rughooker Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 I just installed osCommerce and have been playing all weekend. I installed through ipower.com per their suggestion. They installed version MS2. Is that common? I wanted to download STS and noticed that it required an upgrade first to RC1 then again to RC2. Sounds like a fresh installation on my own would be better. I have an outstanding tech support ticket with my host. I should have an answer this afternoon or tomorrow. I don't know if they have a reason for the older version. My store contains no products. I have done some minor configuration and got the CSS sheet just so, but I am guessing that the STS install will make the CSS changes invalid anyway. I am looking for the best and most flexible long term solution. What is the best path? I am assuming that I should upgrade. Should I go through the upgrade steps or simply reinstall? I noticed a similar thread in mid March, but there were no answers. Thanks in advance.

rughooker Posted April 15, 2008 Author Posted April 15, 2008 Reinstall, so delete files and empty the database. Update. I changed hosts (I was leaning that way anyway). My new hosting company installed the latest version AND asked me questions that resulted in a lot of the configuration work being done at installation.
Guest Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Update. I changed hosts (I was leaning that way anyway). My new hosting company installed the latest version AND asked me questions that resulted in a lot of the configuration work being done at installation. my host is ipower.com too. I am trying to upgrade to rc2 also. I am stuck because I can not find the rc1 files first. what is the best solution were you able to find it? Thank you in advance.
