FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!

 

Is it in oscommerce or in my web admin folder

As the error is telling you haven't got register_globals turned on, you need to find php.ini on your system and turn it on. After that your webserver needs to restart to accept the changes

You do have php installed, i hope? And it might be a good thing to tell if you are running linux, windows or mac.

Hi its windows I upload oscommerce then when i got to my catalog page this error comes up.

 

I've installed oscommerce before on 1 and 1 hosting and it was so easy, is there away to copy my other oscommerce web site and upload to my new space?

You do have a backup of oscommerce installation before uploading, than it should be easy with just ftp.

 

But you are not telling if you are having php installed locally on your own computer. If you are trying to do that without having the required programs installed than of course it will give errors.

 

The php website tells this about your pho.ini file:

 

The next step is to set up a valid configuration file for PHP, php.ini. There are two ini files distributed in the zip file, php.ini-dist and php.ini-recommended. We advise you to use php.ini-recommended, because we optimized the default settings in this file for performance, and security. Read this well documented file carefully and in addition study the ini settings and set every element manually yourself. If you would like to achieve the best security, then this is the way for you, although PHP works fine with these default ini files. Copy your chosen ini-file to a directory where PHP is able to find and rename it to php.ini. By default PHP searches php.ini in your Windows directory:

 

On Windows 9x/ME/XP copy your chosen ini file to your %WINDIR%, which is typically C:\Windows.

On Windows NT/2000 copy your chosen ini file to your %WINDIR% or %SYSTEMROOT%, which is typically C:\WINNT or C:\WINNT40 for NT/2000 servers.
