Installing osCommerce on "plask"

[Guest]

How to instal osCommerce on a server who running a server software named "plask". I have asked the adminstrators for the server and he is saying that the only way to connect a php file to the database is whit this code:

 

<?

// *****************************

$user = "Username";

$pass = "password";

$database = "databasename";

$db = mysql_connect("localhost",$user,$pass);

mysql_select_db($database,$db);

 

// *****************************

 

 

but how do i get this code into the configure file? I have tryed but it didn't work :(

 

 

Have a nice day.

When you install osCommerce you will have the option of inputting that information on the install screens:

 

Host 'localhost'

User Name 'Your User Name'

Password 'Your MySQL Password'

Database Name 'Name of the database you created in phpmyadmin'

plask or PLESK??

 

I have 3 OSC's running on plesk's

 

you have to create a database before you can install ocs.

 

log into plesk and add database, user, & user password.
