Mystery solved then...  this was introduced in version 2.2.0.5 - see http://www.konakart.com/CHANGES.txt

We're now on version 2.2.1.0...  it's available for download.

There are many changes since 2.2.0.4..  I would encourage you to upgrade asap.

Hello Costis,

Good news that you seem to be getting along so well with your project!  We'd be very interested to hear more details of what you are building...  is it some kind of shopping mall with KonaKart shops?   Please send a link, it sounds fascinating 

To your questions...

Since we are about to kick it off now, Q1: i read somewhere in this forum that you suggest to install around 40 shops on a 2 Gig RAM dual core-PC. Is there any set-up one could do in order to increase the number without compromising performance?

You could split the shops over more tomcats either on the same machine or across multiple machines.  The set-up is quite flexible being a standard J2EE application so the best route might well be to try out a few configurations and measure the performance for yourself.

and Q2: How do we install all 40 shops with their admin-applications? Could we do it under a common Tomcat server, or do we have to install 40 times KonaKart with the built-in Tomcat instance, as is, from the installation script?

I would write a little script that automates this process. (We don't provide a script for this although we do provide consultancy in such areas).  I'd install one KonaKart + Admin + tomcat in the normal way - then duplicate the konakart and konakartadmin webapps as many times as you need and finally configure the duplicated webapps as required.
You might choose to deploy all the Admin Apps to some other server to maximise the resources available to the konakart webapps (you might then need to allow for some small problems such as not being able to see the same file system for image uploads etc... but you can work around these problems in various ways).  You may also find that running the Admin Apps on an internal server behind the firewall provides better security.   There are lots of options..

Good luck!

Hello,

Look for "Quantities" under edit product.  I can't understand why you don't see it?

It's clearly visible on the screenshots here:  http://www.konakart.com/adm.php - look under "edit product".

Do you see something else?

Hello,

If you haven't already noticed...   email set-up is a lot more flexible and customizable in the latest KonaKart 2.2.1.0 version.

Check out:  http://www.konakart.com/configurationfaq.php#How_Do_I_Set_Up_Email

You can even find an example of using google's SMTP server for sending mail in the download kit (although it's commented out by default).

Hello Lalit,

There are no known problems with the email set-up.

Note that enhancements were made in KonaKart 2.2.1.0 to allow more email configuration options.

These are explained in http://www.konakart.com/configurationfaq.php#How_Do_I_Set_Up_Email

Yes, KonaKart sends mail to an SMTP server.

What problems are you having?

Heidi

Hello,

Can I use Konakart for commercial shopping cart application?

Yes of course!

Can I chaneg the Logo KonaKart to My Company Logo.

Yes, we would expect people to change the logo to their own.

But i can keep the footer as is

Yes, you have to leave the "Powered by KonaKart" link (see licence link below)

Will there be any violation in doing so?

Please see the licence at http://www.konakart.com/documents/LICENSE.txt

FYI...   Thanks to the contribution of a nominal sum, the PayJunction payment module was implemented for KonaKart version 2.2.1.0 - it's available now.

Hello,

Why don't you install using the GUI installer and then just change the server.xml then you should see it working.. just as Ryan did earlier.

If so, you could then see what the differences are between the working version and the one you have that doesn't work.
