physcial path is incorrect - cant get past this..!!!

hi, i am stuck on the physical path... the auto generated path is...

/NAS35ENT/domains/t/thegadgetexpert.com/user/htdocs

it comes up invalid path

how do you go about finding this out??

also i had these errors on the installation check

CURL compiled into PHP - notify server administrator more info...
CURL not compiled into PHP - notify server administrator more info...
CURL not compiled into PHP - notify server administrator more info...
CURL not compiled into PHP - notify server administrator more info...

Re: physcial path is incorrect - cant get past this..!!!

Just had the same problem yesterday, installing on windows XP.

Find your file 'configure.php' in your zencart main folder, find the line that reads
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/NAS35ENT/domains/t/thegadgetexpert.com/user/htdocs');

and put a second slash at the start of the pathname, like:
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '//NAS35ENT/domains/t/thegadgetexpert.com/user/htdocs');

(the PHP will translate the '/' to '' but doesn't understand network shares it seems).

You will also have to make the same change to another copy of the configure.php in the Admin/include folder.

I am guessing that sharename "NAS35ENT" isn't a local folder on your computer.

Not sure if this helps your "CURL" problem, but in your php.inf file, make sure the line "extension=php_curl.dll" does not have a semi-colon at the beginning, like ";extension=php_curl.dll". Just edit that file with any text editor and remove the semicolon if present.
