It
is very important that you follow these steps in the exact order listed here
to avoid uncorrectable problems.New ShopZone installation - Start at #1
Upgrading from 3 to 3.5 or 3.7 - Start at #3
ShopZone installed; you just need to publish - Start at #4
- Install the basic ShopZone 3 software
We can provide it for you if you don't have it.
- Be sure you have the latest ODBC
driver for Microsoft VisualFoxPro
You probably have them installed if you have Microsoft
Office installed, but If you are getting database or odbc
errors when you open the web, you can automatically install
it from:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/downloads/updates/odbc/default.aspx
- Install 3.5 or 3.7 files
BEFORE you create any new store
Files for 3.5 license holders, click here
Files for 3.7 license holders, click here
- BEFORE you choose your ISP from
the list ShopZone provides, you need to download the 2
moonSlice config files named
moonSlice_SharedSSL.ini
moonslice_YourOwnSSL.ini
Put these in your "ShopzonePro30/ISP database" subfolder (or
ShopZone/ISP database folder for ShopZone2 users).
Do NOT use the moonslice ISP ini files that came with
ShopZone. These are not configured properly.
- Web Properties settings: Go to
FILE / Web Properties / ISP tab
Click "Select" next to "Internet Service provider" to choose
your "ini" configurations.
If you are SHARING an SSL certificate on our servers, choose
"moonSlice_SharedSSL.ini" from the ISP tab under web
properties from inside ShopZone. If you have your OWN SSL
certificate on our servers, choose "moonSlice_YourOwnSSL.ini"
from the ISP tab under web properties from inside ShopZone.
FTP Server Name:
Shared certificate: enter "www.yourdomain.ext"
Your own SSL certificate: enter the name of your
certificate; e.g.: www.yourdomain.ext (or "YourIP" prior to
DNS pointing).
User ID: yourusername
Subdirectory: add a subdirectory only if you want all your
ShopZone files placed in a separate subdirectory of your
site to keep them separate from non-ShopZone files you plan
to upload.
Domain Name: "www.yourdomain.ext"
- Read
Tips, Tricks, &
Shortcuts before building your website. A MUST for
good quality look and function.
- Publish
- To view your site before your domain name
points to our server: If you have not already changed the dns so that your domain name points to our server, you can
view your store at:
http://host.moonslice.com/cgibin/webc.cgi/~yourusername/st_main.html
- License Registration Requirements after
you publish and view your site online you will be asked to
activate your license. Follow the instructions below exactly
for either "Shared SSL" or "Your own SSL" for what to enter
under the URL's near the bottom of the license activation
page.
Shared SSL certificate:
If you do not have your domain name pointing to our
nameservers yet, you will get a license activation error for
the non-secure pages. Don't worry - it will go away when
your domain name points to us. You can still test the site
by ordering products, and once you get to the checkout, the
error messages will go away. Just go to:
http://host.moonslice.com/cgibin/webc.cgi/~yourusername/st_main.html
Your own SSL certificate with your own IP:
You may also want to put http://yourIP and https://yourIP so
you can view your site prior to dns pointing.
- Have your domain point to our servers
If you are on a shared IP/shared SSL, then your site will
not function until the dns nameservers for yourdomain.ext
are changed to dns1.moonslice.com (64.71.141.109) and
dns2.moonslice.com (64.71.169.17). Be sure to have us make
the changes a couple of days before you want it to work. We
can send you a special config.ini file that works
specifically without the dns moving, but then you will have
to replace it with the one provided here after the dns is
moved. Call us and we can provide that for you if necessary.
