I have gone into c-pannel and installed oscommerce scripts. it gives me the links for http://mysite.com/admin and http://mysite.com/osc, but when i get there it gives me an error message:

Server Requirement Error: register_globals is disabled in your PHP configuration. This can be enabled in your php.ini configuration file or in the .htaccess file in your catalog directory

you need to look in your domain and see if you have a php.ini file installed, if not, you need to add one.

It seems to me that your PHP globals are not turned on, and so you will need to contact your server providor and ask them to turn them on. You can trey and edit your PHP ini file if it exist, but its a pro action and not really for noobs.

 

You could create a .htaccess file and put the following text inside....USE NOTEPAD ONLY!!!!

 

Options All -Indexes

 

php_value session.use_trans_sid on

php_value register_globals on

<Files ".ht*">

deny from all

</Files>

 

Then upload to the root directory of your server, that worked for me?
