No such file or directory? Huh?

[devinrayolsen]

Ok so this is my first time working with osCommerce so please I understand there are lots of threads on here that talk about this exact issue but from what I have been reading and trying nothing seems to help me.

 

I just downloaded oscommerce-2.2rc2a.zip and uploaded the "catagory" folder to my web server root directory (/var/www/html/catagory/).

 

I went through the setup process and created my database in MySQL named it (cart).

 

Continued through the setup process and even received a conformation thanking me for choosing osCommerce.

 

My database has been populated with tables and everything looks like it was a go. However when clicking on either of the two buttons on this conformation page "Catalog" or "Administration Tools" it get taken to either:

 

http://www.mywebsite.com/catalog/admin/login.php

or

http://www.mywebsite.com/catalog/

 

and receive PHP include and require errors along the lines of this.

 

Warning: require(includes/languages/.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/catalog/admin/includes/application_top.php on line 157

Warning: require(includes/languages/.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/catalog/admin/includes/application_top.php on line 157

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/languages/.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php/lib/php') in /var/www/html/catalog/admin/includes/application_top.php on line 157

 

This is just crazy cause I indeed do have these files I am looking at them through my FTP program right now and know they exists. So why the errors?? I was under the impression that this is a out of the box install and wouldn't have to thumb through my configure.php files in both include folder... Is this not the case?? Do I have to manually setup these configure.php files by hand even though the setup process asked me for all the information that these configure.php files would need??

 

 

Thanks everyone for your time.

I get the exact same error, if you figure it out can you please post your findings. I have searched the forums and cant find an answer to this problem, apparently we are not the only ones, if you google the error there are tons of stores with the exact error.

Well I have ran a php info test on my web server and it looks like it supports PHP Version 5.2.6. So I can eliminate a version mismatch. I installed osComerce on my local Apache web server and everything was fine no missing required includes. So I guess me next questions is are their certain variables in my PHP.ini file that need to be activated or turned off to resolve this required includes issue?

 

 

Thanks for you time.

Jesus forget this shopping cart. I love the active help around here!!

 

I don't care that you are open source and no one gets paid here to help people around here.

There are plenty of open source apps on the net with great and helpful members. Your product blows hard and will continue to blow hard until you get some freaking help and some decent beta testers.
