gcioffi Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 After going through a step by step installation and getting to the final page where i can click a button to go to either the catalog or the admin page, i get the following error whenever I try either. and i'm not sure what it means. [i} 1146 - Table 'sszymcz_productcatalog.configuration' doesn't exist select configuration_key as cfgKey, configuration_value as cfgValue from configuration [TEP STOP][/i} I've setup a basic database as instructed. Am I missing something? Thanks, Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIMBLE Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Either the database is not there the server is down the configure files have not been written Check that catalog (if in that folder) / includes / configure.php admin/ includes / configure.php have the data you entered when installing in them (like database names / passwords) store URL etc Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcioffi Posted December 31, 2008 Author Share Posted December 31, 2008 hi nic, both configure.php files have information regarding my database and server info written to them. the database is there also, but no tables have been created inside it.

FIMBLE Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 hi nic, both configure.php files have information regarding my database and server info written to them. the database is there also, but no tables have been created inside it. in that case you can either try once more to install, or just upload the database directly via phpmyadmin (from your Web site control panel) Is this a standard install, or template? Seems odd for it to have not imported properly, assuming it is actually in the install folder!

gcioffi Posted December 31, 2008 Author Share Posted December 31, 2008 it's a template purchased from TemplateMonster.com i used phpmyadmin to create the database, but i'm not sure what you mean by upload it directly? what file would i be uploading? thanks! in that case you can either try once more to install, or just upload the database directly via phpmyadmin (from your Web site control panel)Is this a standard install, or template?

FIMBLE Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Is the database actually in the install folder? it looks like a text file and will (should)be called oscommerce When you hover your mouse over it the tool tip will say SQL file. To upload to php myadmin, log into your control panel search for a link to SQL databases, phpmyadmin (depends on the type of server as to where it is) When phpmyadmin loads from the left select your database name from the dropdown box, it will load in the main window. Now from the top select import, a new page loads with an uploader, navigate to your database on your PC and select it, then click OK and it will upload Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
