Admin Errors

[Guest]

I hope someone can help me.

 

When I am trying to go to MODULES and back up in the Adminstration, I get this error

 

"Backup Directory: /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocsbackups/"

 

now httpdocsbackups is not the correct path. The correct path should read /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mysite.com/catalog/backups/

 

I also get the same error for CATALOG ( Error: Catalog images directory does not exist: /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocsimages/) and most of the image files. I am not sure how I managed to get the path wrong, can someone help?

 

How do I replace httpdocs with catalog/ ?

 

Also, when I go to my www.mysite.com/catalog I get the install page again. The installation was complete automatically and I can go to the Administration page. Is this normal?

 

Thank you very much for your help in advance.

where do you begin.

 

first line has no server defined

second line has no server defined

There are no absolute paths defined for FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT

No define for admin path

no define for catalog path

no define for FS_ADMIN

no define for FS_CATALOG

[Guest]

If I define the path in the config rather than leaving it blank I get double path in the url address

 

for example: http://www.mypath.com/catalog/admin/*********.php becomes http://www.mysite.com/catalog/www.mysite.c...dming/*********

 

I must have messed up somewhere whilst installing so I decided to re-install again. Now I am getting this error:

 

Install Step 1: Successfull

Install Step 2 (requests this path : /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/install/oscommerce.sql

): when I click on Continue I get this error message

 

SQL file does not exist: /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/install/oscommerce.sql

 

I uploaded all the files using FTP to our website so I know this file is there.

 

Anything I can do in install/templates/pages to fix this problem?

 

Once again thanks a alot.

 

PS: I am a newbie so please be patient with me :)

there was no need to do a re install all that was required was to set the defines correctly, if you get a double path this is a sign that the define is not set correctly and only needs the define set correctly.

 

When you say that you are re installing did you delete the database, if not then you can skip the part of the install for the database, if the database is intact and the files are uploaded you do not need the install, you need only to configure the two configure.php files

Problem solved.

 

Thanks 241. As always you were right (I did do some search before posting) I just had to make a few changes to configure.php file.
