johnduo0007 Posted August 3, 2008 Posted August 3, 2008 Just got a new host these are the folders that appear in my ftp account: cgi-bin data errors html logs I don't know what folder to put my oscommerce in. My other hosting company had a folder named "httpdocs" which was the main one.
usernamenone Posted August 3, 2008 Posted August 3, 2008 Depends on your host. May not be in a folder at all but just uploaded or may go in the html folder. Send up a test index.html file to either and see what happens when you go to your web address.

If you want catalog after your domain name, ftp the osc catalog directory there. If you want want your store in the root, open your catalog directory and ftp all files and directories there.

Sorry I don't understand. whats my root directory? right now if I put anything in the html directory is shows up as my index, but can I put oscommerce in the html directory?
usernamenone Posted August 3, 2008 Posted August 3, 2008 Your host is using the html folder for you to ftp into. You should upload your catalog file there by extracting each folder out of the folder it lives in. You will ftp each inside folder into the html folder on your web server. remember to delete the index.html file first.
