:huh:

 

can someone please help.....

 

im a newbie doing a install... i'm almost done in think... but after the database fields are shown the second time on install, i get this message:

------------------------

New Installation

 

osCommerce Configuration

 

The following error has occurred:

 

 

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

 

Please perform the following actions:

cd /home2/interna/public_html/catalog/includes/

touch configure.php

chmod 706 configure.php

cd /home2/interna/public_html/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 am running in windows so i tried to rename the two exsisting files to configure1.php

 

then after continue, even more error message..

 

what should i do? any help is much much appreciated!

I'm getting the same error on my installation as 'ihdvd' is getting.

 

How do you set the chmod to 777?

 

Thanks!

Use your ftp program to do it or...

 

read this thread http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=87339&st=0& and find BluePony's post. But change his code to:

 

<?php 
chmod('includes/configure.php', 0777);
chmod('admin/includes/configure.php', 0777);
?>

Local: Mac OS X 10.5.8 - Apache 2.2/php 5.3.0/MySQL 5.4.10 • Web Servers: Linux

Tools: BBEdit, Coda, Versions (Subversion), Sequel Pro (db management)
