Hi

I have not gottin my shopping cart working yet.

If I select products to be placed in my shopping cart, when I view my "Shopping Cart" its blank and says "no items in cart"

Is there something I need to enable when setting up the cart for the first time?

Thanks a lot

What is the URL to your shop Vince? It sounds like your server may not have cURL or PHP Sessions enabled.

Yep, I was right. You do not have PHP Sessions enabled on your server.

You will need to contact your hosting provider and get them to enable that for you.

Hi Scott

I had FatCow check it and PHP was enabled but it was version 5 they put ver 4 on there to see if the works better.

I ran your test here are the results. I got one failure for session data.

CoffeeCup Shopping Cart Server Validator.
Server Configuration
Url to reach site : "www.thespirituallygifted.com".
Web server software: Apache/2
Guest operating system: Linux.
PHP Version
OK - installed version of PHP on this server is: 4.4.9.
PHP Extensions
OK - found all PHP features needed to run the cart scripts.
Session Data
FAILED - this server can not store cart data for users.

OK - successfully contacted the PayPal server.
Connectivity with Google Checkout

Same problem. PHP Sessions are not enabled.

Well they didn't want to support it but I pushed back a lot and got it done.

And now its working.

Here is the fix.

In the PHP Config PHP.ini in the fatcow dashboard
seach for the 3rd session.sav_path=;

then remove the ";" an insert the long path name



Thanks
