Sowdy Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Hi, I'm stuck on the install process. Probably something really simple but I just can't seem to find it anywhere. 4. Create a directory called catalog/temp, (see below if your catalog isn't in a 'catalog' directory) and that it's permissions are set to allow writes to that directory, that would be 777 or rwxrwxrwx (in shell access - while you're in the catalog directory, execute "chmod 777 temp"). Where would I find 'catalog/temp'????? Thanks. Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥akmac Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Create a directory called catalog/temp<{POST_SNAPBACK}> You have to create a directory, name it "temp" and upload it into your catalog directory.

♥akmac Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Create a new directory in your catalog directory, and name it "temp". What are you using to customize your site? Do you have ftp access?

♥akmac Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I don't use the filemanager myself as it causes errors. Ftp in and create the directory. Quidquid latine dictum sit, profundum viditur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justmake Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I have ftp'd into the site......i have added a folder called 'catalog' in the directory that my installation of oscommerce is in. You dont need to create a folder called "catalog". CATALOG refers to the name you gave oscommerce, the top directory of oscommerce. Most people call thier installation "catalog" some call it "store" some call it "oscommerce". Its just the top directory of your store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
