worked fine.
Also, make sure to set correct cookie options in:
System > Configuration > Web > Cookie Settings
Also, make sure that your system time / time zone on the server and php and magento match up.
