Magento

Hi,

I’m hosted by Godaddy and i’m getting : No input File Specified, after i downloaded the magento directory to my web root and tried to access :http://www.mywebsite.com/magento in order to install magento. They suggested me to pull out all the files and folders inside the magento directory to the web root directory, but i do not think this will work either.  has someone already tried it ?

Thank you!

Hello TheCafe,

If you have installed Magento into the root directory then you need not include the ‘/magento’ part of the URL;

http://www.mywebsite.com

This should bring up the installer; that is if you have all the files located at the root ‘/’ directory.

If you have placed the files inside a directory called ‘magento’, then you would use the /magento URL path.

I Hope this helps you.

Hello Crucial Web Host,

Thank you very much for your answer, indeed i just put all the files and folders from the magento directory into the web root directory and just typed http://www.mywebsite.com and was redirected to http://www.mywebsite.com/index.php/install/.

but all i get is still the : No input file specified.

Thank you very much anyways.

That’s a GoDaddy issue. You’ll want to edit the .htaccess file and add this to top:

Options -MultiViews

If that doesn’t work, add this to your php.ini file:

cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1

And if that doesn’t work, rename your php.ini file to php5.ini.

Thank you very very much for your help, finally with your instructions it is working wow!

1)Putting:  Options -Multiviews, in the .htaccess did not fixed it, but i left it there.
2)Adding the line :  cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1, in the php.ini did not fixed it, but i left it there.
3) renaming php.ini to php5.ini, yes fixed it, with 1) and 2) set as you said.

Thank you again for that great help!
