should be in your main folder. open the upload folder that you unzipped and it should be there. if you are looking for it on your server it should be in the root directory.

Chances are that because of the . file name prefix (.htaccess.txt), the file is not visible in your FTP application. If you have SSH access to your server, run "ls -al" in or for your web directory and you might see it. However, for your convenience I've included the contents of the entire .htaccess.txt file in the Code tag below. If I was you, I'd create a htaccess.txt file on your computer, paste the contents below and save it. Then, upload the file to the root of your OpenCart directory and then rename it to .htaccess. Hope this helps.
Code: Select all
# 1.To use URL Alias you need to be running apache with mod_rewrite enabled.
# 2. In your opencart directory rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess.
# For any support issues please visit: http://www.opencart.com

# If your opencart installation does not run on the main web folder make sure you folder it does run in ie. / becomes /shop/
RewriteBase /

### Additional Settings that may need to be enabled for some servers
### Uncomment the commands by removing the # sign in front of it.
### If you get an "Internal Server Error 500" after enabling any of the following settings, restore the # as this means your host doesn't allow that.
# 1. If your cart only allows you to add one item at a time, it is possible register_globals is on. This may work to disable it:
# php_flag register_globals off
# 2. If your cart has magic quotes enabled, This may work to disable it:
# php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off
# 3. Set max upload file size. Most hosts will limit this and not allow it to be overridden but you can try
# php_value upload_max_filesize 999M
# 4. set max post size. uncomment this line if you have a lot of product options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields
# php_value post_max_size 999M
# 5. set max time script can take. uncomment this line if you have a lot of product options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields
# php_value max_execution_time 200
# 6. set max time for input to be recieved. Uncomment this line if you have a lot of product options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields
# php_value max_input_time 200
If you use Filezilla, this should help to locate the hidden files:

Thanks all
I could not locate it on my computer harddrive in the template file for upload- even though I show hidden files. Very frustrating and then I did what CookonStrike said and Bob's your Uncle! Success! I found it through filezilla after I forced show hidden files. Funny thing is I had htaccess by default with the template.
