Basically, the default values are needed to connect to the MySQL database your provider has set up or you need to set up for oscommerce to connect to. This must also must be done to the catalog/admin/includes/configure.php with the same data as above Chris

Here is what I did before I had the program: I tried to install a contribution: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,160 but I made a copy of each file I was replacing to install the contribution. Once I saw the problem, I reloaded the original files but the problem continued...does this make any sense to you?? thanks am illion for anything you can tell me

Not sure what I've done...please help Hi Did you install oscommerce urself or did u do it using fantastico ? Either ways ... there seems to be a problem with accessing information from sql database. You have to tell ur oscommerce where to store information by giving it proper userid n password to sql. Just try to make the changes members have advised in above threads or create a new sql from ur control panel, add a user with a password to that sql and then proceed with the installation. Upload the latest version of oscommerce and then do the fresh install. This way u wount be overwriting any vital information in ur previous sql. If you can do it its good, or else just email me the details of ur server and i will do it for u :)
