1. Requirements

• osCommerce v2.2
• Apache Web Server
• PHP 4 or above
• MySQL database server

2. Installing osCommerce

Download osCommerce from www.oscommerce.com and follow the instructions in the documentation file to install the software on your server.

You can also download osCommerce with the Telesign module already integrated (from here) - the installation process is exactly the same. In that case you may proceed to the Configuration section.

3. Installing Telesign Module

Start by downloading the module package from here and unpacking it to the same location as osCommerce parent directory.

There are two ways to install osCommerce Telesign Module:

Replacing original files - this means replacing files from osCommerce parent directory with files included in the module package. This method is simplier and faster, but you should use it only if you haven't modified osCommerce files yet, otherwise your changes may be cancelled.

Modifying existing files - this means modifying existing osCommerce files using patches included in the module package. You should use this method if you modified osCommerce files and you want to keep the changes.

Note: In all examples osCommerce is installed in /public_html/catalog.

Replacing original files

Simply copy the content of telesign_replace directory from the module package to your osCommerce parent directory. Some of the files will be replaced with the new ones.

Note: Use cp command with b option to backup existing osCommerce files.

Example:

Modifying existing files

This method uses the patch command to modify the existing osCommerce files. Copy the content of the telesign_patch directory from the module package to your osCommerce parent directory. Use the patch command for each patch file, as shown in the example below.

Note: Some new files will also be added.

Example:

4. Configuration

To complete your Telesign module installation click the install button in Modules->Add-Ons->TeleSign in the admin panel. Now you can enable/disable Telesign phone verification and configure your Telesign module.

Note: You must specify your TeleSign Customer Id and TeleSign Authentication Id - these can be obtained from www.telesign.com

5. Database info

Telesign module updates the database automatically (when clicking the install button in the admin panel). Module adds two columns in the customers and countries tables.
