jeonghyunhan Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I bought an oscommerce template and a domain name at hostgator. I installed everything correctly (i think) by using an filezilla and uploading my osc (catalog) and going to my address and installing it that way. I uploaded all my items and finally finished but when I go to my site address it just goes to the host gator default page with options to go to control panel and such. Can anyone help me set this right? I went back and installed oscommerce through fantastico or something like that but it seems like thats not what im looking for as I also have a template I need to upload. Problem is that the template doesn't seem to be connected my site address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multimixer Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 It sounds like you made 2 installations, one via fantastico and one for the template? Is the template you bought a complete installation or just the template related files? Te best is, you go to your cpanel and look where is what located My community profile | Template system for osCommerce - New: Responsive | Feedback channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeonghyunhan Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 What do you mean complete installation or related files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multimixer Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 There are some templates that come with ALL osCommerce files included. So you need to upload and install this and nothing more. Some other templates contain just the necessary files ie hedaer, footer etc etc I don't know what you uloaded and to where. You need to fond this out first, the way to do it is to go to your cpanel and look where the files are located My community profile | Template system for osCommerce - New: Responsive | Feedback channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeonghyunhan Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 So i'm still not getting what multimixer is trying to say. I cannot seem to tell if my template came with all the necessary files or not. The site is www.parislee.net hosted by hostgator. I've installed the template once before through the documentation that came with the template but when I go to my site the site does not show anything.

multimixer Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 So, ok, right now you have the stock osCommerce installed. If you want to install a template now, it all depends from the "type" of the template, so in real only the template seller can help you. Anyway, lets try. Saying "template" there is a filestructure that you got and that have now on your computer, right? There are files and folders. Take a look at them. Are they like all fies of the stock osCommerce installation, or just some? Is there also a database coming with the template you bought?

jeonghyunhan Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 I'm not sure if it is files all from the stock oscommerce installation but it does come with a database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeonghyunhan Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 Now I cannot even install the template anymore. I upload the osc (catalog) folder and all its contents to my root directory using filezilla and go to my site/osc/install but I get error 404.
