Urgent Help : Pleeeeeease!!!

Recommended Posts

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

Hi Eddy,

 

Have you seen either of the installation guides yet?

or this

I hope they'll help. :)

 

and if you could post which version of osC you're using, it might help to help you :wink:

Cheers,

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.

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 ;)
