register_globals is something that your hosting provider must turn on in their php.ini file. Without it you can't run the install or the shop.

hi,,

i have a static ip and i have alinux machine tha i host my webpage on so i do have total control of it....

Check to the attributes of the php.ini file and CHMOD it?

 

You could also try installing by www.yoursite.com/catalog/install/install.php

register_globals variable HAS to be set in php.ini to ON or 'IF' allowed in httpd.conf, .htaccess (Host have to have 'AllowOverride Options' or 'AllowOverride All' set in httpd.conf for your site)

 

php.ini look for and change to

register_globals = on

 

or in httpd.conf under your specific "VirtualHost" site:

php_value register_globals 1

 

 

or in all .htaccess files in each directory which has php files that are run add line:

 

php_flag register_globals on

 

 

Good Luck

hi..

 

still no go... i could be wrong but i dont thing it has to do anything to do wtih php.ini configuratoin or httpd.conf....i think it has more to do with scriptiong...

i could be in the left field on this one...

Sorry - it has EVERYTHING to do with php.ini (or in some Linuxs - this may be php3.ini or something - same basic thing)

 

Your host "MAY" have allow override on - thus can be changed in .htaccess file. If not then can NOT be set in .htaccess file

 

As per :http://php.net/ini_set

 

register_globals - Changeable: PHP_INI_PERDIR PHP_INI_SYSTEM

Where:

PHP_INI_PERDIR - Entry can be set in php.ini, .htaccess or httpd.conf

PHP_INI_SYSTEM - Entry can be set in php.ini or httpd.conf

 

 

See more about this variable at: http://php.net/register_globals

 

 

osC is working on NOT requiring this to be used. For MS3/MS4 release.
