Getting ready to run the Zen Cart Installer


Before running the installer, make sure you have the following information at hand:

  • The physical path to your new Zen Cart directory
    This will look something like this: /home/kh8475/public_html/catalog
  • The Virtual HTTP Path (the URL to your domain and directory for your shop)
    For example: http://www.mydomain.com/catalog
  • The Virtual HTTPS Server (the secure URL to your domain)
    Example: https://www.mydomain.com

    Note: if you have a shared certificate on a virtual server this may look like:
    https://mydomain.secureservername.net/
    - or – https://secure.sharedservername.net/~username
  • The Virtual HTTPS Path (the secure URL to your domain and directory for your shop)
    Example: https://www.mydomain.com/catalog
    - or – https://secure.sharedservername.net/~username/catalog
  • Zen Cart Database Name, Zen Cart Database Username, Zen Cart Database Password
    You should have these details recorded from step four ‘Creating a MySQL Database in cPanel for Zen Cart Installation’.
