osc administration working, but catalog site goes to fresh installation always

[vinaip]

I have installed OSC on my Windows XP PC, and edited the configure.php file. I am runnint it under locashost/catalog.

 

I am able to login to the administration site, and see the settings, products etc., But when I try to go to the shop site, it always brings me to the "http://localhost/catalog/install/index.php" and welcome screen, asking me to configure the shop again. I have already done the configuration several times, booted by PC, but to no avail - It always goes to configure a Fresh installation.. Please suggest what could be wrong.

What happens if you change the install directory to another name?

 

http://localhost/catalog/ is what you are putting into your browser.

 

My own prefernce is to install into a directory that reflects my domain name like http://localhost/my_domain.local/catalog/ just for when I am getting ready to ftp to the web.
