Trying to Install on a Godaddy hosted site...

[GoingGone]

I've been trying to get a copy of osCommerce to work on a GoDaddy hosted website and have been having trouble... The largest problem, I think, is that I cannot seem to CHMOD any files. Also I cannot find the home directory...

 

and so my problem is not well explained... but I'm wondering if anyone else has any experiance with trying to set up this script on a GoDaddy hosted website?

 

 

I tried to install the script on my Powweb hosted site and it runs file.

 

 

Godaddy hosted copy:

Powweb hosted copy:

http://going-going-gone.subsoap.com/

 

I really need to get the Godaddy hosted copy to work as I'm doing this for a friend and I can't force him to rely on the uptime of my site.

 

BTW This is a great script! Congratz to the community here =]

 

 

(I'm aware that some of the images are unfinished... but that's okay -- as soon as I know it works I'll get the rest fixed up)

Someone?

 

Another thing that might help is that when I tried to import the sql file by hand it went fine... but then I didn't know what to do with the config files >__>

 

I have the same problem as: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=183146&hl=

 

but the question was never answered there :<

Do a search for godaddy problems and you may find the answer you need. I have seen people not able to ever get their site running correctly on godaddy as they have a lot of mysql issues even once you get your site up and going. Yahoo and godaddy are fine for static html sites but I would never use them for a site that uses a database.
