Wordpress and OSCommerce admin file

Well, I managed to get OSCommerce up on my site but for some reason the admin file in the catalog folder did not FTP across. I configured the other OSCommerce folders with the correct permissions, etc. and when I went to configure the admin folder it wasn't there! So I transferred it across again and it still did not appear.

Is this a Wordpress issue? I can see the sample store just fine. I just can't get into the admin area.

I have a sneaking suspicion that I know what's wrong here. I just tried to copy over the admin file again and it landed in the images folder. The file I need to change permissions on is the graphs folder that is supposed to be in the path: catalog/admin/images but it's not there. The admin folder gets copied into the images folder for some reason and does not have images/graphs folder?

So I'm thinking that because I set up a sub-domain that maybe that's the problem? Would it be best to reinstall it at the root and forget about the sub-domain?

So the reason I can't get to the admin page is because it doesn't exist for the path [shop.domain name]/catalog/admin. I'm really confused.

I am feeling completely defeated! I have removed OSCommerce and FTP'd it back up at least 3 times now and I still get an error: Cannot connect to database! I don't know what I am doing wrong! I went into my hosting to the PHPMyAdmin panel to delete the database but it's not there. Don't know where to go from here.....

Ok, I FINALLY got it working!!

It seems that there were many problems here with the installation. After doing a clean install and configuration, all is working fine now. There seems to be some confusion regarding the .htaccess file, tho. The permissions are set properly yet I keep getting a message in the admin panel that it needs to be writable--but it already is. My hosting provider says that everything looks good and safe. On to customizing it!

haha, found it funny that you're the only one posting in this tread. glad you got it worked out.
