Hi Mario,

have you had a chance to look at Zencart Shopping Cart.

http://www.zen-cart.com/


It is much more powerful than OScommerce

Check out its feature

I was about to test it. Someone else already asked me about support for it. I think I'll test this weekend.

Regards,

Mario A. Valdez-Ramirez.

By mid-January (2006) there are plans to provide user-defined custom product fields (and maybe fields for non-product data). So, if your store uses some extra fields not available in the normal osCommerce distribution, you could add them to be able to list them and edite them. The purpose is to support modified versions of osCommerce, including derived applications like ZenCart.

However, at this point I don't know if that would be enough to say "OSCPMWin is 100% ZenCart-compatible", but I hope it can get us close to 85-90%.

Mario A. Valdez-Ramirez.

Thanks for the update Mario

Sounds AWSOME!!!

Rich!

Hi Mario, thank's for your great work.

I had installing oscpmwin, I have got zencart 1.2.6d. But this isn't OK . I execute the "oscpm1_upload.php" file it shows this error:

Warning: main(includes/functions/database.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in \\myserver\oscpm1_upload.php on line 116

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'includes/functions/database.php' (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in \\myserver\oscpm1_upload.php on line 116

The file database.php is in "admin/includes/functions/database.php" I replace line 116 "require (DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . "database.php");" x "require ("admin/includes/functions/database.php");"

This is OK

But now show this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tep_db_connect() in \\myserver\oscpm1_upload.php on line 181


are there a solution? are there oscpwin version for zencart compatibility? I like zencart is best than oscommerce, is more options, updates and security.

Thank's
Pika

Hey Mario ,
do you have a status for Zen ?

Hi Mario. I heard about OSCPM and I beleive its an excellent program! At the moment I am trying to configure it with Zen Cart, but i found exactly tha same error of pikatxu:

osCommerce Product Manager (OSCPMWin),
server-side script 0.1.15

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tep_db_connect() in /home/yenssens/public_html/medicaluna2/oscpm1_upload.php on line 182


Is there any solution?

Thank you Mario

Hi. The problem with ZenCart is that the database functions of osCommerce (the tep_db_xxxx family of functions) have been replaced by an object called queryFactory. To support ZenCart I first need to check how much code I need to change in the server-side script. Then I could rewrite the code to support both plain osCommerce and ZenCart (and other variants).

So, the answer to your question is yes, there is a solution. But I still have not written it.

If you (or anybody) know a bit of PHP and know both the ZenCart code and the osCommerce code, you could do the changes yourself or just give me a hint about the differences.

I think (but I'm not sure as I have not reviewed the ZC code) I need to create a queryFactory instance, then call its connect method (not the tep_db_connect function), then use Execute to do the SQL queries (not the tep_db_query function), and use the returning object (recordset-like?) from Execute to iterate thru the database records (with MoveNext).


This is in my todo-list, of course.

I am using OSCPMWin wit5h Zencart without any problem, just uploaded few files from oSCommerce in a right directories and it is working without any problems!!

I manage to connect the following way:
1) installed the OSCPMWin on my computer
2) Entered all details of my ZenCart into OSCPMWin
3) Tried to connect
4) had problem
5) Checked error logs to find out which files do I need.
6) downloaded the oSCommerce
7) uploaded the files which was in error logs
8 ) Successfully Connected

This mean that user mvaldez never tried anyting to develop...

Aaaaah. Are you using the latest beta version of OSCPMWin?

Anyway, what you did was to patch your ZenCart with the original osCommerce functions (not patching segments of code, but using whole files). You have given me an idea.


A partial solution would be to take the original osCommerce DB functions and include them in the oscpm1_upload.php file (I mean include with copy-paste, not dynamically at run time). I say "partial" because ZenCart seems to be ready for several DB backends, and this solution would only work for MySQL.

Very neat, Alex. I'll do some testings and I think I'll release a new server-side script specially for ZenCart.


Regards,

Mario A. Valdez-Ramirez.

I will give it a try that way then
mario when you plan release something neat ?

To all ZenCart users:

You can download a beta version with ZenCart support from: http://mariovaldez.net/software/oscpmwi ... _versions/

Please download the oscpmwin_0.4.1.692_setup.exe file (or any newer version). This is a beta version, which is mostly the same than the latest stable version with some changes in the server-side script so that now it should work with ZenCart.

In this beta version I have removed the database-tables configuration options, as now the application tries to detect automatically the names of your database tables, with or without a prefix.

Please let me know how it works.

Regards,

Mario A. Valdez-Ramirez.

I test zen cart 1.3.7 with oscpmwin_0.4.1.816 , but not work

Hi,

I just downloaded oscpmwin_0.4.1.692_setup.exe and tested it with my Zen Cart installation.

It works perfectl. NO problem with the database.php or the undefined function tep_db_connect().

Just in case, my Zen Cart installation is zen-cart-v1.3.7.1-full-patched-07052007.zip

Thank you Mario.
