Having Trouble Installing

I'm a new user and for some strange reason after doing the Pre-Configuration Installation i cant get it to start up with the regular installation. When i get done with the Pre- Config, I get to the part "When finished with the above setup, open your web browser, and point it to http://yourserver/catalog/install/ and follow the Installation Procedure." I dont really understand what it means to plug that into the brower, cuz when i do, it does nothing. If anyone can help me out, i would really appreciate it.

You have more information? Any errors in your /var/log/apache*/error.log?

 

You have the right ownership/permission on files?

chown www-data:www-data

chmod -R 755 *

 

This is asuming your in linux, if your in windows check your ISS logs or wherever your server logs are.

You might also not have your PHP settings right, check you php.INI settings, make sure if it's apache you have the

 

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml

AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

 

uncommented for apache2

or for apache SSL/1.3

 

#AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3

#AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps

#

# And for PHP 4.x, use:

#

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

 

G'd luck with your install :) I've been having lots of fun too :)

I'm sporting osCommerse 2.2.ms2

With these additions:

 

I worry about if take credit cards? I wonder if I make a shop that keeps track of how much product I have? If I find somthing good it'll be out of my budget, I'm trying to start a shop to make money not spend it..

Quot the raven "Never more." Get osCommerse never worry, or wonder again.

I'm in windows and i have no idea what you just said, lol, sorry. I think i did everything right but for some reason it still isnt working. I uploaded the program to my server, but im not real sure what the web server document path is. If it helps, im using 818hosting with windows. After i uploaded it to the server, i went to the catalog/includes/configure.php file and changed it to read/write/execute, but after that, im lost. If anyone can help out i'd be grateful.

You also need to change the catalog/admin/includes/configure.php file to read/write/execute for the install.

 

Once you've done that, and after you have created a blank database, you go to http://www.yourdomain.com/catalog/install to begin the install procedure.

 

You can also read the 'Quick Install Guide' link below my name.

Here's what I get:

 

 

Not Found

The requested URL /catalog/install was not found on this server.

 

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

 

Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.mydomain.com Port 80
