New Install but get System Setup Required
I just loaded v1.5.1 and once I finally got thru all of the install entries I was so excited and then I got this page on both options (store and admin) This is a new install, not an upgrade or reinstall, Please help:
Zen CartŪ
Hello. Thank you for loading Zen CartŪ.
You are seeing this page for one or more reasons:
This is your first time using Zen CartŪ and you haven't yet completed the normal Installation procedure.
If this is the case for you, you will need to upload the "zc_install" folder using your FTP program, and then run zc_install/index.php via your browser (or reload this page to see a link to it).
Your /includes/configure.php and/or /admin/includes/configure.php file contains invalid path information and/or invalid database-connection information.
If you recently edited your configure.php files for any reason, or maybe moved your site to a different folder or different server, then you'll need to review and update all your settings to the correct values for your server.
Additionally, if the permissions have been changed on your configure.php files, then maybe they're too low for the files to be read.
Or the configure.php files could be missing altogether.
Or your hosting company has recently changed the server's PHP configuration (or upgraded its version) then they may have broken things as well.
See the Online FAQ and Tutorials area on the Zen CartŪ website for assistance.
Additional *IMPORTANT* Details: includes/configure.php file contents invalid. ie: DIR_FS_CATALOG not valid or not set
To begin installation ...
The Installation Documentation can be read by clicking here: Documentation
You will need to upload the "zc_install" folder using your FTP program, and then run zc_install/index.php via your browser (or reload this page to see a link to it).
The Online FAQ and Tutorials area on the Zen CartŪ website will also be of value if you run into difficulties.
Re: New Install but get System Setup Required
1.5.1 is really old. Please download the latest release (1.5.8) and start there.

Re: New Install but get System Setup Required
The newest would not install at all, that's why I went to an older version. Any other ideas? I know that the older versions work because other people on this server use ZenCart. This is the server info:
Platform Type Windows Server 2016 Standard
MySQL Version 5.6.32
Perl Version 5.8.8
PHP Version PHP 5
MySQL:
Web server
Apache
PHP version: 7.0.33-0ubuntu0.16.04.14
Thank you for any help.
Re: New Install but get System Setup Required
PHP 5 is *really* old. You need to get better more up to date hosting.

You have to get up to date hosting. See the Services page:

Re: New Install but get System Setup Required
Did you try one of the versions that are expected to work in a php 7.0.x environment? I mean there has been a lot of discussion and picking at various portions of the server configure post, but one piece of info also posted was that something in the system is using php 7.0.33.
May I suggest at least trying zen Cart 1.5.7d preliminarily.
Even though you are operating on a windows system, at least might get through the install and can stay to play around.

Thank you, Do I need to delete this version first or update?

I just looked and that was the first one I tried and it wouldn't install.
