Pre-Install Configuration question

[kbane]

Hi everyone,

 

I am trying to install osCommerce and am at the point in Pre-Installation Configuration where I just changed the configure.php file to 777 and it says:

 

"When finished with the above setup, open your web browser, and point it to http://yourserver/catalog/install/ and follow the Installation Procedure."

 

When I do this, I go to a page with code not a web page. It looks like this:

 

"<?php

/*

$Id: index.php,v 1.1 2002/01/02 13:02:38 hpdl Exp $

 

osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions

*/

 

require('includes/application.php');

 

$page_file = 'index.php';

$page_title = 'Welcome';

$page_contents = 'index.php';

 

require('templates/main_page.php');

?>"

 

I'm not a programmer, just trying to install this myself. I already have another web site running on this same server so I'm guessing its not a PHP problem but something I did?

 

Any help is sincerely appreciated!

This will usually happen if PHP is not running on your server. Is your other website using PHP?
