many thanks for your help.

hi Ian - just to confirm - are you saying all i have to do is just replace the admin.php from v 4.8.0 to my v 4.3.0 - no other files? many thanks cheryl

hi - due to the approaching december deadline i'm about to attempt a v4 to v6 upgrade with some trepidation an extract of the upgrade instructions say:- Take a FULL backup of your existing files and database and check that it is complete. This is critical in case the upgrade process fails or there is an error. Please delete all existing folders and files excluding; images/ includes/global.inc.php Download and extract the latest version of CubeCart v6 and upload the entire contents of this folder over the remaining files replacing all existing ones.edit: please excuse my original question. what is confusing me is instruction 3) above ie if images/ & includes/global.inc.php are the only two remaining will they not be over written? many thanks

thanks again - finally got the issue resolved - will post later if you think its worthwhile? - about to go out.

thanks for your reply - what i've now done is install wampserver 2.0c (php 5.2.6) which means i can use "zend optimizer" . the problem is although i installed it years ago on my wamp i now can't remember how & can find no instructions on how to. i've already installed ioncube but its still displaying the "zend optimizer required" page when i try my shops homepage. if anyone knows how to install the "zend optimizer" i would be greatly obliged.

apologies for my misunderstanding.

thanks for you reply but why the inclusion of the above? - rather petty. others may find the following useful - i apologize for any info already stated in my original post. i purchased a licenced version of CC 4.3.0 (sorry, Cubecart 4.3.0) a few years ago & had it working with WS (wampserver) from that time also. however WS stopped working a few weeks ago. i tried various fixes but eventually installed WS 2.0j & also my CC to the point where it required zend extensions. my original version of WS used "zend optimizer" however the new version with php 5.3.3 (according to various sources) will load neither zend optimizer" or zend guard loader" successfully since both are NTS (non thread safety) & "thread safety" is enabled in php & apparently cannot be disabiled. if anyone can add further i would be obliged. .

hi - this is a new post relating to my attempts to install my cc 4.3.0 on wamp. i tried to install it on WS2.1 but was pestered with errors. i decided to install an older version of WS (wampserver 2.0/2.0i)) & "successfully" completed the install steps. however when i tried to access the shops homepage i received instead a page referring to a zend requirement. now the problem is that WS 2.0 has php 5.3.3 & will not (i believe) work with zend optimizer only zend guard. therefore can anyone please tell me if my CC 4.3.0 is compatible with zend guard? thanks. .

ioncube loader confirmed by phpinfo(). php error file was not available when requested & was instructed to create a new one. the new php error file itself only shows a blank page.

hi - i originally (some years ago) had my CC4.3 installed on wampserver 2.0.(WS2.0) however WS2.0 stopped working recently & i had to upgrade to WS2.1. after some issues i finally got it to work & i'm now trying without much success to install my CC4.3. i've created a new global.inc.php file & also a db = cc4 & user = cc4 (with all permissions) in phpmyadmin. the CC4.3 files are in a folder cubecart430 & placed in the www directory of WS. in WS i initiated the CC4.3 install with localhost/cubecart439/setup/install - all proceeds well until i go from step 3 (input of db & admin info ect) to step 4 (permissions) whereupon i get a blank page. can anyone please help? cheryl i

hi - i just changed the domain name of my CC4 website. now i can't login to admin. when i first tried to get to the admin login page using www..newdomain.com/admin.php i got an server error page suggesting that i should go to cp.cubecart.com & there unlock the licence key then return to the error page & delete some 'key' file using a 'delete link' in order for a reset to occur after again reloading www.newdomain.com/admin.php i can now obtain the usual admin login page but when i enter my username & password a parking page headed with my 'old domain name' appears. any help kindly appreciated.

hi bsmithe - many thanks for your reply - unfortunately my host was insistent about removing/modifying the lang/taf files so i just renamed them (all) as jason previously suggested as a possible temporary solution - i have found no "apparent problems" on testing - however will change back. shortly as i appreciate what you are saying. cheryl

hi jason - i will rename as you suggested & see what happens - once again thank you. cheryl

hi i have deleted the " /includes/contenttellafriend.inc.php" and edited the " /viewProd.tpl " file to remove the link. i thought that was it but my host informs me there are several "tellafriend.inc.php" files in " /language/ " and they what them sorted. for example " /language/de/includes/content/tellafriend.inc.php ". does anyone know if it is ok to delete each of the " tellafriend.inc.php " files for each language ? any help would be kindly appreciated. cheryl.

thanks for your reply - i also tried using the hostgator "file manger" but similar occurred ie tried to change permissions from 000 to 644 & delete etc but failed - as it stands the 000 permissions have me totally blocked & i cannot doanything with tellafriend.inc.php. cheryl
