Cookie problem when linking

Hi All,

 

I have poster a few times about my problem, see old post

 

With trial and error and some input from others, I more and more think it has something to do with Cookies/Sessions_id. Why do I think that, because if I get to my frontpage in my shop: mydomain.com/ and I remove any Cookies I have on my computer and try to paste a link to a specific produkt page, like:

 

mydomain.com/product_info.php?products_id=32 (with www. before, not my domain)

 

I get: error unable to determin page link.

 

But if I remove all my cookies first and then go to my frontpage: mydomain.com/ and paste the same link:

 

mydomain.com/product_info.php?products_id=32

 

it all works out perfectly with no error.

 

I cannot link from outside the shop to a specific product page, I always receive: error unable to determine page link. A lot of dead links from search engines...

 

Am I thinking wrong or what? What can I do to correct the problem? Is it a configuration problem?

 

My information:

 

Search Engine friendly URL is False

Force Cookie True (I have tried to use False, but same problem)

I have my own SSL-cert (not shared)

STS-contrib. installed (tried to use default template for products, same problem)

 

Please help me out here, I must get some sleep soon. :sweating:

 

Thanks

jane

It still seems to me that it may be a sts problem. You should turn off the sts in you sts_display_output.php file and see if it makes any difference. At or about line 36

 

$display_template_output = 1;

$display_normal_output = 0;

 

to this

$display_template_output = 0;

$display_normal_output = 1;

 

You will then be out of sts mode altogether and see if that makes any difference.

The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing.

Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems?

There are many very useful osC Contributions

Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here

Thank you for you reply and help.

 

I change it like above, but with the same result. As soon as I remove the Cookie and tried to paste a link to a specific product page, I got this message:

 

Error, unable to determine page link

 

So I guess the problem is Cookie/Session related? Or can it be something else?

 

And the big question how will I fix it?

 

Thanks
