In order to configure osCommerce to work properly with another domain, you should modify both
configure.php files located in the installation directory of your website, under

includes/
and

admin/includes/
folders. These files can be modified using cPanel’s File Manager, or via FTP.

1. The settings that should be changed in

includes/configure.php
are:

HTTP_SERVER – you should change this to your new domain name, e.g. http://newdomain.com:

define(‘HTTP_SERVER’, ‘http://newdomain.com’);

HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN – again, this should be changed to reflect your new domain name:

define(‘HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘newdomain.com’);

If you are using SSL you should also modify:

HTTPS_SERVER – for example:

define(‘HTTPS_SERVER’, ‘https://newdomain.com’);

HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN – set this to:

define(‘HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘newdomain.com’);

2. In the second file

admin/includes/configure.php
you should modify:

HTTP_SERVER – you should change this to your new domain name, e.g. http://newdomain.com:

define(‘HTTP_SERVER’, ‘http://newdomain.com’);

HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER – again, this should be changed to your new domain name:

define(‘HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER’, ‘http://newdomain.com’);

If you are using SSL, you should also change
HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER to:

define(‘HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER’, ‘https://newdomain.com’);
