PLZ. HELP !!! T I A !!!

 

How can it be crap when so many of us all have it running fine, maybee you should learn what the errors are before starting to call something amazing you are getting for free.

 

I wish i could help you with all your errors but i dont no some of them although if you type them in on google im sure you can find out what they mean

[♥Vger]

All of the later errors are caused by the first. The first is caused by not selecting to store sessions in the database when you installed osCommerce.

 

Edit both configure.php files so that the last line of both files reads 'mysql' where indicated.

hi Vger,

first of all sorry for my unfriendly first posting.

thank you for your recommendation regarding modifying last line of configure.php,

now the most warnings disappeared, but i still keep getting error messages regarding language!

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Warning: main(includes/languages/.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\x\xampp\htdocs\myshop\catalog\includes\application_top.php on line 285

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

in the meantime i've tried installing osc on linux, after installing and configuring mysql, php, phpmyadmin separately, but i get this fatal error regarding langunge on linux too :blink:

 

please help... i think i will love osc :D

 

regards,

check your configure.php file again and make sure this line looks like this. looks like an additional foward slash somewhere

  define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

[osc-test]

hi bill110,

i've checked that line several minutes ago, but it seems to be okay.

i guess the variable with value "english" or "german" is missing... because it has to be 'includes/languages/english.php' or

'includes/languages/german.php" please help me to find out why this variable is not delivered?

i think the bold marked part is most important.

It apparently constructs the path using the define_language.php file using the paths in the configure files.

Did you try to reinstall using the settings vger suggested? And did you get your copy of osCommerce from this website or somewhere else?

[osc-test]

hi there,

of course i have installed osc with the option to store session data to database.

(but this has nothing do do with my current language problem i think)

of course i've downloaded the *tgz file from here (official oscommerce website).

after that i've extracted the tarball file on the same server where the file was downloaded.

 

somehow this define_language.php script doesn't work... i guess...

Does your catelog/includes/application_top.php line 285 look like this?

require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '.php');

I got mine to give me the same error when I changed it to

require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES '.php');

[osc-test]

hi,

yes, the line 285 looks like this:

 

  require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '.php');

 

if i change this to

 

require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . 'german.php');

 

it brings another error:

 

Warning: main(includes/languages//index.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /srv/www/htdocs/myshop/catalog/index.php on line 33

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'includes/languages//index.php' (include_path='.:/php/includes') in /srv/www/htdocs/myshop/catalog/index.php on line 33

 

the solution can't be to "hack" manually every php file :(

I was'nt really trying to do that. It appeared that on the install something did'nt get written correctly by the install. That's the reason i asked about if you got the program from here. That's also why my previous post.

Thought it may have been missing.

one last note. I downloaded the windows package that was in zip format. Also it was an earlier update version. If you want to try the one I have PM me and I will try to e-mail it to you. it's 1.8meg.

[osc-test]

just as an impulse:

 

now i tried to install osCommerce 3.0 Alpha 3 and it says:

 

register_globals On x

 

althought it's on! :blink:

 

maybe that's the problem? but if it's the case, i guess i wouldn't be able to install osCommerce 2.2 ?!

[osc-test]

unfortunately the other version won't work too :( i keep getting exactly the same erorr like before.

gonna have to look after some commercial e-commerce solutions bcs. this is not acceptable :(

remember: i'm not the only one user having this issues! just search for "line 285" in this subforum....

anyway, thank you for taking the time for trying to help me.

 

regards

[osc-test]

finally, IT WORKS!!!

i just imported the database manually using phpmyadmin and then run Automatic Configuration without importing database catalog again.
