ok. these are the instructions. 1) Execute the "common.sql" with PHPMyAdmin or another MySQL-Client, as well as "english.sql"

 

2) Use a file compare program to compare the included files.

 

Look for Code surrounded by // PWA BOF and // PWA EOF.

 

pretend i am an idiot. how do i execute .sql files AND once i find Code surrounded by // PWA BOF and // PWA EOF, what do i do with it?

 

thanks for any help.

the SQL you need to execute in phpmyadmin via your Control Panel.

 

Look at an earlier version of the contribution for manual install help.

 

Might be that this is a fresh install only

How do I install PWA 0.910?

The included Install_Instructions.txt is pretty clear about hat to do. Eg, in part they say

 

STEP 3:

 

Go into your server's backend and use a SQL tool such as PHPMYADMIN to run the following SQL scripts.

 

Make sure you have backed up your database first!!!

 

EITHER:

 

Run the included sql file pwa_install.sql

 

OR:

 

Manually run this script:

 

ALTER TABLE customers ADD purchased_without_account TINYINT(1) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL AFTER customers_id;

ALTER TABLE customers ADD INDEX (purchased_without_account);

INSERT INTO configuration_group VALUES (40, 'Accounts', 'Configuration of Account settings', 40, 1);

INSERT INTO configuration VALUES ('', 'Purchase Without Account', 'PWA_ON','true','Allow Customers to purchase without an account', 40, 1, '2003-04-08 13:07:44', '2003-04-08 12:10:51', NULL, 'tep_cfg_select_option(array(\'true\', \'false\'),');

ALTER TABLE orders ADD purchased_without_account TINYINT (1) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;
