In both your configure.php files set:

 

  define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql');

Marvelous, Now I am getting:

 

Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/Ecom_2-001a/catalog/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file.

 

I have no SSL set-up and dont want one (this is only a local testing site) so how do I get rid of the above?

 

Thanks for your help!

I take it you are developing on Windows.... if so, right click the file>properties>set as 'read only'

[hydra22uk]

Already done, same error!

Thanks for your patience on this I am such a newbie!!

You sure you set the correct file? - you can turn off the warning...its at the bottom of application_top.php

 

  define('WARN_CONFIG_WRITEABLE', 'false');

This worked fine for me under Win2kSP4.

 

Johnson:

Got a Q...okay so I've set configure.php to read only as you suggested, and thanks ;)

 

My question now (and this is the very first time I've run Apache so I'm a bit of a newbie with all this) is for security...what is the suggested way to set it up? I have everything in my /www/ denied by default, my root denied, and no AllowOverride None. So in httpd.conf I have done the following:

 

<Directory "C:/FoxServ/www/catalog/">

AllowOverride None

Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec

<Limit GET OPTIONS PROPFIND>

Order allow,deny

Allow from all

</Limit>

<LimitExcept GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>

Order deny,allow

Deny from all

Allow from localhost

</LimitExcept>

</Directory>

 

<Directory "C:/FoxServ/www/catalog/admin/">

AllowOverride None

Order deny,allow

Deny from all

Allow from localhost

</Directory>

 

I am trying to allow everyone to use the catalog (obviously) as necessary but nothing else, and only allow myself on the serving machine to access everything (including admin). I guess technically the /admin/ specification wouldn't be needed...can you tell me if this is correct? Sorry again for being a newbie.
