osCommerce not working after "Update"

[AOTC]

We are trying to use Plesk to roll out osCommerce for our clients.

It was working fine before and then I did an "Update" and all versions of osCommerce that I now install give me this error

==========
Server Requirement Error: register_globals is disabled in your PHP configuration. This can be enabled in your php.ini configuration file or in the .htaccess file in your catalog directory.
==========

When I try to change register_globals I cannot load it back to the server as the permissions are denied for FTP to etc/.

Has someone else been able to resolve this?

Cheers
Gabriel

Add to the existing .htaccess in the root of the directory (ie. httpdocs/) / or create a .htaccess file with

php_value register_globals 1

in it, you may also find that some OsC modules require -

php_value register_long_arrays 1
