Any possibility of offering this via the Softaculous auto-installer?

We automated a lot of new installations of software with very little user intervention.

We will consider creating X-Cart package for the Softaculous auto-installer

Installs easily and uninstalls clean. One user wanted to install in their web root directory and left the directory space blank, and would not install.

Thank you for your feedback!

We will check the add-on, and will make the necessary changes to eliminate the problem.

We will keep you informed once the new version of the add-on becomes available (it will be automatically provided via our cPanelSync server, which URL is specified in the 1st post).

OK, we have checked the issue in question.

It appears that one of the cPAddons requirements is to provide a non-empty installation parameter - 'installdir' (directory where X-Cart is going to be installed on web-site).

This allows to prevent accidental lost of files in the web root directory (for example, by overwriting the existing web-site's .htaccess file with the one supplied with the X-Cart software).

Anyway, customers can move their X-Cart installation from the web-site's directory, specified during the installation, to the web root directory, just following this detailed instruction provided in our Knowledge Base:

* X-Cart:Moving store to web-root directory
