make sure your server qualifies for the minimum requirements of oscomerce:

osCommerce can be installed on any server where a web server with PHP has been installed on and has access to a MySQL database server.

you need php 4.0 and up

 

start fresh.

download the oscommerce script from here again: http://www.oscommerce.com/solutions/downloads

 

extract and upload the catalog folder to your host

 

create your database and databse user

 

start the installation.
