Michael_A Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I installed the oscommerce package a couple of times for several reasons. For one, I found the multi-store package after the install and wanted to set everything up differently. In any case, on the last install, I extracted oscommerce to a directory named multi-store off the root dir of Apache2. Then I overlaid the catalog and admin directories with the multi-store catalog and admin directories. The I created the database. Then I manually created the tables using oscommerce.sql and then the multi-store tables using update.sql. Then I executed the install script. I unchecked installing the tables as I did that manually. I finished the rest of the install successfully. Then, as the install.txt instructions say, I went to catalog, categories, products. Then instructions state that I can select what products go in which stores by clicking on the store button. There is no store button there. Any ideas where I went wrong and what I should do? Thanks.

Mike <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I dont think that the button shows up until you have stores defined... Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_A Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 I dont think that the button shows up until you have stores defined... Mike <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My post said that the instructions said it would be there. From the install.txt file: By default, after you run the update.sql, there is one store created from the default "configuration" table. After updating the new code & runing that query you should have a store with 0 products & categories enabled for it. Then you can go to Catalog->Categories/Products and check which stores you want that category or product to be listed under by selecting the "STORE" button. I have no Store button. What did I miss?

Michael_A Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 Problem solved. VERY CAREFULLY followed the instrctions at http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?sho...ndpost&p=475498 and it worked. There is not a button. There is a word in a header and a dropdown listing of stores. In any case, it works. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
