The installation routine will tell you what permissions need to be changed to install.

    I've already changed it when I uploaded the files onto the server, and the appropriate permission was already done via Control Panel (windows hosting so no 777 commands )

    dist-configure.php (includes) to configure.php
    dist-configure.php (admin/includes) to configure.php

    The problem also lies whereby I can access anything if I just use the URL such as www.antoniopc.com or antoniopc.com/antonipc/

    I need specifically to point to a file ex. www.antoniopc.com/antonipc/dbbc.html only then, i can get something...if not, i there server will come out with a message

    "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied"

    or when I want to access the installation directory, (http://www.antoniopc.com/antonipc/zc_install/)

    "404 - File or directory not found."

    Code:
    // * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
    // these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', 'httpdocs/antonipc/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', 'httpsdocs/antonipc/');
    I think it shoud be:

    Code:
    // * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
    // these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/antonipc/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/antonipc/');
    ie: remove httpdocs

    Same type of problem with your:

    admin/includes/configure.php

    ... should be:

    PHP Code:
    // NOTE: be sure to leave the trailing '/' at the end of these lines if you make changes!

    // * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (www.antoniopc.com/httpdocs/antonipc/)
    // these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
    define('DIR_WS_ADMIN''/antonipc/admin/');
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG''/antonipc/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN''/antonipc/admin/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG''/antonipc/');

    I'm puzzled... How did your configure.php files get completed if you have not run the install yet?

    I did it manually...fill in the necessary details then upload to the appropriate folder...

    Shouldn't I?

    The configure.php files are built automatically during the initial install.

    (Assuming that you have created a database and you know its name, username and password) all you need do is:

    1. Upload all ZC folders and files to your server (DOCS folder not necessary to upload)
    2. Change permissions of certain files and folders (see DOCS FOLDER in the ZC software for install instructions).
    3. Rename dist-configure.php files to configure.php files and make sure they are writeable.

    run the install...

    ... and follow on-screen instructions.

    FTP the two dist_configure.php files to their appropriate folders.

    DELETE the configure.php files you manually edited.

    RE-NAME dist_configure.php files to configure.php

    And run the install.

    You may have some success...

    Ok...i tried it on another live server which I also have access and the installation page just pop out with no problem whatsover...

    Can it be a server probelm????

    To run the installation simply enter the url which is www.antoniopc.com , but, the server kind of not knowing to catch a "*.php" file....a normal html is ok, but .php sadly, not working...

    What should I tell my webhost provider??
