Hi friends,In my previous post i have explained what is oscommerce and how to install it in localhost. Today I want to discuss how to configure the oscommerce if we are files at subfolder and  run at localhost or site . You need to do some modification in localhost while migrate it to server. I have explained in detail with code.

http://localhost/root-site/shop/

We may get errors at this point, suppose we are run oscommerce shop in a sub folder then we  have to think that how to configure this file to run the site success . Follow below points to configure file to run the shop at your localhost or site.

?>

®Note :

SERVER :

localhost / your site name ( eg: anillabs.com )

YOUR PATH :

where the oscommerce files are stored those path

(eg: if files are at shop folder then give like “/shop”)

CATALOG :

Once run this file at your oscommerce folder :

1
 $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']

If it is a windows + using apache server it will give :

C:/appserv/www/

After this we have to add your oscommerce folder. Suppose your files at “shop” folder. Then

CATALOG = c:/apserv/www/oscommerce/shop/

Once complete these steps , just change the file permission to avoid the warning message at home page of  oscommerce shop site.

Hope that it will be useful .
