Problem Connecting

[3960AD]

Forum,

 

I successfully installed osCommerce on Gentoo Linux. And have it up and running on my local machine. However, I can't seem to see everypage. When I click to view 'my account', 'create an account', 'checkout', 'write a review', and 'notifications'' I get an alert box that says "the connection was refused when attempting to contact 127.0.0.1"

 

I can search, view products and even add products. I can also change language and basically everything else.

 

Any suggestions or advice?

 

Thanks,

Those pages you mentioned above have 1 thing in common, that's SSL. Check your settings in catalog/includes/configure.php.

 

If you don't have SSL, you should set it to false. If you have static IP, SSL Certificates etc. properly installed you'll have to change the https:// address.

 

An SSL address can NEVER be 127.0.0.1 or localhost.

Thanks. I do believe this is the problem, however, it seems the problem still exist. Is there anything else I have to do? Do you recommend a clean install? Or anything else.....

Also check your settings in catalog/admin/includes/configure.php, and check to see if you have a folder called 'local' with an alternative configure.php file in it.

 

Is your local server set up to respond to '127.0.0.1' or to 'localhost' ?

Post your catalog/admin/includes/configure.php and catalog/includes/configure.php here (take away the database name, username/password) and we'll have a look for you. Or you can reinstall it again if you want, which might give you a chance to learn more.
