physical path problem on install

[liamtee]

I am getting a blank page for my store and my admin. I ran the debugger and all problems point to the physical path which zen cart automatically picked for me. It seems to copy the path from these lines from includes/configure.php "define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/customers/scrolldesign.co.uk/scrolldesign.co.uk/httpd.www/zencart/'); "

Can anyone please tell me what these lines should read so that I can change them and re-install or does anyone know a way to fix my problem without reinstalling?

Here is what my includes/configure.php file reads:-

Thankyou for any help you can offer!

Sorry, but there's no way *we* can guess the physical path details of how your hosting company chose to set up their server. You'll need to ask *them* what the correct paths should be.

Or you could do this:

1. Create a new text document on your desktop and name it cwd.php. Ignore the warning about changing the file type.

2. Put this code into it:

<?php
$p = getcwd();
echo $p;
?>

3. Upload it to the root of your domain via FTP.

4. Go to http://www.yourdomain.com/cwd.php via your browser and printed on the screen will be the full pathway to the root of your domain.

5. Write down that pathway and then delete the cwd.php file from your hosting.
