Cheeky Monkey Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Hi, Have got to the Install screen for OSCommerce, but nothing happens when I click install. Possibly because I have no Db yet on my site!!!? I can access phpMyadmin from my host's control panel, and can create a simple database - but cant seem to export it to my site. Can someone tell me if there is a template Db or how I get over this part and onto site configuration? Where would the Db sit within FTP/site heirarchy? Sorry to ask such simple questions!

Ok - i think I now know this is a Step 2 issue that many people have. I created a php.ini file and set register_long_arrays = ON. However - no change:( I created the php.ini in word and all it has in it is register_globals = ON register_long_arrays = ON Can anyone offer advice?
spax Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 First off, don't use Word to create or edit any files. Use a plain text editor. If you are allowed to use a local php.ini file, I think it would still need a server re-start to take effect. Something else you could try is doing a search through your files and replace $HTTP_GET_VARS, $HTTP_POST_VARS and $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS with $_GET, $_POST and $_COOKIE I'm not sure how well that works but worth a go.
