osCommerce

The e-commerce.

Newbie Question

I've looked around on the forum and couldn't find the answer, so forgive me if this question is either incredibly ignorant or irritating...

 

I've downloaded the osCommerce files to a directory on my server (running Windows AS2K) and when I access the index file I get the code, not the rendered page.

Is there as server setting I'm missing or is it a known code issue? I have phpmyadmin & mysql installed, and I'm running phpBB with no problems, so I kinda figured I'd be all set for PHP.

 

Erm, help?

where in relation to the other packages did you copy osCommerce to? can you run the install program?

 

put this code in the same location, name it phpinfo.php

 

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

 

and see what you get. if you get just code, then the folder you have copied osCommerce to is not accessible by PHP, whichever you are using.

Thanks Mibble,

 

I figured out the problem - I had to log into IIS and and set up the Config for PHP in Home Directory for the site I had unpacked into. I had assumed installing it onto the default directory would cover everything ('cos I'm a muppet).

 

Now I just have to sort out the register_globals issue and home free :)

 

Thanks again for getting back to my post so fast!

go into your windows directory, open php.ini and search for register_globals and set to true.
