Having a little trobule installing OS Commerce

[Wicked_one]

I used Fantastico to in stall it but some how still messed up. when I try to go veiw it I get this error message

Server Requirement Error: register_globals is disabled in your PHP configuration. This can be enabled in your php.ini configuration file or in the .htaccess file in your catalog directory.

:dunno:I can't find php.ini configuration file or in the .htaccess file in your catalog directory.
Can anyone help me out here, I pullin my hair out try to fix this.

Its outdated. Register globals is now depreciated. You can try to patch the code by prepending

extract($_REQUEST);

to every php script that is web accessible, otherwise you'd be better off looking for a new script.

Any suggestion?

Hi .... the best way I've seen to get OS Commerce 100% functioning without register_globals is to follow the modifications at the following link http://www.magic-seo-url.com/oscommerce/tips/running-oscommerce-with-register-globals-off.html

I was directed here by a member of the OS Commerce development team. I have done the mod myself and it works just fine.

Hope this helps you.
