Fatal Installation Problems

[Guest]

My website is on a hosted Windows server but supports PHP 5. The MySQL database is on a hosted Linux server.

 

I downloaded oscommerce-2.2rc2a.zip, unzipped and followed the installation instructions.

 

It's created a database with 47 tables, and they have data fields.

 

After entering database parameters, I got the following

(NB I have changed the domain name - but that's all)

 

Warning: parse_url(http://www.mydomain.org.ukd:\\\\websites\\\\mydomainorguk\\\\wwwroot\\\\Buth\\\\catalog\\\\) [function.parse-url]: Unable to parse url in d:\websites\mydomainorguk\wwwroot\Buth\catalog\install\templates\pages\install_4.php on line 75

 

 

followed by

 

The installation and configuration was successful!

 

 

The Administrator login didn't work, so I tried calling

 

http://www.mydomain.org.uk/Buth/catalog/in...s/install_4.php

 

but got

 

 

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required '../includes/database_tables.php' (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in d:\websites\mydomainorguk\wwwroot\Buth\catalog\install\templates\pages\install_4.php on line 13

 

 

Any suggestions, please ?

Hi

 

You will be best off with it all on one type and the same server

This error means that your Admin / includes / configure.php has not been written to.

I agree with Simon keep it on the same server if possible

I can't keep it on the same server without rewriting the whole of the existing website in MySQL/PHP, which would be a lot of work, as almost all the functionality is custom written in ASP with Windows databases.

 

Does that mean you recommend that I should give up any idea of running OS Commerce ?

 

I don't know what you mean by "Admin / includes / configure.php has not been written to" - what writes to it, what does it write, and where does it get the information from ?

 

Can you explain more please ?

 

Is it possible to get out of the situation.
