mnewgent Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 :'( Hello All, I was finally succesfull in getting the osCommerce software uploaded via FTP. I am now on the "new instalation page". I'm not exactly sure what is being asked for under the four fields on this page; "data base server" , username, password & database name. If I'm using godaddy.com so does that mean www.godaddy.com my data base server? If so, then should I be using my username and PW that I use to sign on to godaddy orr is data base server ft.mywebsiteaddress.com? then my username and password to sign into my ftp? what do I put for my data base name? Thanks for the help! [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
web-project Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 If I'm using godaddy.com so does that mean www.godaddy.com my data base server? no, normally localhost or dedicated IP address Please read this line: Do you want to find all the answers to your questions? click here. As for contribution database it's located here! 8 people out of 10 don't bother to read installation manuals. I can recommend: if you can't read the installation manual, don't bother to install any contribution yourself. Before installing contribution or editing/updating/deleting any files, do the full backup, it will save to you & everyone here on the forum time to fix your issues. Any issues with oscommerce, I am here to help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 You did created a dbase before installation?.The server would be a localhost and then the dbase name what you created and password.Most of the time - your loging name will be the first and the dbase name: if your loging name to your vdec or cpanel is "someone" and dbase name is "osc then the dbase name would be "someone_osc". The dbase name what you have to put in install and username will be equal and then put your password what you created.The username would be "someone_osc".
