Copying files to the production server

If you add, change, or delete image or HTML files (as opposed to data in the database) on the staging server, you must manually copy these files to the production server.

To copy files to the production server:

  1. Copy the files to the production server in the correct directory:
    1. Create a zipped file that contains all static HTML files, associated image files, and other embedded files. This file should contain new, updated, and unchanged files.
    2. Transfer the zipped files to the production server.
    3. Unzip each zipped file into the corresponding directory in the production server directory structure. If you have moved the HTML files, edit the WebSphere Commerce configuration to point to the files in the new directory.
  2. Delete unused directories on the production server.
