I am getting your standard error saying to delete the /install directory.

Pink bar at top of screen, when hitting the catalog directory.

 

I have deleted this directory and done a forced refresh.

 

I am still getting this error.

 

I can't think why this would be ????

 

Anyone know ?? I have searched through the forum but couldn't locate this problem.

 

Thank you.

 

 

(note)

I am on a windows server

I have copies OSC from a linux server and put it on my windows server, then ran the install and updated the database in myphpadmin.

Everything else works perfectly.

could be a server side issue, have a link?

If you're sure the directory is gone and you still have the problem go to the bottom of application_top.php and change this line.

 

// set which precautions should be checked

define('WARN_INSTALL_EXISTENCE', 'true');

define('WARN_CONFIG_WRITEABLE', 'true');

define('WARN_SESSION_DIRECTORY_NOT_WRITEABLE', 'true');

define('WARN_SESSION_AUTO_START', 'true');

define('WARN_DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY_NOT_READABLE', 'true');

Local: Mac OS X 10.5.8 - Apache 2.2/php 5.3.0/MySQL 5.4.10 • Web Servers: Linux

Tools: BBEdit, Coda, Versions (Subversion), Sequel Pro (db management)

Thank you for your input.

 

I have changed the value to false and re-uploaded the application_top.php file.

 

I am still having the same problem. It would seem it would be impossible for it to still show this error.

 

I have double checked that I have changed the file in /includes/ and I have downloaded the file off the server to make sure it has been changed, and the value for it reads :

define('WARN_INSTALL_EXISTENCE', 'false');

 

What the ??? How can I still have this error ???

 

I don't see how my ISP could have this page cached and I am doing a forced refresh and only getting a cached version... So what else could it be???

It seems as though you don't have permissions set on the files/folders so that when you upload a file via FTP it actually overwrites the existing file.

 

One other thing you could check is to delete all of your Temporary Internet Files and all Offline Content - in case you are seeing a local cached version in your browser.
