osCommerce - Your Shopping Cart is empty!

Posted by admin in osCommerce, tips

I installed Ultimate SEO contribution to my osCommerce shop. Then i noticed, if I click on ‘Buy now’ button from product listing page, I get ‘Your Shopping Cart is empty!’ page. That’s not good for business right, so I had to fix the problem. So to do that, open /includes/modelus/product_listing.php and find code:

$lc_text = ‘<a href=”‘ . tep_href_link(basename($PHP_SELF), tep_get_all_get_params(array(’action’)) . ‘action=buy_now&products_id=’ . $listing[’products_id’]) . ‘”>’ . tep_image_button(’button_buy_now.gif’, IMAGE_BUTTON_BUY_NOW) . ‘</a> ‘;

and repleace it with:

$lc_text = ‘<a href=”‘ . tep_href_link(basename($PHP_SELF), ‘action=buy_now&products_id=’ . $listing[’products_id’]) . ‘”>’ . tep_image_button(’button_buy_now.gif’) . ‘</a> ‘;

osCommerce: 1046 - No Database Selected

Posted by admin in osCommerce, tips

Here is a solution to error:

1046 - No Database Selected
select configuration_key as cfgKey, configuration_value as cfgValue from configuration
[TEP STOP]

Open file /catalog/includes/confugure.php and check if your database properties (DataBase Name, UserName and PassWord) are correct.

define(’DB_SERVER’, ‘localhost’); // in most cases you don’t have to change this
define(’DB_SERVER_USERNAME’, ‘database_username’);
define(’DB_SERVER_PASSWORD’, ‘database_password’);
define(’DB_DATABASE’, ‘database_name’);

Make the same check in file /catalog/admin/includes/confugure.php for admin area to work.
