Besides, since my situation was that I migrated from servers (one that had PHP4 running to a new one, with PHP5) I found a couple of extra problems. Just in case it's useful for someone: - Admin didn't show up due to an error in the file upload.php: [url=http://kb.siteground.com/article/oscommerce_fatal_error_cannot_reassign_this.html]http://kb.siteground.com/article/oscommerce_fatal_error_cannot_reassign_this.html[/url] - Admin showed a weird message regarding the images directory: [url=http://forums.oscommerce.com/lofiversion/index.php?t172622.html]http://forums.oscommerce.com/lofiversion/index.php?t172622.html[/url] Thanks, this helped me a lot!

Copy this and put it in a file called php5fix.php in your *****catalog/includes******* directory: Now edit catalog/admin/includes/application_top.php and add this just below the comments at the top: // PHP5 fix *****require_once("../includes/php5fix.php");***** Edit catalog/includes/application_top.php and add this just below the comments at the top: // PHP5 fix *****require_once("includes/php5fix.php");***** I may be wrong, but it seems like the paths are wrong here, may i suggest just to put php5fix.php in the same directory as the files mentioned below and use —-
require_once("php5fix.php"); only.

Copy this and put it in a file called php5fix.php in your *****catalog/includes******* directory:

Now edit catalog/admin/includes/application_top.php and add this just below the comments at the top:

// PHP5 fix

My fingers are getting a little tired from making eCommerce sites from scratch. :P I'm getting closer to finishing a complete scheduling and eCommerce framework in PHP, JS and Flash so I can stamp these sites out like cookies, but I've got a little ways to go yet :).

I'm evaluating it these days. It's basically a spin-off of osCommerce, seems to have good templates, has a number of pre-installed mods and is compatible with many original osC templates.
