Hi David,
Sorry for been thick here, but can't seem to find a thread regarding instructions on installing one central PT database to feed several sites?
I'm sure I've seen it before?
However, I have installed on a seperate database, and just created a directory called mystore and installed PT there, as all my sites are on the same server, I assume that I can just use this directory as a subdomain in so much as the path would be www.mydomain.com/mystore/ is that correct?
In the config.php file are these setting therefore correct?
$config_title = "";
$config_charset = "utf-8";
$config_baseHREF = "/mystore/";
$config_useRewrite = true;
$config_useRelated = true;
$config_useTracking = true;
$config_useJavaScript = true;
$config_useInteraction = true;
$config_currencyHTML = "£";
$config_resultsPerPage = 20;
$config_databaseServer = "dbserver";
$config_databaseUsername = "db_user";
$config_databasePassword = "db_pass";
$config_databaseName = "db_pass";
$config_databaseTablePrefix = "";
?>
Appreciate your advice
Regards
paul
Hi David,
I have set it up now, though on my admin page,underneath the Admin header bar, just above the database grid the following line appears, do you have any ideas how I correct the problem?
[SELECT * FROM `feeds`][Table 'db279653744.feeds' doesn't exist]
Regards
Paul
Hi Paul,
That indicates the database tables have not yet been created. Can you check by going to setup.php - you should see "Checking database tables...PASS"; otherwise a link to install the database tables; and if the latter click the link and that should set everything up...
If it does say "PASS", could you go back to /admin/ then try using the Featured Products tool (top menu) and just enter anything in the box, click "Save", then go back to tool to see if the contents have been saved - this is just to check that the database is working and the problem is limited to the feeds table...
Cheers,
David.
David,
almost as soon as I sent that last night I knew what I hadn't done...
Just set it up, sorry to waste your time, all seems to be working
Regards
Hi Paul,
That would work fine - and then you can install Price Tapestry anywhere else on the same server, and just use the same database details, then you only need to manage your feeds and use the /admin/ folder on the one installation (/mystore/).
Cheers,
David.
