After moving our prestashop to a new host (files and mysql) and setting everything up the files are not being executing but just being downloaded as "download" with the browser. So steps has been done when migrating
- Exported mysql as SQL file and Imported into newly created mysql within new hosting
- Moved all content from public_html folder as zip file to new hosting and extracted all there under new domain.
- updated the parameters.php within Prestashop with new database name user and password
- changed base URL in mysql
- setup same php version as old host
I tried changing php from 5.6 to 7.0 and 7.1 with no luck, checked permissions and all ok.
