♥Vger Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Windows server by any chance? Edit install/tamplates/pages/install_3.php and where you see: $sql_file = $dir_fs_www_root . 'install/oscommerce.sql'; change it to: $sql_file = 'path_to_root/install/oscommerce.sql'; For 'path_to_root' insert the pathway to the root of your osCommerce website. Vger
