Getting 403 error on install .. could it be the config file?

[Guest]

4. View the file catalog/includes/configure.php and make necessary changes.

 

Now you can use your browser to view the pages which should be located at

'http://localhost/catalog/'. You can also use your browser, or a graphics

viewer/editor, to view the database model which is located in the directory

where you extracted the files

'tep_catalog-pr2.1/tep_database_model-pr2.1.gif'.

 

Hi.. Im up to this section of the install of the catalog part of oscommerce.

 

Now.. I believe i configured the file correctly, here is an out take of the file itself...

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)

// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.SECRET.com.au'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.SECRET.com.au'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); // absolute path required

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');

define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');

define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');

define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');

define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');

define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');

define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

 

define('DIR_WS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'pub/');

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['/home/virtual/SECRET/var/www/html/']); // 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_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_CATALOG);

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');

 

// define our database connection

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'SECRET);

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'SECRET);

define('DB_DATABASE', 'SECRET');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?

define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

?>
