something wrong with my installtion !!

I don't recommend mass-uploading using Dreamweaver. It's great for 1 or 2 files at a time, but not mass folders.
FileZilla handles multiple folders very well, and reliably detects failed uploads and lets you retry those as needed, etc.

OK, I uploaded the ZC 1.3.8 with filezilla and while I am installing the ZC I came to a page with this note :

X PHP session.use _trans_sid = ON Click here for more info
and when I clicked on "click here...." I came to this :

The session.use_trans_sid setting in your server's PHP.INI file is set to ON.

This could potentially cause you some problems with session handling and possibly even security concerns.

You can work around this by setting an .htaccess parameter such as described here: http://www.olate.com/articles/252, or you could disable it in your PHP.INI if you have access to it.

For more information on the security risks it imposes, see: http://shh.thathost.com/secadv/2003-05-11-php.txt.

(You may have to create the .htaccess file if you don't already have one.)

what should I do now, I think I'm following the same path to the previous problem with the .htaccess , as I had quick look to the uploaded folders I discovered that none of the .htaccess has been uploaded to the server !! please help.

In FileZilla, you have a menu across the top: File - Edit - Transfer - Server - Help ...
Click on "Server", then make sure you have a checkmark next to "View Hidden Files". If you don't, click on it to check it.
Now reconnect to your site, and you should see the .htaccess files.

I did what you asked me to do, but I can see the .htaccess files only on my local drive!

Who is your hosting company?
Do they let you set up a custom php.ini file for your account?

[alhakeem2001]

My hosting company is Dreamhost , and they have the ZC 1.3.7 as one-click software installation! but for some reason they don't have the latest version !!

[alhakeem2001]

I attached a print screen of the page were the problem is!

Yes ... but do Dreamhost allow you to set up a custom php.ini file? Their support desk will be able to answer that question for you.

I already sent them the link to this discussion.
