Unable to find your Store configuration file

Troubleshooting: Unable to Find Your Store Configuration File During Data Migration

Encountering the "Unable to find your Store configuration file" error during your data migration with Cart2Cart? This usually indicates an issue with the connection between our migration tool and your source store. Here's a breakdown of potential causes and how to resolve them:

Possible Reasons Why Cart2Cart Can't Locate Your Store Configuration File

• Incorrect Bridge Location: The Migration Bridge, a crucial component for establishing the connection, might be placed in the wrong directory. Ensure it's located in the root directory of your store's installation.
• Missing or Misplaced Configuration File: The configuration file itself could be missing, incorrectly named, or located in the wrong directory. Double-check its presence and location. If you've renamed it, revert to the original name.
• Unsupported Cart: While Cart2Cart supports a wide range of platforms, your specific cart might not be supported. Verify that your shopping cart platform is listed on our supported carts list. If you cannot find the platform, contact our team to check if it can be added.
• File Permissions Issue: The configuration file might not have the correct read permissions. Ensure the file is readable by the web server. You may need to adjust file permissions or contact your system administrator for assistance.
• Firewall Restrictions: Your server's firewall might be blocking access to the configuration file. Check your firewall settings and ensure that Cart2Cart's IP addresses are whitelisted.
• Incorrect Store URL: The URL provided during the connection setup might be incorrect. Verify that the URL accurately points to your store's root directory.
• SSL Certificate Issues: Problems with your SSL certificate (e.g., self-signed certificate, expired certificate) can sometimes prevent the bridge from connecting properly. Ensure your SSL certificate is valid and properly installed.
