mjhaston Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 I know it's a stupid question, but it's late, I just installed 2.1 manually and then saw the auto install with 2.2! How easy was that. Nice work. I have the preview and I'm wondering how I set it up to have a live shop? PS - I know it's phpBB, but I really like this forum. I currently us YaBBse on one of my sites. I like that, it's never been bad to me, but this is fast and slick looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattice Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 How do you mean how do you go live? Do you mean on a dedicated server? Do you mean on a shared host? Do you mean what other actions to take besides the installation of osC? ???

mjhaston Posted September 20, 2002 Author Share Posted September 20, 2002 I'm on a webhost, I guess virtual domain. I've setup the Preview version. I thought this was all ready for production. Just not sure how I go from Preview to working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seCret steVe Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 it is a snapshot. Not a fully completed program. It is good enough that it is running many other ecommerce sites as well: www.nstial.com/catalog/ and many others. This program OSC will not be completed with all of its fuctions by the end of this year sometime. There will be changes...rewrites of the code etc. You can still use OSC 2.2 recent snapshot and be able to open a live shop of your own. It is not hard to put on new scripts etc. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattice Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 It is ready for production. It's just not finalized. So the core dev team advised you to use 2.1 or keep updating the 2.2-CVS version. If you point your browser to http://www.yourdomain.com/catalog/default.php and you see the site it is operational. You need to adjust all the settings in the Admin to meet your requirements.

mjhaston Posted September 21, 2002 Author Share Posted September 21, 2002 Thanks guys. Maybe I just didn't configure enough. I was on 2.1 and upgraded to 2.2 last night. I've kept my eye on the project for about 6 months now. I'm not sure we'll use it. It's a youth football organization and I'm not sure how fancy they want to get! I just always get thrown by the comments on the front page of my default.php saying it's a demo. I guess I can change all that and "activate" it. I'm thinking if we do use this we'll just have people order it and pay cash when they pick it up or paypal at best. They won't want to get into the responsibility or legality of processing credit card orders and shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jloyzaga Posted September 21, 2002 Share Posted September 21, 2002 I don't understand - what autoinstall? :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhaston Posted September 21, 2002 Author Share Posted September 21, 2002 version 2.2 has an install/install.php it literally took a minute to install the catalog and admin. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 21, 2002 Share Posted September 21, 2002 I just always get thrown by the comments on the front page of my default.php saying it's a demo. In case you haven't found it .. catalog/includes/language/[english]/default.php >> define('TEXT_MAIN', ' this is the text you edit'); NOTE: if you are making any other languages available, you will need to edit the pages(default.php etc) within those directories also. -caz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
