Re: installing zencart in the hosting company server

Always, Always do a manual install versus some host provided install script
Grab a distribution here

http://sourceforge.net/projects/zencart/files/CURRENT_%20Zen%20Cart%201.3.x%20Series/Zen%20Cart%20v1.3.9%20-%20Full%20Release/zen-cart-v1.3.9h-full-fileset-10262010.zip/download

FTP the file to the server
Create a DB and run the install
