Hello,
I have read through this entire thread and all the included instructions and the official wordpress instructions without luck.

I am attempting to install the wordpress addon to a fresh, local 1.3.7 Zen Cart installation (using EasyPHP on my computer and my Zen Cart installation works excellent)

Anyways, here's what I have tried and failed with...

1. Uploaded(minus index.php) WordPress 2.2 into the Zen Cart root dir.
2. created seperate database in phpmyadmin
3. edited /ROOT/wp-config-sample.php to reflect database info and changed it to wp-config.php and left it in root folder
3. Uploaded ZC_ROOT into Zen Cart root dir
4. Commented out "return" in wp-include/template-loader.php
5. (includes/extra_configures/wordpress-config.txt to wordpress-config.php) this didn't need to be done.
6. ran wp-admin/install.php in browser - the installation doesn't seem to work at all -

the database I created remains empty and

I keep getting the following page after running the install...

click here for a pic of the error page

here are the details of my wp-config.php files for both the root folder and the includes/extra_configures folder

the root folder...
Code:
<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define('DB_NAME', 'mafiasam_wordpress');    // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', 'mafiasam');     // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', '*******'); // ...and password
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');    // 99% chance you won't need to change this value
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('DB_COLLATE', '');

// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
$table_prefix  = 'wp_';   // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!

// Change this to localize WordPress.  A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-content/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-content/languages and set WPLANG to 'de'
// to enable German language support.
define ('WPLANG', '');

/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
?>
the extra configures folder...
Code:
<?php
//
// wordpress on zencart by http://www.s-page.net/
//
define ('ABSPATH','/');

$woz_install=0;

if (file_exists(ABSPATH.'wp-config.php')) {
	$woz_install=1;
	define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
	$wp_did_header = true;
	
	require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-config.php');

	$i=strlen(DIR_WS_CATALOG);
	$req=substr($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],$i,1);
	if($req=='?'){
		$_GET['main_page']='wordpress';
	}

	if(isset($_GET['feed'])){
		wp();
		gzip_compression();
		//	require_once('./wp-includes/template-loader.php');
		require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/template-loader.php');

		exit();
	}
}

?>
and I guess that should be enough information to hang me, lol.

Does anyone have any advice?

thanks in advance
