Hey,
im awaiting my backup to arrive from another office and wondered if its possible to upload a test store ASWELL AS my working store onto the same server, without messing up CGI scripts??

im thinking, if i add a new directory from root to make the following:


--->Root
+---- testing
+---- acatalog
+---- cgi-bin
+---- index.html
+---- actinic.css

so that the scripts and all the files for the test site are kept away from the existing site, would this work?

I would use new numbers on the .pl scripts to ID them as the new testing site, but could i place them in the newly created testing > cgi-bin folder or would they have to be placed within the existing cgi-bin folder (which im a little scarred of doing).

cheers

You could always install Apache Server etc on a localPC - I find this great for testing and the upload time is almost instant.

Again all the info for the three software components is in the AUG.
