New Instalation Problem

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

i am try to do a new install but cant get past step 2. I hit the continue button but it seems to be going no where. i have a blank DB in place. My installation was not starting up saying that Register globals are disabled so i enabled it by doing this in the .htaccess file -

 

<IfModule mod_php4.c>

php_value session.use_trans_sid 0

php_value register_globals 1

</IfModule>

php_value register_globals 1 ****

 

I just put this code in could that be causing the problem?

 

but without this i cant even see the installation page.

 

Thanks

Ajay.

What configuration does you hosting provider offer (php/linux/windows etc.)?

 

But Dose not Oscommerce say

 

"Both Windows and Linux/Unix packages contain the same files, they are only packaged with different compression solutions." ???

It does, but to narrow the search for your problem I asked for the server configuration. What version of php do they use?

 

The PHP version is 5.1.6

Oscommerce has problems with php5, have a look at this post regarding php5.

 

Thanks for the pointer bud , but as i said i am new to php so please tel me this how do i do the following?

 

 

1: Change in php.ini

You have to create this file and place it in your catalog folder.

 

 

ok

so i just write this

 

register_globals = On

register_long_arrays = On

 

and save the file as php.ini and put it in my catalog folder??

>_< The funny thing is in my upload.php there is no $this = null; on any line.

i did create the php.ini file and put it up. but my install is still stuck on page 2

this is what is happening

when i go to my site this is what i see first

http://www.safepune.com/install/index.php

i have not put it inside the catalog folder so as soon as i say safepune it goes to http://www.safepune.com/install/index.php

when i click on install

http://www.safepune.com/install/install.php

then when i press continue it gives me

http://www.safepune.com/install/install.php?step=2

but the page does not change. its like its a non mover :blink:

 

i am just stuck i think my brain has gone blank due to which i can`t understand whats going on.

 

thanks

If this doesn't work replace the text from the htaccess file in the webroot with these two lines:

 

php_value register_globals 1

php_value register_long_arrays 1
