I agree, but what is better, having a shop open for business with and EOL PHP version, or a shop that is currently not operational and loosing thousand $$$ per week? As I said, this will give me time to setup a brand new ThirtyBees shop with new refresh theme and modules while still being able to operate my shop...

I think for now, I will have my site moved to the new host where PHP 7.2 is supported. This way, I will be back online to take orders. I will deal with the other stuff later... Cheers

I am using a Paid Canada Post and a Paid FedEx modules for my shipping, I think from Prestochangeo...

Ok, but do you know if I can use copy_shopdata from a Prestashop 1.6.1.24 to a thirtybees directly if they are on the same Host?

Ok, but can copyshop_data be use if the new install of Prestashop (1.6.1.24) is on a different host? My current shop is with JustHost (they are no longer offering PHP 7.2 and switch my site automatically to PHP 7.3 causing my payment modules to no longer work properly) and I am moving to a new host "Hostpapa" where I can choose PHP version down to 5.4 I think.

Isn't thirtybees able to import data exported by Prestashop? My current Prestashop as to many installed/unused module, some coding were modified, so the reason why I wish to do a fresh install. So I think I will do as mentioned above instead... Cheers

No, no change when I deleted the file, it was recreated automatically and my problem is still there. I think the best thing, to avoid all bugs, is to install a new install of ThirtyBees on my new Host. I have obtained a new URL with a .ca, my existing site is a .com. So I will have my current Hosting company restore my site to september 3rd, then move it to the new Host company and select it to work with PHP 7.2. This should bring back my shop to a working condition while I am working to bring the new thirtybees website under .ca with new theme, modules and all the rest. I will install thirtybees in a subdirectory so to not interfere with the existing site file transfer (.com) Once thirtybees is all set to my licking, I can import the customers, sales, catalog... data from prestashop to it to test everything, then make the proper changes to move it to the .com url. Do you think I should proceed like this?

What to you really mean by "clearing the class_index.php file in cache folder"? I backed up this file, then deleted all the code inside the file. The result was a blank Backoffice and front office. Restored the file from the backup I just created and back online. Edit: Ok, I deleted the file and it recreated itself after doing a refresh...

One more thing, I currently have all those files in the Module Folder: .htaccess canadapost.php carrier.jpg CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md composer.json config.xml CONTRIBUTING.md CONTRIBUTORS.md de.php error500.html error500.phtml error500_debug.phtml es.php footer.php fr.php header.php images.inc.php index.php init.php it.php LICENSES logo.gif logo.png README.md sql-install.php sql-uninstall.php SUPPORTERS.md xml-package.tpl xml.tpl Is this normal, or should it be only the .htaccess and index.php files as in what's included in a new Prestashop install?

Thanks a lot for your help the.rampage.rado, much appreciated. ... restoring Modules folder now...

...Also, I just created a business account with hostpapa.ca Hosting company here in Canada, at least, with them, you can choose what PHP version to use on your site down to 5.4, I think. With my current hosting "JustHost" they simply decided to switch my website from PHP 7.1 to PHP 7.3 without notification and no way to go back to PHP 7.1, because it is no longer offered on their packages... I think now, my only choice, is to have them restore my site to September 3rd, test if all is there, than move my site to HostPapa.ca and choose PHP 7.2 version for my site. At least, if all good, my site should work again, knowing that I will loose almost a month of transactions. I have Export all that I can using the Export feature of PS so I can import later on my new Host if needed. Do you think this is what I should do? If everything works after all this, I will SUE those #$@?#$@W% for my lost.

Ok, here's what I did, I downloaded a new Prestashop 1.6.1.24 zip file and unzip to look at what modules are included in the folder. I backed up the Modules folder with FTP. Then, at first, I deleted one by one the non-native modules from the server and check to see if I was still getting a blank page making sure to do "Ctrl F5" every time to not load the page from cache. After doing this for a couple hours and still getting blank page on Modules tab, I compared the modules included in the Prestashop 1.6.1.24 zip file then deleted all modules from my server not included in Prestashop 1.6.1.24 zip file in one go. Result is... Still blank white page when accessing the Module tab. So, it seems that the problems isn't cause by a module not being compatible with PHP 7.3, but is caused by something else... What now!!!

Thanks, doing FTP backup of modules folder now and will try what you said... Going to all tab in Prestashop backoffice, I also get white page for: Price Rules/marketing Blank Module Module/Payment Probably Payment modules are the bad ones... fingers crossed... Cheers

Thanks for your reply... The fact that my hosting company never bothered to notify me with a date that they were going to upgrade my site automatically from PHP 7.2 to PHP 7.3 is enough for me to drop them and possibly file for lawsuit. PHP 7.3 broke my payments modules causing me to lose $1000s in sale already. (I was receiving payments, but no sales were generated, causing customer to try again and again, so I had to reimburse a lot of payment in double/triple and creating orders from their carts manually. So I had to put my site in Catalog mode disabling all the shopping features and put a notice on the top regarding this...) Now I have to start from scratch... Is it possible for me to install a new installation of thirtybees on another host with the same website address but having it offline so that my customer only see the current website while I setup the new site on the new host? My current website has lot of Paid Module that may not work with TB, so I think a new install is best. My other option is to have my host restore my site to September 3rd, so I can try to migrate to TB again, but I will loose all transaction for this month. Any recommendation? What about a good Canadian Host company suggestion... Thanks

Thank you for your reply, the problems I have now is that I did a restore of the website and Database and I can no longer have access to the module tabs, it shows a blank page instead and no errors or warnings showing with debug on, So I can no longer do a migration to TB. The worse problem is that I did not do a FTP backup, but used a daily backup created from my host. When I downloaded the .tar Host backup created just prior doing the migration, it showed completed with success, but when I unzip the .tar file, it is corrupt and I can not extract all folders from the .tar file, lots of folder are missing, including the Modules folder. I think what cause the .tar file to be corrupted is that the Host server crashed during the process, I couldn't access the Host (JustHost) cPanel for a while and a messages showing that their server were down was appearing when trying to connect to it. The restore was done using my Host backup, my backoffice and website look like it was before, it's just that I no longer have access to the modules via my backoffice. All prestashop files seems to be on the server however (including Modules folder). Is it possible that when I used the Host backup files to do the restore, this .tar file was corrupt and some of the folders including Modules did not get restored and is now causing the issues I have because for example the Modules folders is containing files from the TB migration? Also, worse case, can I install TB like a new installation then link it to the existing database? Much help would be appreciated Dan

Hi, I just migrated from PS 1.6 using the migration tool and now I have a blank screen for both backoffice and website. This is for a online webstore that's been online for many years. I turned PS_MODE_DEV to true and I get this: Warning: "continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"? in /home4/amaxmed1/public_html/classes/Tools.php on line 5303 Fatal error: Access level to Link::getLangLink() must be public (as in class LinkCore) in /home4/amaxmed1/public_html/override/classes/Link.php on line 192 Host currently setup with PHP 7.3 Please help, I don't want to do a restore yet, if I can get it to work with your help. Dan EDIT: After doing the migration with the latest thirty bees migration module, I did a refresh... The Migration module updates to thirty bees 1.0.8, could it be that this version is not PHP 7.3 ready? I am currently doing a Restore, and will try again, this time following the instructions specified below: - Uninstall the migration module, psonesixmigrator. - Install thirty bees’ update module, tbupdater. - Update all the modules in need of an update, one by one. Boring, but necessary. - Install Core Updater (coreupdater), thirty bees’ next generation updater. - Use Core Updater to update thirty bees further. Migration module updates to thirty bees 1.0.8 only, then Core Updater takes over. ... Fingers crossed. EDIT #2 I performed a Restore from my server restore option and also restored the database created just before doing the migration. Now, I am back to my previous Prestashop Backoffice 1.6.1.xx, everything works EXCEPT the modules tab, whenever I try to access the modules section on my backoffice, I get a "BLANK" page. Turn on Dev mode and no error is shown??? Did I just BREAK my 8 years old online shop permanently??? The main reason I wanted to migrate to TB is for the PHP 7.3-7.4 support because my Host is no longer offering older version of PHP and some of my modules stop to work properly after PHP version went up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. God, I am starting to really regret this... Dan
