OpenCart Community

Previously installed PDO. Vague and ambiguous documentation.(Not your responsibility, I know...). May not have been totally correct. Could use your insight.

If I select PDO by commenting out "define('DB_DRIVER', 'mysqlidrv');" and add "define('DB_DRIVER', 'pdodriver');" (without quotes) to config.ini files, I get 505 server error on my storefront. If I remove comment marks from mysqldrv line, storefront displays.

Docs for PDO doesn't say how to verify database connection works.

I still can't enable zencart export.

Thanks.

define('DB_DRIVER', 'mpdo');

I will uninstall the files and file modifications and chalk up the $15 to lessons learned.

1. This path is different admin - > SYSYEM - > users - > user groups - > edit - > When I edit the user group, no zencart options are present,

2. - Go to your admin - > extensions - > modules - > Zencart Export. Install it. DO NOT RUN IT YET ! Did this.
When I try to edit iget message "text_error" The Zen-Cart export module is currently disabled!.

I enabled the Zen-Cart settings and still get the above message.

3."- Run the Zencart Export module." I don't know how to do this.

Thanks.

<?php
extension_loaded ('PDO' );
extension_loaded('pdo_mysql');

echo "<pre />\n";
print_r(get_loaded_extensions());
echo "</pre>\n";
