New Install And Images won't show

This is my third OSCommerce install, but the first time i have had this problem.

 

None of the item images that come with the initial install would display. So I uploaded a test item, and that image won't display either.

I have used OSCommerce to make two other stores and never ran into this problem.

One thing that MAY be of importance is, while uploading the files via FTP I did get several errors saying "not all files could be copied" or close to that. If I got that error message I would then upload the contents to that file individually and I wouldn't get it again.

 

I am wondering if I should just stop now and re-upload all of the files before I get to deep into customizing.

Can I do this without going through the set-up steps again if I don't upload the "install" file?

 

I went through the configure file as suggested in another thread, but after making adjustments with no results I don't know if I did more harm than good :'(

O.k., What is happening is when adding a new item, the images are being uploaded to www.MYSITE.com/catalog/images/PICTUREHERE.jpg

 

there is no /catalog/images folder.

Just an /images/ folder

 

What file do I need to edit to get the pics to the correct folder?

I looked in /admin/categories.php but didn't see anything that looked useful(for a PHP dummy)

 

Any advice?

Michael,

 

Check your configure.php to ensure the path to the /images folder is correct. If you installed your store in your root, you should not have /catalog/ in the configure.php

Before I go messing up anything, which configure file do I need to edit?

I see 4 files:

/includes/configure

/admin/configuration

/admin/includes/configur

/admin/includes/configure

 

within the /admin/includes/configure/ file is this line:

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

 

Should I change that to: define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); ?
