jhansen Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Hi, I'm a n00b and need some help installing osC. When I try the database installation I can't connect to it. Must I make a new database for this ? Or does osC make this database itself when the path is right... - Jim - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhansen Posted January 30, 2004 Author Share Posted January 30, 2004 Ok.. I made a connection to the database at last, wrong password, but another problem came up.. -----!----- New Installation osCommerce Configuration The following error has occurred: The configuration files do not exist, or permission levels are not set. Please perform the following actions: cd /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/paintballportalen.no/httpdocs/catalog/includes/ touch configure.php chmod 706 configure.php cd /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/paintballportalen.no/httpdocs/catalog/admin/includes/ touch configure.php chmod 706 configure.php If chmod 706 does not work, please try chmod 777. If you are running this installation procedure under a Microsoft Windows environment, try renaming the existing configuration file so a new file can be created. -----!----- Any suggestions ?

Guest Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 1. Don't bump your messages. It's a good way to get the thread deleted. According to the timestamps I see on your messages, you posted to "bump" less than 45 minutes after posting your question. Most readers of the board don't monitor contantly. Let it wait a day or so at least - and if you must bump, do it by giving more information that might be helpful. 2. The search function is your friend. Just half an hour after your first post, you found the answer to your first question, yes? 3. Follow the instructions that the installer gave you: Please perform the following actions: cd /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/paintballportalen.no/httpdocs/catalog/includes/ touch configure.php chmod 706 configure.php cd /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/paintballportalen.no/httpdocs/catalog/admin/includes/ touch configure.php chmod 706 configure.php If chmod 706 does not work, please try chmod 777. If you are running this installation procedure under a Microsoft Windows environment, try renaming the existing configuration file so a new file can be created. Search the forums for CHMOD if you don't know what that means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
