Admin Installation Problem

[logicshed]

Hello everyone....

 

I have successfully installed OScommerce to a point. I have the front end up and working with no problems. The Administrative backend is a different story though. The error is pasted below. Can anyone please tell me what this means and any info on how to fix would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much....

 

Thanks

Jay

 

When I typed in the URL and try to get into my Admin area I get the following error:

 

1046 - No Database Selected

 

select configuration_key as cfgKey, configuration_value as cfgValue from configuration

Check if configure.php in (catalog/)admin/includes has been written to and has been written to correctly.

 

If information is missing or incorrect, change it. Look at catalog/includes/configure.php for reference (if that one's configured correctly that is)

What should it look like? What should have been written to the config file?

 

Thanks for your response....I appreciate your help.

 

Thank you

Jay

 

HERE IS WHAT MY CONFIG FILE LOOKS LIKE:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', ''); // eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost should not be NULL for productive servers

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', '');

define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', '');

define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'false'); // secure webserver for catalog module

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/');

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_ADMIN);

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_CATALOG);

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');

define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');

define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');

define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');

define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');

define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'includes/languages/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_LANGUAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'includes/languages/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'images/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'includes/modules/');

define('DIR_FS_BACKUP', DIR_FS_ADMIN . 'backups/');

 

// define our database connection

define('DB_SERVER', '');

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'mysql');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'osCommerce');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false');

define('STORE_SESSIONS', '');

[Winterchild]

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://localhost'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://localhost');
 define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', '');
 define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'false'); // secure webserver for catalog module
 define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', 'D:/rootstuff//'); // where the pages are located on the server
 define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/');

 

for example

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://localhost'); in stead of define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', '');

 

It should be filled in. See above code example

If your catalog does work, look at the configure.php file in catalog/includes for an example how the admin configure.php should look like (sort of)
