When you need to install or change the hosting server for a website, the step of editing Magento Database Configuration File is inevitable. Here’s how you can easily get the job done via these Magento tutorials.
From the root of your Magento directory, follow this path: <Magento Install Dir>/app/etc/
, and edit env.php
In this file, you’ll find all the information related to your database configuration in the 'db'
node.
From here, you can edit various values related to your Magento database configuration file such as:
host
: your host addressdbname
: the name of Magento website databaseusername
&password
: account information that has access todbname
After you’re done configuring, remember to save the file and clear your cache by going into your Magento backend and choose System > Tools > Cache Management.> Flush Magento Cache.
Hope that helps!
