Guest Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Just wanted to add a note that osCommerce does not inherently support PHP5.0 (PHP5 came out after MS2). If you can't avoid using PHP5.0 search this forum for +PHP5 +$this for extra information. There are also some configuration issues using IIS as well. You migh want to try a WAMP setup using EasyPHP (free), which is quite popular here for local installation. For the Database Problem above, it might be a good idea to create a new username/password for that database and ensure that you have all access privileges. You can do this easily with phpMyAdmin (also included + configured in EasyPHP). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned about PHP version above, because after you get pass that problem you'll get a warning about $this (from version compatibility) in your store. Good luck! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baghera Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I had the same problem. Solved it by downgrade the PHP version to 4.3.10 and now it works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
