Please Help!

Here is my problem, I am installing OsCommerce remotely on a host at Globat.com

I had it working fine on my computer

 

http://65.23.28.142/tilt_amusements/catalog/

 

then I simply tried to make it work on the remote host

 

http://www.tiltamusements.com/catalog/

 

Almost everything worked except for when I try to go to the account page, or when I add something to the cart, I just get blank pages.

 

Well, then I got the phpinfo from the remote server and saw that they had their display_errors setting OFF.

so I added this to the 'application_top.php' file to simply be able to display errors on these blank pages because after extensive trouble shooting I thought this was the only thing left.

this is what I added

 

set_ini('display_error', 1);

 

by the way I am running php 4.3.2 on my computer, and my host is running 4.3.4 if that has anything to do with it.

also the phpinfo of my remote host is at

 

http://65.23.28.142/tilt_amusements/phpinfo.php

 

if you want to check the incomparison to my own which are loacted at

 

http://65.23.28.142/phpinfo.php

 

 

Before you may do any of this. Here are the errors that are displayed now that I can see them.

Could anyone please help?! :'(

I may be way off track here but one of the most common causes of a headers already sent error is having blank space at the top of your php file!

 

Make sure that the file has the <? php tag right at the top with no spaces or line breaks!

 

e.g.

 

<?php
/*
 $Id: checkout_payment.php,v 1.113 2003/06/29 23:03:27 hpdl Exp $

 osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions

NOT

 

<?php
/*
 $Id: checkout_payment.php,v 1.113 2003/06/29 23:03:27 hpdl Exp $

Let us know if this sorts it!

I am about to check your suggestion Simmy

but I noticed I gave the wrong phpinfo address, here they are again

 

My remote

http://www.tilt_amusements.com/phpinfo.php

 

My local

http://65.23.28.142/phpinfo.php

[bobalouie]

WOW I DID IT AGAIN, I need to slow down

 

My remote

http://www.tiltamusements.com/phpinfo.php

[bobalouie]

Oh my!!!!!

A week's worth of troubleshooting and this is what was wrong! >_<

 

ONE SPACE IN FRONT OF THE OPEING <?php

 

just in the configure.php file

 

Wow! I don't know what to say :D

 

Thanks a lot.

 

I guess I wouldn't have been able to get your help if I had not done all the other stuff with the phpinfo and the error displays and such, so it wasn't all lost time.

 

But thanks again. B)

WhooHoo, a happy customer :thumbsup: . Most of the time my advice is sh*te!! :lol:

Download an editor. It will discolor if you add a funky space and you won't have these woes again. Many editors allow you to connect to your ftp on the left, and edit code on the right. TSW isn't bad but it gives me error on boot. Probably something on my end... more annoyign that loss of function.
