OSCommerce 4 installation Centos 7 – Unpacking Installation Fees – General Support

admin

I have a recently built Centos 7 system that I am trying to install OSCommerce 4 on it.  I am failing the first check where it is trying to Unpack Installation Files because it’s saying the ‘Directory Writable’ field is failing.  

Apache is using /var/www/html and this is where I have placed the index.php and the folder application_files_do_not_unzip.zip

I have  made the html folder 777 and the owner is apache

I looked through the index.php file (i’m not a PHP programmer) and it looks like the checkWritable function is what is failing me.  From what I can see it’s trying to create a tmp folder and a file in there to decide on whether it returns true or false.  With my permissions I can’t see why it would fail.  Is it the /var/www/html folder that it is looking at?  

  • $folder = INSTALL_ROOT . DIRECTOR_SEPARATOR . ‘tmp’ . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;

Any help with pointing me in the right direction is appreciated.

Thanks

Mark
