I created a copy of my project for testing. First I duplicated the whole folder and renamed it from "test-foo" to "test-bar".

Then I exported the database and imported it (which was very time consuming because there were many timeouts).

Then I changed the file "app/etc/local.xml" to point to the new database.

However, this is how my site looks now:

enter image description here

It seems like it lost the design or does not point to the correct one?

How can I fix this?

Also If I try to enter the backend, then I get redirected to the original site which I have copied, even though I changed "web/secure/base_url" and "web/unsecure/base_url" to point to the new URL.

I also get The current marker does not contain a unique ("unique") column. (translated from german...) inside Phpmyadmin, on every table of the imported database, and I can't edit anything until I execute e.g. ALTER TABLEcore_config_dataADD UNIQUE (config_id)

  • Did you try removing the cache and session directory under magento_root/var? Also check .htaccess on magento root and permission to the magento directory.

  • @SukumarGorai, Good hints. I cleared the cache but no difference. I think I know the way. The problem is that I accidentially copied the wrong database, I will check and report back.

  • Check CSS/JS merge enabled in admin.

  • I think it was either because I copied the wrong database or because of my fix. Fix: I used Notepad++ to search the whole exported database SQL file for the old Domain URL and replaced it with the new one.

I was able to solve it. I think it was either because I copied the wrong database or because of my fix.

Fix: I used Notepad++ to search the whole exported database SQL file for the old Domain URL and replaced it with the new one, then I imported it.
