♥altoid Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 in upgrading my shops during the 2.3.3.1 to 2.3.3.2 step I noticed my admin configure file is set up differently from the original file for the FS definitions: my files are about like so define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/myusername/public_html/'); define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/myadminfolder/'); define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/home/myusername/public_html/myadminfolder/'); define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/'); define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/myusername/public_html/'); the original OOB file is like like so define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs) define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/'); define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_ADMIN); define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_CATALOG); I don't recall why i set up the local path, should I be using define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_ADMIN); and so on instead and what's the implications of either set up? Thanks I am not a professional webmaster or PHP coder by background or training but I will try to help as best I can. I remember what it was like when I first started with osC. It can be overwhelming. However, I strongly recommend considering hiring a professional for extensive site modifications, site cleaning, etc. There are several good pros here on osCommerce. Look around, you'll figure out who they are.
