Before going for an install check whether you meet the requirements

Create a subdirectory in which you need to install the CubeCart
example domain.com/business/

# Download the source code from their site at : http://www.cubecart.com/site/home/
Free download as well as paid ones are available.
# Uncompress the source code to the store directory created above.
# Create a database using the control panel.
# In the browser access the link : https://www.cubecart.com/build/
# Enter the details about the database you have created and also about the administrator details. You can select any skin. In the ‘Advanced’ settings
Store URL : http://www.domain.com/business(If the directory name of the cart(ie. ‘upload’ file) is set as ’store’)
Server Root Directory : /home/user/public-html/store
Site Root Relative Path : /store/

Once the form is complete they will provide a config file named ‘global.inc.php’ and an SQL database dump.
Copy the contents of global.inc.php and paste it to upload/includes/global.inc.php.
Restore the database dump to the database you have created.

Now you can access the shopping cart at: http://domain.com/business
And the admin area can be accessed at: http://domain/business/admin

The configuration file for cubecart is ‘global.inc.php’.
