The e-commerce.

Configure problem

Recommended Posts

I am new to php programming and I am trying to install osCommerce. Please let me know how to do the corrections that are suggested in Error Message 1. I did try the renaming of the configure.php file to configure_old.php and the process gave me Error message 2 - when I continued, the Administration Tool button (Error Message 3) and Catalog button (Error Message 4) gave me more error messages. I am lost and need help to figure this out.

 

ERROR MESSAGE 1:

The following error has occurred:

 

 

The configuration files do not exist, or permission levels are not set.

 

Please perform the following actions:

 

cd /home/taxing1/groomeez-www/catalog/includes/

touch configure.php

chmod 706 configure.php

 

cd /home/taxing1/groomeez-www/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.

I had the same problems at the beginning,

 

Chmod the files in your ftp program ( i use cuteftp , right click your mouse, click chmod and set permissions)

You should set permissions BEFORE and AFTHER installing your oscommerce.

 

That should solve your problem

hope it helps

what you need to do is download a seperate ftp program. (dreamweaver is not good enough for this one task)

 

go to http://stud.fh-heilbronn.de/~jdebis/leechftp/downloads.html and download leechftp

 

login in to your site at ftp.yourdomainname.com

 

go to catalog>includes>configure.php

 

right-click the file, and go to "set attributes"

 

chmod it to 706.

 

same for admin>includes>configure.php

if your having problems with this PM me and I may be able to do it for you..

Thanks Joker...you are a lifesaver. Your instructions were very good and I was able to install the osCommerce now. God bless you! You are a Gem! If there is anything I can do for you in return (I do graphic and web design) please let me know.

Your friend always,

Trish
