4. Login in to the Backend (Administration) of your site (

http://www.your_site.com/

administrator/

5. When having logged in, you see this URL in the address bar:

http://www.your_site.com/administrator/index2.php

6. Now just add "?option=com_virtuemart" after

index2.php

, so it looks like this in your

browser's address bar:

http://www.your_site.com/administrator/

index2.php?option=com_virtuemart

and submit (press Enter).

7. You should now see the "Installation was successful..." Screen. There you can click on "GO TO

THE SHOP >>" or "INSTALL SAMPLE DATA >>" (when you want to have some sample
Products and Categories in your Shop).

8. That's it.

9. To install the Modules and Mambots for VirtueMart, follow the instructions of the Automatic

Installation, Steps 6 and 7. If this doesn't help you, because NO automatic installations are possible,
you can manually upload the files (you have probably already done this in step 3).

Modules and Mambots require an entry in the table jos_mambots / jos_modules.

You can add these entries by uploading an SQL file (using phpMyAdmin) that contains all
necessary queries:

/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/sql/

virtuemart_modules.installation.sql

Now you should have installed VirtueMart correctly.

3.5. Installation FAQ

3.5.1.1.

The Installer tells me "ERROR: Could not find an XML setup file in the package". What's
wrong?

Mostly

this

problem

arises

because

you

have

not

unpacked

the

file

VirtueMart_x.x_COMPLETE_PACKAGE.zip

before and tried uploading / installing this

file.

3.5.1.2.

The Installer tells me "Another component is already using the directory com_virtuemart"

Please delete the directories

/site_root/components/com_virtuemart

and

site_root/administrator/components/com_virtuemart

. If you can't delete

the directories using ftp, try the file manager for Joomla!, joomlaXplorer [http://joomlacode.org/
gf/project/joomlaxplorer], instead.

3.5.1.3.

When using the automatic installation nothing happens after clicking on "Upload & Install"
What's the cause?
