I did contact my host provider and they were not too helpful. I was told that they do not support OS commerce on their servers. However If I switch to zencart or cubecart there is support nice isn't it lol. I chose OS cause it does everything I need. Main reason is it can do separate Canadian taxes properly. can add city delivery zones too, Lots of support here in the community and lots of addons too. Zen can not show Canadian taxes properly ( I got it do it by porting code from os into zen format and it worked great ) Porting code over is not easy tho. So now I am back to square 1 same problem, and NO support from my host provider. Chris.

I think I only have one instance of phpmyadmin. When I go through the control panel it brings me to seawayhobby.com/phpmyadmin There is no other link into it. I think what they have in the panel is just a link bringing me to the phpmyadmin located in seawayhobby.com root wich I have no access too. Looks like there is no way around this one. but I thank you for trying. Chris.

ok I think phpmyadmin is needed I use it quite often, Anyway what files would you need to see? Chris.

Its hidden it does not show up under ftp or file manager. and under admin->tools->sitemap it does not show either. is there away to force exclusion of this directory?

I have been doing some searching around and in my control panel when I mouse over "Administer your MYSQL account"... I see this http link....//seawayhobby.com/phpmyadmin Could this directory be excluded? what would I need to do? Chris.

I must be one of the unlucky ones. I can use PHPadmin but its not in any of my directories, Its web based only through my host. I searched in both FTP and in my hosts web based File manager No directory for phpadmin, it must be in the server root that I do not have access to from my hosting provider. in admin>tools->sitemap yes there is the option to exclude files but only with in the main directory (/var/www/domains/seawayhobby.com/docs/) there is no PHPadmin directory listed inside the docs directory only the store directories and files. So now the question is how does one exclude a directory/files you can not see? Chris.

In admin I dont see that directory to exclude is there another way to exlcude the offending direcory?........What do you mean delete that one? I do have access to phpmyadmin. Thanks again Chris.

Can some one take a look at my sitemap everything is working on it, but on the 1st page it has an error at the top. All other pages are ok. http://seawayhobby.com/dynamic_sitemap.php any ideas? Thanks Chris.

Never mind figured it out, was permission problems on all the xml files in catalog directory Chris.

I have installed this on my local host and it works great no errors. so I did the exact same thing and installed in my live server. I now have this error when I try to create the xml file Warning: fopen(/var/www/domains/seawayhobby.com/docs/sitemaps.xml) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/domains/seawayhobby.com/docs/admin/create_xml_sitemaps.php on line 102 Unable to create site map index file! Is this my host causing this or am I missing something such as a permission set wrong somewhere? here is the line in create_xml.php where it says the error is..$fh = fopen($sm, 'w') or die(ERROR_INDEX_FILE); Thanks Chris.

I see so many threads on Paypal IPN modules different versions available. I wouldn't know which one to begin to use. What about the original Paypal IPN module that comes with osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2 RC1? is ok to use this one? or should I be using a different IPN module from the contributions area? I know I am going to get various opinions on this but which paypal ipn module should one be using? Thanks Chris.
