| Home : How to install Store Manager | |
File Upload:
Unzip the storemanager.zip file to your local computer and then FTP the
unzipped files to your website.
You will need to transfer the unzipped 'admin' directory to the root
directory of your website (where your html files are located).
Also,
transfer the following files to your root directory:
-thumbnail.asp
-close-up.asp
-categories.asp
-custompage.asp
-search.asp
Permissions:
Permissions need to be set by your host on the 'db' and the 'images'
directories located directly beneath the 'admin'
directory. IUSR needs MODIFY (aka change) permissions set for the
following directories:
-IUSR needs modify permission
on /admin/db directory
-IUSR needs modify permission
on /admin/images directory
Security:
For additional security, you need your host to secure your database
file through IIS by performing the following steps:
1. Start the IIS (Internet Service Manager)
2. Go to your website and navigate to the admin/db directory. There is
a file called db.mdb
in that directory. Right click on this file and
select Properties.
3. Under the File Tab - Access Permissions, uncheck Read.
4. Click OK on all dialog boxes until you are back to the IIS
administration window.
(The above assumes that you have access to your server or that your ISP
will assist you.)
Getting started:
To access your inventory manager, open up a web browser and go to your
website. Then, type
in "/admin/default.asp" (without the quotes) after your website
address. For example, the following
will be in the address of your web browser where www.mywebsite.com is
the address (URL) for your
website:
http://www.mywebsite.com/admin/default.asp
Once you have accessed this page successfully, you will be prompted to
enter in your email
address and password to use when logging into the Store
Manager. Once set, you will then be prompted to
re-enter your email address and password. You are now able to
start entering your category and
product information for your web store.
