Hi,

I've installed open cart on my PC. Now I need to install some plugins or extensions using the url via a browser i.e. localhost/site/something. Unfortunately, when I am trying to access and click on the install button, it is giving me the following error :

Code: Select all

This installer needs to modify some OpenCart files. Please check write access for following files of your opencart store :
-/admin/controller/module
-/admin/view/template/module
How can I access those files with admin privileges via web browser? Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

you'll need to install a local server, to be able to use OC on your PC!

I think the best for the local server is the XAMPP. Apache + MariaDB + PHP + Perl

I've already installed LAMP on my Ubuntu machine. And OpenCart 2.2.0.0 is installed successfully. Now my problem with a specific extension. I need write access to the root folder :(
