 Posted: Sun Feb 09, 2003 10:05 pm Post subject: Guide: How to Install OSSuite |
 |
|
| Code: | OSSuite is an e-commerce application which is gathering momentum and is
pretty powerful... You can find out more about OSSuite by going to the
following address http://www.ossuite.org Keep in mind this guide is
for Windows users... This guide relies on the php-dist file and not
the php-recommended file...
You will need the following to complete this guide...
OSSuite V 101 http://www.ossuite.org
Abyss Web Server: http://www.aprelium.com
php 4.3.0 http://www.php.net
phpMyAdmin http://www.phpmyadmin.net
MySQL http://www.mysql.com
phpedit http://www.phpedit.com
WinZIP (not WinRAR) http://www.winzip.com
Please Note: You do not need phpedit to edit anything... You can use
your favorite editor in replace of... But if all you have is notepad
you'll thank me for it and its free...
I've written a guide on phpMyAdmin and on MySQL... If you do not know
how to use or do not have those applications you should check out those
guides first before you dive into this one... If you've got the above
you're ready to roll...
Unzip the ossuite package and go one level deep...
Drag ossuite into your htdocs directory...
Launch phpMyAdmin and create a database, name it "ossuitedb" without
the quotes... phpMyAdmin should say at the very top "Database
ossuitedb running on localhost" now click on the SQL tab... Click
browse...
Navigate to the ossuite directory and find the ossuitedb.sql file...
Select it and hit open... Now hit Go...
You should see the following...
"Your SQL-query has been executed successfully :
The content of your file has been inserted. (371 Instructions)"
Please Note: Know your user name and password... Your user name worst
comes to worst is "root" without the quotes...
-----------------------------------
Open the following file in your favorite code editor
ossuite/application_config.php...
Make sure the following says localhost (otherwise you know what you're doing)...
15. define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
If you do not have a user id then input "root" without the quotes...
16. define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'userid');
If you have no ID it should look like the following...
16. define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'root');
Input your database password here...
17. define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'password');
If you do not have one erase the password "not the single quotes"...
17. define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');
If you have a password it goes in between the single quotes...
17. define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '!@uhGY*(89');
This is the database you created in phpMyAdmin... If you named it something else that goes here...
18. define('DB_DATABASE', 'ossuitedb');
If you named it something else it'll look like this...
18. define('DB_DATABASE', 'somethingelse');
Please Note: From here to the end of this guide where ever I put the
address 0.0.0.0 you are to replace it with your "global IP address...
Failure to do so will increase your chances of errors... 127.0.0.1 and
192.168.0.0 all the way up to 255.255.255.255 are not global IP
addresses... They are local network addresses and are only accessible
on your machine and on your local network... Go here to find out your
IP address http://www.aprelium.com/ip/ and hope it isn't a local one
:)
If OSSuite is directly after htdocs... htdocs/ossuite
24. define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.my.com');
Change from above line to below line...
24. define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://0.0.0.0/ossuite');
If OSSuite is directly after htdocs, catalog follows it... htdocs/ossuite/catalog...
25. define('HTTP_SERVER_CATALOG', 'http://www.my.com');
Change from above line to below line...
25. define('HTTP_SERVER_CATALOG', 'http://0.0.0.0/ossuite/oscatalog');
Change the following value "/images/" to "../images" without the double quotes...
31. define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', '/images/');
Change from above line to below line...
31. define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', '../images/');
For the below line we'll simply add an "s" after "http" without the
quotes and point to the ossuite directory...
46. define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://www.my.com');
Change from above line to below line...
46. define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://0.0.0.0/ossuite');
That's it for the application_config.php document... Save and close
it...
-----------------------------------
Open up the following document htdocs/ossuite/languages/osadmin/english.php and edit line 12
12. setlocale('LC_TIME', 'en_US.ISO_8859-1');
Add a double forward slash and a space to it "// " without the quotes... It should now look like this...
12. // setlocale('LC_TIME', 'en_US.ISO_8859-1');
Please Note: We have to do this just one more time but on another
document located at the following:
htdocs/ossuite/languages/oscatalog/english.php
Open up the following document htdocs/ossuite/languages/oscatalog/english.php and edit line 12
12. setlocale('LC_TIME', 'en_US.ISO_8859-1');
Add a double forward slash and a space to it "// " without the quotes... It should now look like this...
12. // setlocale('LC_TIME', 'en_US.ISO_8859-1');
That's it for the two documents... Save and close them and launch the
Abyss console...
-----------------------------------
Server Configuration > Advanced > Aliases > Add
Virtual Path: /ossuite/oscatalog/images
Realm: htdocs/ossuite/images
OK > Add
Virtual Path: /ossuite/osadmin/images
Realm: htdocs/ossuite/images
OK > Add
Virtual Path: /ossuite/oserp/images
Realm: htdocs/ossuite/images
OK > OK > Server Parameters > Index Files > Add
Enter "default.php" without the quotes...
OK > Restart
-----------------------------------
We'll by now if you've done everything correct you should be able to
access your new applications
http://0.0.0.0/ossuite/osadmin (Administration)
http://0.0.0.0/ossuite/oscatalog (Storefront)
http://0.0.0.0/ossuite/oserp (sales Management)
Congratulations :) |

I tried checking your page out but couldnt get to it... I am off to check application_config on my end... Hopefully I can come up with an answer :)
PS. Incase you skipped it... OSSuite is not really compatible with the php-recommended as it is with the php-dist file...
PSS. Though I show how to set ip up, you'll need up to 11 plugins to get to work securely on your server...

OK, I looked at line 26 and this is what I see...
" define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT . '/'); // where your pages are located on the server.. needed to delete images.. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)"
As far as I am concerned this line should work out the box with no manipulation of any kind... Did you happen to edit it by any chance?
I wrote this guide on XP home so it should work better on XP than on 95 or 98 and so on...
If you did touch it make the value a slash again like above...
I hope this helps :)
