Guest Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 Good evening all! I was hoping that someone might be able to offer me some support. I am usually quite capable of managing PHP coding etc. for different software but I am having NO LUCK with this. 1st : I hear a lot of talk about an intall.php file. Well, I don't have one of these. 2nd : I have changed the configure.php file and am getting the message "cannot connect to database server" whenever I try to visit my store. Is there anyone out there with MSN Messenger / AOL Messenger etc who might be able to help me out? Thanks in advance Eddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqua121 Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 Hi Eddy, Have you seen either of the installation guides yet? http://guide.oscdox.com/ or this http://www.designhosting.biz/downloads/osc...de/oscguide.pdf I hope they'll help. :) and if you could post which version of osC you're using, it might help to help you :wink: Susan Cheers, Susan * * * * * Find a way, or make one!

toolcrazy Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 First go get 2.2cvs, sounds like you have 2.1tep. 2.1 doesn't have any install script and also doesn't have anymore support on this site. Then go to: http://guide.oscdox.com And study it. Steve ------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan0815 Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 I somehow think you might be using 2.1. If that is the case - there is no install directory in 2.1. Use a snapshot version, it contains an install directory in the catalog directory. Your second problem coudl be related. In 2.1 all configuration is done in the application_top.php file, to be found under catalog/includes and admin/includes. There shoudl be no configure.php with 2.1. HTH You can't have everything.

HaggisBoy Posted February 14, 2003 Share Posted February 14, 2003 Hi All, it's Eddy Two here. I had to create this new username 'cos my old was wasn't working and it said that my username and password didn't match the bla bla bla. Whatever :P . Just wanted to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH to all who offered support above - it worked and I have been able to set the store up. It's not working yet cos I have to make the modifications to the layout etc. but the actual system is working. I am eternally grateful. You're such a nice bunch ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
