Tutorial: Installing osCommerce on WampServer

First of all, get WampServer from here

Install it with Apache, MySQL, PHP, phpMyAdmin. Skip the steps related to uploading files to your hosting, as your Wamp will be running locally on your computer.

Create a new database for your future local site (in phpMyAdmin).

Download osCommerce Online Merchant from here

Extract the files somewhere on your computer.

Copy the content of the "catalog" folder to the web root folder of your server (wamp/www directory).

Start Apache and MySQL, navigate to your local site, for example, if you have osCommerce files in folder wamp/www/catalog, the link to your site will be http://localhost/catalog

Follow the installation guide.

At the end you'll be able to see the site, for example, by opening the link http://localhost/catalog

To login to your admin panel just add "admin": http://localhost/catalog/admin
