Copying folder to webroot

[The_DON]

Hi

 

Hmm

 

2. This creates a directory called 'oscommerce-2.2ms2'. Enter this directory

  and copy the 'catalog' directory to the webroot path of your webserver:

 

  cd oscommerce-2.2ms2

  cp -R catalog /usr/local/apache/htdocs/

 

  For this example, '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/' is used as the webroot path

  of the Apache webserver.

 

  Do the same for the 'admin' directory but rename the directory to a

  unique and secret name. This directory does not have to reside inside the

  catalog directory, though may need to be manually configured.

 

Its says to COPY it. Do I have to delete the one on the main server afterwards?

And If it still stays on the main server, should the Admin folder also be renamed?

 

 

Thanks in Advance

Are you asking wether you should keep a copy of the folder 'Catalog' on your PC?

 

If you are using Dreamweaver or something similar for configuring and adjusting the files then yes.

 

You would want a copy on your Server and your PC.

No..

 

I have to copy "CATALOG" to the webroot right?

But Should the original be deleted?Placed on the MAIN SERVER

 

 

and also..

 

www.mysite.com/catalog/install isn't working for me.....damn..

I mean if I got to /oscommerce-2.2ms2/catalog/install then it works

 

But I have to copy CATALOG to the webroot.

 

Then it doesnt work..

 

Could you know the problem?

Simply change the URL to the catalog in the configure.php files in:

 

catalog/includes/

 

catalog/admin/includes/

 

Take a look at these files and it'll be clear what you have to change. If you get stuck post back here...

Lets say I have nothing on the server.

Can't I just uploade :oscommerce-2.2ms2: ?

 

And don't do this :
