Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 I've been looking at osCommerce for quite some time now, and I have tried a couple of different times to set my site up with their catalog. I will be honest by saying I have no experience with programming or anything, I just know html stuff. I just need some help setting up the databases and some other things, and someone to help me if and when I have questions. I don't need any graphics or any appearance help, just setting up osCommerce's catalog and admin catalog. Please drop me an email if you're willing to help me out. Send me a PM or an email at: matt@mroyalty.net Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Matt, I was the same way, so I will be happy to help. You need to download "phpMyAdmin" and upload it on your web hosting area. This will make things a lot easier with the database stuff. Let me know if you gotten this far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Where do I get that from, phpmyadmin? I currently get an error when I error in the test connection area of setting up my database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Okay, I finally got to step 2, but now I don't know how to change the permission levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aodhan Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Okay, I finally got to step 2, but now I don't know how to change the permission levels. If you are using a graphical FTP client, then there should be a menu option for that. I don't know myself how to do it from a command prompt.

Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 I'm using WS_FTP Pro as my FTP client, I haven't found how to change the permissions yet with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Okay, I think I figured out how to change the permissions, I had to set the folders to 777, is that okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 When I open up my catalog, I have these warnings on the top of my browser, how do I change them? * WARNING_INSTALL_DIRECTORY_EXISTS * WARNING_CONFIG_FILE_WRITEABLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Do I have to change the header image, header_top_title, etc... manually? Also, what do those errors mean? http://www.tricityperformance.com/catalog/default.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 How should I change all of the text and images? I don't want to start screwing with the code if there is an easier way. Also, how come none of the names are coming up, instead they are coming up; TEXT_GREETING_GUEST, BOX_HEADING_CATEGORIES, HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG, HEADER_TITLE_TOP, etc. Did I do something wrong when setting up, or did I not do something? Thanks for all the help so far..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
