New Installation - Didnt work - Please Help!

[dodiewayne]

I have ordered hosting that has basically a "install" button for Oscommerce via Fantastico. SO...I did this and it returns as completed but with this information:

 

Warning: include(/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/fanta… [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /tmp/cpanel_phpengine.1261793909.1811lFQ… on line 1705

I have tried going to my site "yesterdee.com" and if you will visit it you will see that I see nothing but

 

What on God's green earth have I done wrong??? I have tried to install this several several times and I am getting so frustrated. My first attempts where done with another hosting company. I purchased a years worth of hosting only to find out that I had to manually install the files for this. Well I did and I had no luck at all! Nothing worked! Each install says to finish go to yoursite.com/install - well when doing that I only get a returned page from Yahoo saying this doesn't exist. I followed the quick install guide precisely. Nothing would ever install or even go to where I could see anything happening?

 

 

SO I decided maybe I just screwed it all up and I went and found a host that offered the one click install for oscommerce....so I bought a years worth of hosting here. Switched my domain name here and still nothing! All I get is some type of index page when I type in my domain name and when I type in the instructed yesterdee.com/admin....nothing comes up but the yahoo not found page. When I did the installation through Fantastico it returned the warnings that you find in the top of my post.

 

 

Please tell me what I have done wrong and what I can do to fix this. I really need to get this site built but this really seems to be a big road block.

Looks like it's working now. The next thing to do will be to apply the needed security fixes - read through any recent 'hacking' thread for links to the threads with the fixes you need to apply.

Ok yes you are right now it is working! Now you say I need to apply "fixes" for hacks and such. Is there a bundle I can upload or do I need to go through each and every add on and download that way? Do you have any specific recommendations? I see there is 243 pages of add-ons so which ones do I need to install?
