OSCommerce Import Module Settings


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm trying to figure out how to use the Importer OSCommerce v1.0 module from the Back Office. I'm using PrestaShop v1.4.3. I'm using OSCommerce v2.3.1.

I set up a test OSCommerce store last night, but I just cannot figure out what the settings should look like for the following fields:

Server: ?
User: ?
Password: ?
Database: ?
Database Prefix: ?

I went into the OSCommerce configure.php file and found the following settings (I modified the results below so you can't see the actual values):

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'xyz_scm1');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'xyz123');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'xyz_scm1');

With this information, I thought that the settings should look like this:

Server: localhost
User: xyz_scm1
Password: xyz123
Database: xyz_scm1
Database Prefix: xyz_

Unfortunately, those values aren't working and I cannot make a connection to the OSCommerce database. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Update:

I determined that I was incorrect in thinking that the database prefix was supposed to be "xyz_" as noted above. I opened up the OSCommerce tables and didn't see anything like what PrestaShop has as a database prefix. PrestaShop uses the prefix of "ps_", unless you change it when you install your store initially.

Since OSCommerce did not appear to have a database prefix, I left that field blank and moved on. That seemed to work, however, I came across an error that said: Fatal error : iso code is not correct. After looking around a bit, I found many posts on OSCommerce importing issues.

Here is a link to what, I think, is the most current status of the Importer OSCommerce Module: http://forge.prestashop.com/browse/PSCFI-2340.

The short story is that is doesn't currently work, but the thread moderator sounds like he may be able to help.
