phasenine Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Hey guys. I recently installed my own apache server (2.0.53) with PHP5 and the latest version of mySQL. So I already searched the forums for PHP5 compatibility issues and modified my catalog/admin/includes/classes/upload.php from $this to //$this. But I noticed these people were having a problem at step two of the install process. I can't even get to step one. When I goto mysite.com/catalog I get this: "FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!" I've tried enabling it and trying again... no luck... I'm not going to downgrade to PHP4 so any chance this is solvable or am I just out of luck till the next version of osC is released? If so, any estimation on time till they release the next version? Thanks in advance for the help guys! -PhaseNine osCommerce Newbie ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdaleh2 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I already tried. Weird huh? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I had this same issue and I am also using php5, latest mysql and apache2. I enabled the register globals and restarted apache and it worked. Try restarting apache. However, I am one of the many that are stuck on step 2. I'm thinking there is an incompatibility with apache2. I haven't had time to research this yet, however while searching the internet for tips, somewhere along the way I remember someone saying to not use apache2. Good luck.

phasenine Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Here is the answer to your questions: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=93343&hl= This will patch osCommerce to work with PHP5. You guys should put a thread in the installation forum (sticky) that points people to this contribution. -Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
