Guest Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 There's an error in either the admin directory or database information. First try an do a reinstall from install.php "Do not reload database." Just configuration settings. The admin isn't connecting it's attributes with the db. I have pulled my hair out with this for 3 days.... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! Can somebody please help in detail as new users cannot understand the jargon. If suggesting reinstallation of install.php then can you please tell how to do this without detriment to all of the hard word modifying the site to get it to its current point. Why do the Paypal & Shipping modules seem to cause problems for so long ( I have read threads back to 2004)? Many thanks Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobicky Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hi Where is install.php located? I take it I need to backup the site before I do the reinstall!? How do I just do configure files in the reinstall? Kind Regards Toby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usernamenone Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Do not reinstall before you check permissions in your admin. in your browser access admin. navagate to Tools and choose File Manager. Look at your payment modules and see what permissions are there? This is what you should see for both of them. drwxrwxrwx Also state any contribs you have used, Templates?

I tried editing the configure.php to 'store sessions' - 'myslq' however this didn't work. The configure has it's permissions set to 444 (chmod?) . This gets rids of an error message at the top of the site which says 'error unable to write config files...' No templates used...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usernamenone Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 If you don't have an error at the top of the page, That is realy a warning and I wish oscommerce would call it a warning, (must be something with the translation) then your permissions are correct. Now, what sql problems are you having? When posting it is helpful if you list as many details as possable so you will get the help needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobicky Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 It's really revolving around payment, so far I have sucessfully installed the protx-form module but the problem lies when I try to update the payment modules, including the existing paypal. I can install the modules fine from the admin section but when I try to update the details, they are reverting to the default. I have been told it could be that the db isn't storing the session and i tried changing my configure.php file FROM: define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql' TO: define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql'); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql' However this doesn't seem to have made a difference. I hope this is enough information, Kind Regards Toby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usernamenone Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Do you know how to check read/write permissions for files and folders on your web site? Go to Admin, Tools, File Mangaer. Make sure your admin is read and write (drwxrwxrwx) with the exception of the includes configure.php which will be read only. This may be a permissions issue, so see if this helps.

I looked in the file manager and the majority of the files and folder(s) contained a lot of ( - ) dashes. For Example: The admin/includes/configure.php is : -r------- The admin folder is : drwxr-xr-x I hope this helps? Kind regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GemRock Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 ...I cant make any changes to any payment module. i can remove and install modules but cant make any changes within them... If your version of osc is the 060817 update release, then there is a known 'bug' in the compatibility.php file. Read the 060817 update released thread under the Nesw and announcement section ( just the first few pages), theres a fix for it.

nudylady Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 In the catalog/admin/modules.php file around line 42 I had to add this line to reset the array index. reset($HTTP_POST_VARS['configuration']); I dont know if this os OK or messes up some other part of the code (Any expert out there, please advise), but it works for me. This is the block of code that I placed the above code snippet into. if (tep_not_null($action)) { switch ($action) { case 'save': reset($HTTP_POST_VARS['configuration']); while (list($key, $value) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS['configuration'])) { tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " set configuration_value = '" . $value . "' where configuration_key = '" . $key . "'"); } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
