The idea is this: I have 2 dedicated servers (an old one and new one), I have to transfer a magento website from old server to new server via Plesk. Transferring is fine and the website works on a new server with a temporary domain (tempdomain.com) for testing purposes, however I do have this issue:
When I try to log on to admin area of a clone:
tempdomain.com/admin
I get redirected to
realdomain/admin
How do I log on to the cloned version (tempdomain.com)? I assume I have to edit some file, but I can’t find which, since there are thousands, string searching through them is futile.
UPDATE: the new website has it’s own (cloned) database
The table you are looking for is
core_config_data. I am assuming the new tempdomain.com has its own database.This link tells you what to do.
