Anyone knows if EasyPopulate 2.60 (or latest v2.73-MS2) works with the OScommerce version provided from Cpanel ?

Thank you

Not sure, does it require MS2.2?

I stopped allowing the updates because is was an old version and replace the version stored with a MS2.2 version.

I posted an upgrade script somewhere on the forums but cannot locate it.

# uposCommerce.sh
#
# Update the cPanel addon installation package for osCommerce to the
# version in the URL. Currently MS2-2.2 7-12-2003
#
# This script will download the version from sourceforge then unpack,
# and create a pkg.tar.gz for the cPanel install program to use
#
# Change the URL if you want a different snapshot
URL=http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/tep/oscommerce-2.2ms2.tar.gz

# Location cPanel keeps our pkg.tar.gz for the installs
cPanelDir=/usr/local/cpanel/addons/osCommerce
# I bulid the package in /tmp
cd /tmp

wget $URL

# Unpack it ....
tar zxvf oscommerce-2.2ms2.tar.gz
DIR=/tmp/oscommerce-2.2ms2

mkdir /tmp/os
mkdir /tmp/os/catalog
mkdir /tmp/os/admin

cd $DIR
cp -r catalog /tmp/os/catalog
cd catalog

# The admin directory needs to be its own directory for the pkg.tar.gz
cp -r admin /tmp/os/admin

# We do not need the admin directory in the catalog directory
rm -rf /tmp/os/catalog/catalog/admin

mv /tmp/os /tmp/pkg

cd /tmp
tar cvfz pkg.tar.gz pkg

# Now put it in the /usr/local/cpanel/addons/osCommerce directory
cp $cPanelDir/pkg.tar.gz $cPanelDir/pkg.tar.gz.oldcp pkg.tar.gz $cPanelDir

# Clean up the temporary files I just created
rm pkg.tar.gz
rm -rf pkg

#
# End
#

You could get just about any version you want. If you want the most current just change the top of the script.
