From local to remote -- config.php questions
Hey guys,
I’m in the process of moving my site from my local host to remote. I’ve set up the remote mySQL database, imported the .sql file and everything went smoothly. I’ve uploaded all my textpattern files to the server, and attempted to adjust my config.php file.
Here’s how it currently looks, notation identifies problematic variables:
<?php
$txpcfg[‘db’] = ‘textpattern’;
$txpcfg[‘user’] = ‘********’;
$txpcfg[‘pass’] = ‘********’;
$txpcfg[‘host’] = ’76.74.228.4’; <———————-is entering the ISP sufficient as host? We haven’t transferred the domain to our host yet.
$txpcfg[‘table_prefix’] = ‘’;
$txpcfg[‘txpath’] = ‘home/cq8270/public_html/textpattern/index.php’; <———————-how do I determine the correct path?
$txpcfg[‘dbcharset’] = ‘utf8’;
?>
Am I missing anything else?
Essentially, I don’t know how to determine the proper path, nor am I sure what’s required as ‘host.’ And yes, I’ve read through http://wion.com/journal/moving-a-live-textpattern-site-to-a-local-server. If anyone has links to articles describing migrating from local to remote, please share. I’ve found tons on remote to local, but very little for the reverse.
Foolish questions, but I’m pretty green.
Thanks.

Re: From local to remote -- config.php questions
host -> localhost (in most cases)
txpath -> can be removed (not needed in txp 4.0.6)
