Can't create category or manufacturer

[dszcz]

I have installed and configured cpCommerce. Everything seems to work and load until I try to create a category. I can vreate an announcement successfully, but not a category nor a manufacturer. I am a newbie and any suggestions would be appreciated

You need to explain what you did if you want anybody to help.

You could've done anything wrong.

Here goes...

 

I downloaded the cpCommerce, unzipped and did te edits to the _config.php file. set it to demo mode inline 107, (also tried setting to live)

 

ftp'd the cpCommerce folder to the domain/public_html folder.

 

changed access as listed in the _config.php file

 

executed the _install.php, set up the administrator account (completed successfully)

 

executed the admin/updates.php

 

executed the admin/announcements.php and successfully created an announcement

 

executed the admin/category.php unsuccessfuly

 

 

My _config.php
