New Installation - help needed

[Rugman]

Hi,

 

I'm new to this kind of stuff so am struggling a bit.

 

A few questions if I may:

 

1. Upload all files

 

My url is .....rugs.co.uk with /web as the default directory where the index.htm (home) file would go.

 

Do I upload the catalog folder into the web folder or the root folder above?

 

2. Do I just upload the catalog folder or any others, i.e. extra, changelog etc?

 

 

3. I have uploaded just the catalog folder for now into the web folder but am getting:

 

Server Requirement Error: register_globals is disabled in your PHP configuration. This can be enabled in your php.ini configuration file or in the .htaccess file in your catalog directory.

 

Help :)

regarding the error, if you can ask your server people to enable register globals then good. If not, there is a contribution which allows you to run oscommerce, http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...egister+globals

 

 

install the catalog into the web folder, so that visitors would go to rugs.co.uk/catalog/index.php to get to your shop

 

upload just the catalog folder, none of the other stuff

Wow, no chance. You would think I had asked them to install a virus on thier servers by their response.

 

Guess I will have to use Richard's patch instead :thumbsup:
