Sorry to say but I am out of ideas - hopefully someone else has a few. It sure looks like it should work.

When you completed the install, did a page show that said intall was successful and give you links to both front end and back end?
I think you are either calling on the wrong address or files are in the wrong place.

Thanks, but that doesn’t fix it either. I put in a support case. We’ll see what they say.
I had the same problem on my first attempt installing version 2.0.5 into another directory in preparation for upgrade.
Here is a history and hopefully it may help you.
Hosting: Jumba Australia
Domain: mydomain.com.au/cs2
File: cscart_v2.0.5.zip (NOTE: See the extension .zip)
Cpanel: Used file manager to upload and extract contents to /cs2 folder
Database: New
Install: Followed install process = failed just like yourself.
Fix:
Delete all in cs2 and new database and start from scratch:
Same method as above except I downloaded cscart_v2.0.5.tgz instead of .zip.
Now whilst the new version worked, I was not able to upgrade from 1.3.5 sp4 to 2.0.5 as during the upgrade process it hung on the 2nd database structure preparation. This is independant from your issue though.
Update: It was a Internet Explorer 8 problem. Moving to Firefox fixed the upgrade problem.

Thanks, but I don’t think I’ll have to go through a reinstall. The files are there, but they’re not being accessed correctly. It seems that this has to do with the .htaccess file not being modified correctly during install. Once I find out which code needs to be changed in the file, I’ll update the thread.
[quote name=‘knoxbury’]I’m trying to upgrade my 1.3.5 SP2 site to 2.0.5. My 1st step is to install 2.0.5 into a directory I’ve called cscart2.
I went through the install steps and all seemed to succeed, but when I go to [url]http://www.domainname.com/cscart2[/url] it brings up a page not found error. And when I go to [url]http://www.domainname.com/cscart2/index.php[/url], it takes me to the home page of my 1.3.5 site in the root directory and I’m not sure why.
Any ideas on this one? How do I get to the home page of the 2.0.5 site inside the cscart2 directory?[/QUOTE]
I think your problem is that you simply make new directory via ftp and try to install cs cart there, am I right?
You must create a proper subdomain on your server via shared hosting or dedicated server control panel. Best is
cs2.yourdomain.com
You cannot install one cart to
domain.com
to domain.com/store if it is not configured properly via servers panel.
Example if I want to install to domain.com/store or store.domain.com
It is installed on server to
/home/domain.com/domains/store.domain.com
and not to
/home/domain.com/public_html/store
This is on dedicated, on shared it is bit different.

That is not correct. You can install CS-Cart to a directory such as domain.com/cscart. The problem appears to be that the install did not update the .htaccess file correctly. I’m still waiting to hear back from support to confirm.

So how does it redirects to 135 store then?

For example
enter this
your domain.com/NONEEXISTINGDIRECTORY
or domain.com/cs2/noneexistingdir
You will get to 404 Page Not Found provided by 135, because cart in root direcory manages all subdirs…
This is my point…
I think two carts cannot be in one root, they must be in proper subdomain
Cart also goes blank if you make duplicate php files like
index.php
and
indexBAK.php
I’m successfully running 1.3.5. sp4 in www.mydomain.com.au and 2.0.5 upgraded with Firefox into www.mydomain.com.au/cs2
Cheers.
I can confirm that you are running 1.3.5sp4.
I can also confirm that you have 2.0.5 running successfully.
So… What’s the issue?

He was just responding to the previous post saying that this setup could not be done.

No, just waiting to hear back from support at this point regarding the .htaccess file. I got the front end working by working with the .htacess file, but I still can’t get the admin section working (https).
Can you disable HTTPS?
If you disable HTTP you might be able to refer to the correct URL formatting when you go to activated it next time.
I reckon it’s because you don’t have the correct https:// or https://www. in the config

Unfortunately, that’s not the problem. Still trying to figure it out. I’m emailing my host now.
This FINALLY got resolved . . . What a “smooth” install process :rolleyes:
The problem with the admin section ended up being that the cs-cart install script did not correctly set the permissions on the admin.php file. Here is what support told me.
[quote]
Permissions (666) are not allowed for PHP scripts on your server (at least this script did not work properly with these permissions on your server).
I have changed permissions for this file to 644 (owner: read and write permissions, group: only read permissions, others: only read permissions).
