Installing 2.2

[mjackson]

Obvisouly I've missed something simple. I'm new to PHP, but I can't even get passed the install.

 

I believe my PHP is installed correctly, because the infamous phpinfo() function works great.

 

I believe mySQL is installed correctly, because I can create the 'catalog' tables correctly by running the .sql script that creates them. I can enter data into them.

 

 

I've downloaded the osCommerce windows 2.2 version into D:DownloadsosCommerce22. The file name is: 'tep_snapshot-20021103.zip.

 

I've created the directories in C:InetPubwwwroot directory as specified in the documentation.

 

They are:

C:IntePubwwwrootcatalog

C:InetPubwwwrootadmin

 

I unzipped the download and ended up with:

 

D:DownloadsosCommerce22adminadmin

D:DownloadsosCommerce22adminCVS

 

D:DownloadsosCommerce22catalogcatalog

D:DownloadsosCommerce22catalogCVS

D:DownloadsosCommerce22catalogextras

 

I copied the D:DownloadsosCommerce22adminadmin folder to C:InetPubWWWRootadmin and copied the D:DownloadsosCommerce22catalogcatalog folder to C:InetPubWWWRootcatalog.

 

Then I created the 'catalog' database in mySQL, connected to it, tested the connection and all seems fine there.

 

Then, per the documentation, I invoked my IE5.5 browser, and type in the URL, HTTP://localhost/catalog/install/install.php. When I did this, the very top line of the page reads:

 

Notice: Undefined index: step in C:Inetpubwwwrootcataloginstallinstall.php on line 18

 

Then the page displays a little of what seems to be normal and correct, then displays:

 

Notice: Undefined index: DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT in C:Inetpubwwwrootcataloginstallincludesfunctionshtml_output.php on line 15

 

Notice: Undefined index: DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT in C:Inetpubwwwrootcataloginstallincludesfunctionshtml_output.php on line 15

 

Notice: Undefined index: DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT in C:Inetpubwwwrootcataloginstallincludesfunctionshtml_output.php on line 15

 

and may more Notice: lines regarding Undefined index

 

I would appreciate any help possible.

 

Thanks

HTTP://localhost/catalog/install/install.php.

 

what you do this for?

 

the install is in catalog/install/

 

because there is an 'index.php' file in the install folder. i think when you tried to reach 'install' you may have set something into action that wasn't ready.

 

i donno, i use unix.

 

but maybe that's it?
