alright i just bought hosting with apollo and i ftped in and it said httpdocs is your root, and the index.html file should go there... so i copied all the files in the catalog folder from oscommerce into the httpdocs folder and when i load the page nothing comes up and it says cannot find file index.html and i noticed in oscommerce its called index.php so thats why its not loading how do i go about installing oscommerce? thankyou,

First off - if your new company offers a money-back period take them up on it and find a host that doesn't use this crap system of seperate httpdocs and httpsdocs folders. They're nothing but trouble.

 

If you want to go ahead and install then you'll find full instructions in the Knowledge Base.

 

Your path to install is http://www.yourdomain.com/install or http://www.yourdomain.com/catalog/install if you have placed osCommerce in the 'catalog' folder in your root directory.

alright so what would be a decent host thats fairly cheap and has a domain name included in the package? thanks alot!

 

a decent host depends on where you are.

I am in Taiwan so my hosts are a little different from yours. Check out their conditions and associated costs.
