System Setup Error

[lamont]

I'm installing zen-cart for first time on a test account. I get to the 'System Setup' section, ck the inputs and click on 'Save System Settings'. A new page opens with '

NOT FOUND - The requested URL /catalog&virtual_https_path =https://mydomain.com/catalog&virtual_https_server=https://mydomain.com&enable_ssl=false& enable_ssl_admin=false&sql_cache=/mnt/Target01/327xxx/www.mydomain.com/web/content/catalog/ cache&is_upgrade= was not found on this server.'

Running PHP5.1.4-1.dotdeb.3; MySQL 4.1.15
on Mosso Linux server.

Any suggestions?

Could you post the file:
/admin/includes/configure.php

from the server and without your username and password?

It looks like something is not configured correctly ...

[lamont]

This is admin/includes/configure.php chmod is 777 on server.

Looks like nothing has been written to it. Converted to .txt for upload

I would start with trying to reload the files ...

It appears that some of the files may not have loaded to your server properly ...

Let's see if uploading the files helps on this ...

[lamont]

A new download from a different mirror, unzip, upload to server, mods as required produces the same results, same error message. I do have a copy of my server phpinfo if you think that would help in your debugging.

Either the server is not set up correctly, or else it's one of those servers which uses two sets of pathways and zen is finding and using one set of pathways when the server requires another. For instance a server running on RedHat Enterprise Linux can use either of these two sets of pathways, but only one is correct for zen cart:
/var/www/html/ (correct)
/home/virtual/yourdomain.com/var/www/html/ (incorrect)

Try this:

1. Create a text file and rename it to cwd.php, and put this code in it:

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

Upload the file to the folder or level where zen cart is being installed and then go to it in your browser. For example http://www.yourdomain.com/cwd.php

This will print out the file pathway on the screen Make a note of it and then delete that file from the server.

Start the Zen Cart install and see if the pathway you have matches what Zen Cart shows you. Use the pathway given by cwd.php if there's a difference.

Thanks for your response, Vger. Running cwd.php gets the same path that the install screen is producing for actual path. I'm still at the same place as before.

Set the site up manually. Run the zen cart database using phpMyAdmin and edit the two configure.php files manually. See if that works.

Vger,
Success for now. I haven't tried everything, but I do have the admin page. I still have to work with the urls in the config files. I'm not able to get to all the pages just yet. I'll keep trying.

Thanks

Good news, and you do already have the DIR_FS pathways to work with, and the DIR_WS entries are easy.
