Hey guys,

I just bought a new site yesterday from Total Choice for my web store. I have built an oscommerce site at another Total Choice domain and I want to move it over to the new site. The old site was www.xmfleet.com/xm and the new site is www.satdelivered.com.

This isn't your average OSCommerce site. It's supercharegd with CRE Loaded and I bought a flash template for it as well (I know I'm cheating). So I don't want to simply create a fresh install on the new server, I want to transfer all of this work over to it. I don't have any products in it yet, but getting the CRE loaded and the template installed was a day of work all by itself. I'm not concerned with any customer data loss, becuase nothing has been added yet.

Should I create a database with the same user and pass, and just copy all of the files over to the new server, or is it more complex? Should I create the OSCommerce stock install first, and then copy the files over?

Another question - I could never get OSCommerce to work with the Total Choice shared SSL certificate. Any help would be great, I'll be in the office all day!

Open a ticket with the help desk and ask them if they can move it for you.
