File is in wrong directory in /home/.pescame/tandl/wholesale.timiandleslie.com/admin/categories.php on line 594 What do I do? Help would be much appreciated. Thank you, Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattice Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 do a search on 'open_basedir' on tghe forums. It's a php setting that limits what you can access.

sarah J Posted December 16, 2002 Author Share Posted December 16, 2002 where would I find the tghe forum? sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattice Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Okay... this might come as a shock... ehm... You are on the forum right now. :D Sorry, could not resist... There is a search button in the right upper corner of the screen. Push that and you can search the forum... Oh and you can also have a look at www.php.net/open_basedir "Politics is the art of preventing people from taking part in affairs which properly concern them" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarah J Posted December 16, 2002 Author Share Posted December 16, 2002 thank you... your website isn't working... :lol: sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattice Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 My website as in PHP.net? I wouldn't mind having that but I am afraid it's not mine :D PHP is the language osCommerce is written in. The error you get is because the settings of PHP restrict where it can do what. (It's only allowed to look in certain folders). Contact your ISP (internet service provider / hosting company) they'll know what to do.

mattice Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Your welcome. I assume you allready know of the existence of www.oscdox.com ? They have a nice installation / customization guide. Another good source are the FAQs (frequently asked questions): http://www.oscommerce.com/community.php/faq "Politics is the art of preventing people from taking part in affairs which properly concern them" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WebGeek Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 'tghe' forums??? Do you mean 'The' forums or was that some sort "code speak" or something? I just don't understand you hackers! :? I haven't lost my mind, I have it backed up on disk, somewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
