mmp Posted January 6, 2005 Author Posted January 6, 2005 What is the complete URL? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> http://www.michaelmilner.com/store/catalog/index.php
♥Vger Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 Your 'install' directory is still there. Did you run the install procedure after setting up a blank database and uploading the catalog folder? Vger
mmp Posted January 6, 2005 Author Posted January 6, 2005 http://www.michaelmilner.com/store/catalog/index.php <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes I ran the catalog/install script and everything went through ok. The database was created by my hosting company. Do I need to create another and how do I do that if I do? Cheers Mike
♥Vger Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 As long as the install went okay, then what you have to do now is to delete the 'install' directory. Vger
mmp Posted January 6, 2005 Author Posted January 6, 2005 I deleted the install directory, however, I still get no return, just a blank screen. I have check out the database, and the tables are there using mySQL schema viewer. I appreciate your time to help mike
AlanR Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 The last time I saw someone with this problem they had a defective index.php file. Compare what's on the server with your local copy. There are 340 lines in a stock index.php file Local: Mac OS X 10.5.8 - Apache 2.2/php 5.3.0/MySQL 5.4.10 • Web Servers: Linux Tools: BBEdit, Coda, Versions (Subversion), Sequel Pro (db management)
bobg7 Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 Backtracking the URL a little: http://www.michaelmilner.com/store/catalog/index.php http://www.michaelmilner.com/ Takes me to the MICHAEL MILNER PHOTOGRAPHS page. http://www.michaelmilner.com/store/ Takes me to an Index of /store http://www.michaelmilner.com/store/catalog/ Is the blank page. Most times when OSC is setup, people set it up to www.domain/store or www.domain/catalog not both. Which makes me wonder if the absolute path in configure.php line 33 of /catalog/configure.php is not set correctly. Example: define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/www/michaelmilner.com/catalog/'); Your can try: define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/www/michaelmilner.com/store/catalog/'); If that works, also change it in the admin configure.php or you will not be able to find your admin screens.

mmp Posted January 6, 2005 Author Posted January 6, 2005 I made a fresh ftp of the files using a different ftp program which seems to have corrected the problem. I would say some files were uploaded incorrectly. Thank you to all for your kind help in leading to the resolution of the problem. I hope as I become more familiar with php and the program, I can return the favour. Thanks again Mike
