I see there are many versions...which should I choose? Which is the most stable? My idea is to import over 40,000 items for a catalog just for one supplier? I will want to import catalogs for other suppliers I use too. I installed STS v4.5.8 and I want to use a number of images and I also want to have more attributes for product selection too.

Uploaded osC RC1...had to delete my site completely and then setup the site again. All is well now. Thank you everyone for your help.

maybe this will help someone, help me...and a lot of other people. When I look at the source for the File Manager page this is what I see: <td class="dataTableContent" onclick="document.location.href='http://web-design-commerce.com/admin/file_manager.php?goto=/home/httpd/88/web-design-commerce.com/httpdocs//_borders'"><a href="http://web-design-commerce.com/admin/file_manager.php?goto=/home/httpd/88/web-design-commerce.com/httpdocs//_borders"><img src="images/icons/current_folder.gif" border="0" alt="Current Folder" title=" Current Folder "></a> _borders</td> any suggestions? I know others have problems with this..it would be great to get this resolved, especially since this is a clean install. :-"

i see. obviously there is something wrong with the install. You'll see in my code I did try some changes...maybe i'll just forget the File Manager in the Admin Panel. no, i changed the database and other items too

FYI, bkellum, Just uploaded and installed os RC1. But having same issue with config sytem. I created a post and will reinstall STS after clear up issue. Posted here: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?sho...=256532&st= to be continued...

oK. It was suggested that I move to Rs version. Just loaded and have same problem. I installed with the Auto Installer after uploading the Catalog to the Root. All should have been installed automatically...I thought. In the File Admin, I get this: Can anyone tell me what's up?

Thanks for the reply. I am running osCommerce 2.2-MS2, I don't know the difference from rs. But, I looked at the files and What I have now is: catalog/includes/functions/compatibility.php is: and it goes on... and for File: catalog/admin/includes/functions/compatibility.php I have: ...and it continues I AM going to upload the osC (RC1). Don't know what the version I am running is, nor the differences are. thanks, I'll update you on progress. thanks

Have you added "/" infront of some of the paths in catalog/admin/includes/configure.php? OOOHHHHH yeah. Lots of that. Started making notes within the file prior to saving so I could remember what I've done. Then I would update the notes to say what I'd done, didn't work, what it did and leave it in the notes. I went to the original installation for osCommerce 2.2 ms and looked at the code. I cut and pasted from there and here is what I ended up with: // define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/httpd/vhosts/sitename.com/httpdocs/catalog/'); // where the pages are located on the server *** PUT LINE BELOW FROM ORIGINAL CONFIG FOR INSTALL define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs) I don't know why my prior confugure.php file didn't work, but it worked before I installed STS v4.5.8 Finally did you change the access rights as described on the front page of the vanilla site and on page 9 of the documentation? Oh, yeah. I'm learning osCommerce 2.2 ms inside and out. Think I reinstalled it about 4 or 5 times. Primarily due to Contributions that I've attempted to install. Waiting for resolution to STS v4.5.8 and issue regarding unable to set as default templates (posted elsewhere). Guess I'll try Easy Populate today. That's one way to learn...

What kind of problems are you having? I can't get the 'false' to change to 'true' after the module install within the Admin Panel. The STSv4.5.8 User Manual states the official support link to post questions related to STS. I've posted there too...just looking to solve the problem. About to give up and just install an older version of STS. It did work in a prior install. I think it was SEO that messed it up. Don't remember...too many things I've learned in the last 2 weeks or so. :thumbsup: If you have kept up with all of the bug fixes for osCommerce 2.2 or have the latest version of osCommerce (Online Merchant RC1), then you should not have any issues installing STSv4.5.8. I've just installed osCommerce 2.2 ms. Getting everything to work first. Then I'll save my blank templates for my sites. I'm just getting ready to install an older version of STS. Maybe I'll work on Easy Populate so I can wait for some assistance...

Is this patch required for the 2.2 ms 2 osCommerce version? Is this patch required for the STS v 4.5.8? Ready to give up on the STS v 4.5.8 package...anybody else successful?

having the same problem...anyone get the fix on this? when I'm in File Manager of Admin Panel it displays .../httpdocs/catalog/ then when i click on a folder, such as Admin, it displays..../httpdocs/catalog//admin i'm playing with the / catalog / admin / includes / configure.php file but nothing works so far. the public pages are displaying correctly... :blink:

I put up a page with the docs or manual for STS v4.5.8 here: http://web-design-commerce.com/os/osCommerce_References.html There is a pdf file too! :thumbsup: Note: Site under construction

Figured out somewhat...Installed STS first. Made sure that worked, then installed the mods mor MS2. Now...I try to change the default template from test and no changes made. Do I have to change the file attributes? Right now they're 755 for the folders.

Every time I install this I loose my Admin pages. I follow the directions. I loose the configure files. What am I doing wrong? I am afraid to try it again. I want to create pages with meta tags, key words and also have text instead of code in the html displayed in the address bars. :blink:

yes, Jack...I figured it out...over many hours today. :thumbsup: I've gotten that fixed and now I've broken the directory links for images, modules, backups, cache, languages links, and file manager. BUT...my server info is show '( )' now instead of blank... :'( Is there a software or method of see what the errors are as one loads the page? I am new to php. I am learning Dreamweaver. thanks for you help.
