Hello I have a problem installing vqmod. It should be very simple following the instructions on github I have placed the vqmod directory in my root. However when I navigate to mysite.com/vqmod/install I get a 403 forbidden error.

After searching my error I found a number of solutions none of which work for me.

I have set the file permissions to both 777 and 755

I have altered the htaccess file inside vqmod directory to allow

I also removed Options -Indexes from htaccess in my root directory to allow seeing the vqmod directory but still mysite.com/vqmod/install still says 403 forbidden

I also tried manual install but the files in github install manual don't match my own.

My host is rackspace running linux / apache / php5.4

opencart v2.0.1.1

vqmod 2.5.2

Why does nothing work. vqmod supposed to be drag and drop install. Shouldn't be anywhere near this diffcult. Am I missing something?

Can someone at least tell me why the vqmod manual install instruction code looks nothing like mine.

This is what the manual shows for the index.php file

Code: Select all

  // Startup
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'startup.php');

  // Application Classes
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/customer.php');
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/currency.php');
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/tax.php');
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/weight.php');
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/length.php');
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/cart.php');
  require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/affiliate.php');

This is what my index.php file looks like

Code: Select all

// Startup
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'startup.php');

// Registry
$registry = new Registry();

// Loader
$loader = new Loader($registry);
$registry->set('load', $loader);

Everything under startup is completely different.

I figured out what was going wrong for me. The install instructions are horrifically bad. You cannot just download any install folder with opencart in the title like the installation instructions say. Try this page https://github.com/vqmod/vqmod/releases. Try the link titled vqmod-2.5.1-opencart.zip. Whoever wrote the install instructions failed pretty hard. I also need to manually add the vqcache folder so that it could be populated by the cache files. Hope this helps cuz you wont receive any help from the github page or the opencart support forums.
