Oscommerce Easy Populate SQL

1-10-05, 06:15 AM

I have been using Oscommerce Easy Populate contribution to update my website (insert to database). I didnt have any problems using the function until recently. I saw that there is a php file upload upgarde on Powweb, and I followed the instruction by creating a php.ini file, edited the temp directory og the php.ini, and uploaded the file to htdocs. I still cannot use the easy populate function afterall.
Please help

Have you tried the OSCommerce Forum. They might have a better idea there - or there might be someone who's experienced the same thing as you there. Steve1 is usually very quick to respond.

I haven't used EasyPopulate, but I could imagine that it is affected by the temp dir issue. What does the line in php.ini for upload_tmp_dir look like now?

upload_tmp_dir = /www/b/usrname/shop/catalog/temp

May I suggest instead:

upload_tmp_dir = /www/b/username

(where "username" is your real package username and "b" the real first initial

Hi,

I'm confused. there was a post that a custom php.ini file was no longer yesterday but today my easypopulated doesn't work and it was working just yesterday.

Do I need to install a custom php.ini file or not? Like i said, reading posts it looks like the moderators say this is no longer necessary but apparently something is buggered up

Thanks in advance.
