Hi MatthewMan,

 

In the Administration menu, you would find a menu called Cache Directory (under Configuration and Cache), change your files directory there. /tmp would refer to Linux/Unix directory, but since you're using Windows, the path is different, in your case c:whatever.

 

Regards,

Jalil

This is because there is no /tmp directory. Create a c:temp directory and then edit your php.ini file to reflect this.

This is because you do not have a mail server installed. Install one and configure php.ini correctly.

 

Any help please ?

well sorry about that, didn't know....

 

altough the problem was fixed not by editing php.ini but editing application_top.php and added this line

 

define('DIR_FS_CACHE','c:tmp');

 

... but now i do have a huge problem... oscommerce by itself is working ok but i need some edits in it.

 

here it goes....

 

I have a portal which already has a user registration and login and password encryption and i would like that OSC uses the same user table , same cookie to check if the user is logged on etc...

 

This is the encryption my portal uses to store the password in the mysql database

 

$pass2=base64_encode($password);

$insertuser=mysql_query("INSERT INTO users (userid,username,password,firstname,lastname,privliges,email,secretquestion,secr

etanswer,type) VALUES ('$id','$username','$pass2','$firstname','$lastname','1','$email','$question','$answer','$type')");

 

I also pasted the mysql query so you know the table name and fields that my portal uses. I need to do this because i don't want my visitors to have to re-register / re-login to use oscommerce

 

If i would need to add the address etc in the portal's user registration screen i do it but i would prefer it if a user checks out and inputs the address manually.

 

Thanks
