register_globals is disabled in php.ini

[v|sion]

I get the following error when trying to install a custimized version of oscommerce.

FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!

Is there anyway to enable this? I have searched oscommerce.com and they said to change something in the .htaccess file and I tried that but it still did not work. Any help would be appriecated. Thank you.

Sorry. its disabled for security reasons and won't ever be enabled. Please do a search on the forum. There has been other threads regarding this and ways to do a work around.

register_globals soon won't be supported by PHP with the coming release of version 6. Any software run these days shouldn't be using them.
