Hi, hope you can help me.

 

I have installed Foxserv 3.0 which installs Apache, PHP, MySQL etc on my own pc.

I need to know the correct paths to use during installation.

 

My servers route is C:\FoxServ\www

 

I have put the oscommerce-2.2ms2 in my www folder and renamed it just oscommerce.

 

When I enter the address http://localhost/oscommerce/catalog/install/index.php into my browser I get the setup screen okay. Click to install

 

2nd page appears with Import Catalog Database: with is checked and Automatic Configuration: which also checked. Click continue.

 

3rd page appears with:

Database Server: I enter: localhost

Username: ....

Password: ....

Database Name: I enter oscommerce

Persistent Connections: left blank

Session Storage: checked database

 

4th page appears with Database Import database successful

5th page The database import was successful! I had to alter where it found the oscommerce.sql file

 

6th page (step4) this is where problems start to happen.

WWW Address: ???????

Webserver Root Directory: ???????

HTTP Cookie Domain: ????????

HTTP Cookie Path: ????????

Enable SSL Connections: I've left this unchecked as it's not needed.

 

Can you tell me exactly from the info I've given what I need to put in the fields above?

Again the oscommerce folder is in: C:\FoxServ\www

And to get the above pages in my browser I put in: http://localhost/oscommerce/catalog/install/index.php

 

Please help!!! :huh: :huh: :huh: :huh:

WWW Address: localhost ... unless you renamed your server.. just a guess though

Webserver Root Directory: C:\FoxServ\www

HTTP Cookie Domain: same as www addy

HTTP Cookie Path: dito

 

 

I haven't used it like you are I am just guessing...

Thanks for the replies.

 

I took the catalog folder out of the oscommerce folder which was one of my problems.

This is what I needed to enter:

WWW Address: http://localhost/catalog

Webserver Root Directory: C:\FoxServ\www\catalog

 

I've managed to enter the details and got to the final screen (http://localhost/catalog/install/install.php?step=7) without loads of errors.

I now get the option to go to Catalog or Administration Tool.

 

Both have errors, if I choose the admin button I get:

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in C:\FoxServ\www\catalog\admin\includes\configure.php on line 19

 

Fatal error: Failed opening required 'DIR_WS_INCLUDESfilenames.php' (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in C:\FoxServ\www\catalog\admin\includes\application_top.php on line 44

 

And if I choose the Catalog buton I get this:

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in C:\FoxServ\www\catalog\includes\configure.php on line 34

 

Fatal error: Failed opening required 'DIR_WS_INCLUDESfilenames.php' (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in C:\FoxServ\www\catalog\includes\application_top.php on line 53

 

It must be something simple as it's telling me what's wrong, shame I don't speak the same language!

Can anyone translate it and tell me what to do?

I have dreamweaver to alter PHP files, I just need to know what to alter and what to alter it too.

 

Help?? :huh: :huh:
