How do I enable register_globals

[BryantSel]

I got the error when I went to the install page "FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!" How do I enable this?

I believe php.ini is controlled by your host and you have to have root access to change it. Email your hosting company and plead with them to enable it for you, or switch hosts. Sorry that's not the answer you were looking for. :(

With my webhost you create a php.ini file and put it in your http root. Then just put:

 

register_globals = 1;

 

in the php.ini file. You could also e-mail your webhost and ask how to enable it for osCommerce. If they won't or can't apparently the next version won't have this problem anymore so you could always wait.
