How to move a production site to a staging server
Installation and Configuration
Thanks brian...here are the actions my server took
"Hello,
I found the following sql files in the backup:
-rw-r--r-- root/root 6013356 2018-02-13 00:11 mysql/rough_ocart33.sql
-rw-r--r-- root/root 1276720 2018-02-13 00:11 mysql/rough_directory.sql
-rw-r--r-- root/root 16152757 2018-02-13 00:11 mysql/rough_neckcity.sql
I am leaving these backups in place in a newly the newly created mysql/ directory under /home/americandriller/public_html.
I created the following database for the file /home/americandriller/public_html/config.php :
User: american_rough
Database: american_rough_neckcity
Password:
Now, you just need to edit the file with these credentials and the new domain.
I found the following configuration file as well:
/home/americandriller/public_html/directory/defaults.php
I created this database for this sql data:
User: american_curtis
Database: american_rough_directory
Password:
Regarding the last sql files, which seems to be used in the following configuration files, I created the database with the details below (so you will need to update the configuration files):
./store/admin/config.php
./store/shipstation/config.php
./store/config.php
./store_2_11.bak/admin/config.php
./store_2_11.bak/shipstation/config.php
./store_2_11.bak/config.php
./store.bak/admin/config.php
./store.bak/shipstation/config.php
./store.bak/config.php
User: american__ocart3
Database: american_ocart33
Password:
The data is the sql backup files has been imported into each newly created database. Now, all that you should have to do is to edit the configuration files with the new databases' information, and then replace the .htaccess file with a default, and any other instructions as advised by the CMS support team.
Thanks,

Then i changed the config.php and uploaded a new default copy of htaccess...still no go
