How to manually install OsCommerce?

If you do not want to use the experience of our Support Team or the comprehensive Softaculous auto-installer tutorial, you can still manually apply this script on your account with us. Let’s see how:

1. Upload the script on your account via FTP or the cPanel File Manager

2. Create new database through the cPanel MySQL Wizard 

3. Go to yourdomain.com/folder (you replace “Folder” with the folder name, which you installed the files in)

4. Fill in the information as created by you:

-Database Server

-User

-Pass

cPanel Hosting from WebhostFace

-Database Name

5. Fill in the Web Server information (most times its already applied automatically)

6. Enter Shop Info and Administration Details

7. Finish!

After completing those actions, there are a couple more things you need to do:

– make sure to rename or delete the /install folder, that was created

– change  /includes/configure.php and /admin/includes/configure.php file permissions to 444 through the File Manager

This will complete the manual installation of osCommerce – Good Job!
