OpenCart Community

Hello,

I cannot install the latest 0.7.6 that I downloaded yesterday.
The install script says that Register_globals is ON ( enabled ) but according to my PHP info file it is set to OFF ( which I have double checked ).

What is wrong? Why does it say it is enabled when it is Off?

Please help!

Kind Regards,
Daniel

Did you restart your server after you switched it off?

It is a shared server account, I cannot restart it but the PHP info file says it is off, so does the support.
What can be wrong?

hello!

i have some problems with my installation, i create the php.ini, change the .htacess. and when i go to the installation it appears Register Globals: Off Off Error , and i can´t continue the installation. Warning: OpenCart will not work with register_globals enabled!


thanks

Your the second one with this problem.

Can you msg me FTP details for your server so I can do some testing?

What you mean about ftp details

thanks

Daniel wants to see the code. on your site and a url to the site to see why

ftp -- the method you used to transfer the files from your local machine to your server

ftp host name :
ftp username :
ftp password :

please send to Daniel in a pm

I found out the problem!

You are using PHP4 when you need to be using 5.

This script will not install on anything below 4. I'm not 100% sure why the ini_get is cauing an error for globals, but until you start using PHP5 you can not install the script anyway.

No, I am using PHP 5.2.3. On the installation page all is in green except the Register globals.

Daniel, consider replacing
with
ini_get('register_globals') can return boolean, or an empty string on error. I guess if register_globals is missing in the php.ini it returns empty string, which is casted to boolean true in the first code snippet, without considering that the register_globals default value in PHP5 is false. In the second the number 1 is casted to boolean true if ini_get returns boolean, and to the string '1' if ini_get returns empty string, so it should work in both cases.

EDIT
I just remembered, that it can also return the string value 'On'/'Off', with possible variations 'on'/'off'.
So probably the best is using
,a bit ugly, but at least it should work

I would like if you can help me where i can change the code that you say,  in the index of Install? (install/index.php) or in the main index.php? can you give more details?.

when i use .htaccess the code " php_value register_globals 0 " or "php_flag register_globals off" gives me "error 500" , i put the ".htaccess" in the  "/public_html/comercio/" where is opencart.

i hope an answer and solution

Can you check width phpinfo() what is the values of register_globals?
The code I am speaking about is on line 23 in install/index.php. Probably you don't have alllow override set to all in your php ini, and this gives the 500 server error.

some servers need it to be a php.ini file did you try that?

or you can also try to contact your server prodiver they may be able to help as well
