Installation

[davidvi]

:blush: I installed Oscommerce on a w2k system, with Apache webserver running, Mysql and PHP are installed. I did edit the file httpd.conf for Apache and the php.ini.

 

If I start the local site http://localhost/catalog/install/index.php and choose 'Install a new Online store' the next page appears http://localhost/catalog/install/install.php?step=2, so far so good, if I now choose 'continue' there happens nothing.

 

I alreadt checked the user rights on the files, everyone has full control....

 

Please help, I probably do something complete wrong......

Did you set up a blank database, using phpMyAdmin?

Yep, I named it OsCommerce. I also checked it and there is a database wich I can edit.

To be honest I used the Mysql tool to create the database and not the PhpMyadmin tool.....

 

Does that explain my problem?

I had this problem too. I found out that I was trying to use PHP 5.0 and osCommerce only works with 4.x

 

Check to see which version of PHP you have installed, and I bet it's 5. Go and download 4.3.9 from www.php.net and you should be able to make it past the install step 2 page.
