CS-Cart Installation
Instructions---------------------------------
The instructions below are about CS-Cart installation on a
hostingserver accessible on the Internet. If you would like to make
a CS-Cartinstallation on your local computer (desktop), please
download the"How to install CS-Cart on a local computer" manual on
the "File area"
page in our Customer Help Desk
(https://helpdesk.cs-cart.com).
Briefly, CS-Cart installation includes the following steps:
1) extracting the software distribution package and uploading
the filesto a web server;
2) setting file access permissions;
3) creating a MySQL database;
4) running the Installation Wizard.
1. The first step is to uncompress the CS-Cart distribution
package (the"cscart_vX.X.X.tgz" or "cscart_vX.X.X.zip" file)
anywhere under yourweb server directory.
On a WINDOWS-based server, you can do it with any TAR- or
ZIP-compatiblearchive software.
On a UNIX-based server with terminal access to it, please run
one ofthe following commands depending on the package file
format:
tar -xzvf cscart_vX.X.X.tgz
or unzip cscart_vX.X.X.zip
NOTE: Most versions of control panel have the so-called file
managerthat allows to unpack a TGZ or ZIP archive by one click.
If none of the ways above works for you, you should extract
thedistribution package on your local computer using any TAR-or
ZIP-compatible archive software, e.g. WinRAR (you can download it
here:http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar370.exe) and upload all the
files to yourserver via FTP.
2. The next step is setting file access permissions. On a
UNIX-based server with terminal access to it, run the
followingcommands one by one:
chmod 666 config.local.php chmod -R 777 images chmod -R 777
skins chmod -R 777 var
If you do not have terminal access to your server, you can
change file access permissions using an FTP client. Most of them
have the "Change
permissions" or "Change mode" functions. With the help of the
functionyou are to set the permissions for the 'config.local.php'
file and the
directories above. The 'chmod 666 config.local.php' command
means thatyou must set 666 permissions (in other words, read and
write permissionsfor the file user, group and other) for the
'config.local.php' file. Other

commands (e.g. 'chmod -R 777 images') mean that you must set 777
(read, write and execute) permissions for the directory, its
subdirectories and
all the files under these directories. Please refer to your FTP
clientdocumentation for more detailed instructions on setting file
permissions.
In order to set the same file access permissions on a
WINDOWS-basedserver, you may need to give full permissions for the
files and
directories to the user with the IUSER_ComputerName account.
3. Then create a MySQL database (you may need to create a MySQL
user beforethat) in your website control panel. Remember the MySQL
name, host, username and password to use them at the next
installation step.
4. The last major installation step is running the CS-Cart
InstallationWizard. In your browser go to the following URL:
http://www.my_site.com/install/(replace "my_site.com" with your
site's URL).
Now you should follow the Installation Wizard. The installation
progressis shown in the 'Installation steps' box on the left.
