new E-commerce 3.6.5 : installation problem

Yes! I am having the exact same problem: Warning: mkdir(/home/lowglyce/public_html/members/wp-content/plugins/wp-shopping-cart/product_images/thumbnails/) [function.mkdir]: No such file or directory in /home/lowglyce/public_html/members/wp-content/plugins/wp-shopping-cart/install_and_update.php on line 1089
This is on a site running WordPress 2.3.1. If you have found the answer, I would really like to know it!

OK – The problem is fixed. It looks like there are two missing directories. Deactivate the plugin and put a directory called product_images in your wp-shopping-cart directory. Then, put another directory called thumbnails in the product_images directory. You should now be able to activate the plugin without any errors. Note: It might not be necessary to make the thumbnails directory, since it looks like this code is supposed to do that, but I decided not to take any chances. Good luck!

Also the latest version 3.6.6 fixes this issue.

3.6.6 Works fine for me!!!
Thanks !!!

3.6.6 didn’t work for me trying to do a fresh install.

I eventually narrowed it down to the lines that define the upload directories in wp-shopping-cart.php:

$wpsc_category_dir = ABSPATH.”{$upload_path}/wpsc/category_images/”;

For me atleast, the $upload_path already contains the ABSPATH, so it was creating a redundant directory structure. If I changed the lines
to:

$wpsc_category_dir = “{$upload_path}/wpsc/category_images/”;

then it worked fine. Figured that out after hardcoding the $upload_path again to ‘wp-content/uploads’ worked as well.
