julianpuje Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 THE COMMUNITY SHOULD NOW GO INTO OFFICIAL MOURNING :'( , AS THE "POWERS THAT BE" HAVE FINALLY MANAGED TO KILL OFF ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST KNOWLEDGABLE CONTRIBUTORS TO THIS FORUM. Not to mention the outstanding support, documentation & endless hours of work he obviously puts in. This is punishing the rest of the community who have benefitted greatly from Bobby's contributions and expertise. Not to mention the number of new users osCommerce have probably made because of such members, great contributions and support. Seems a bit of a loss all round including a big loss to osCommerce. Come on moderators, will we be getting an explanation as to why most of the BIG contributions will no longer be supported. Or will you be lifting his contributions aswell? <_< Excellent work Bobby, if you set up elsewhere let us know. Julian Quote A little knowledge is dangerous, I SHOULD KNOW.

hansmignon Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I hope this is temporarily and a mistake. I am using already some months chemo 's contribution and they work verry good and the support is perfekt. This is not good for this forum. About my problem with the script index.php it is solved; There was to mutch security on my files changed teh ensim setting and now it is working fine. Thanks Hans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willross Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 The loss of Chemo is big... but I am sure he will be found. Was this forum's IM being used by him before he was banned? If so, maybe there was 'inappropriate' dialog while in there (it is monitored). Or was it that he pushed Google services here (not really). As of yet, the Open-Source community lacks any real 'standardization' when it comes to programmer qualifications and support. So, losing someone like this is a setback for many... Come on, we have ALL seen bad advice and 'contributions' thrown around as science. Then again we have also seen greatness. Well, at any rate, I am setting up gForge at http://palaia.us/ and http://qwest.net/ and welcome him to continue there. I also plan on releasing an abstraction layer version of osC. Hopefully, all will be forgiven and we can move on. Quote · willross ·········· Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julianpuje Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Following on from my post above where my cron e:mail was a failure. I have updated my version of SEO URLs to the latest 2.1. Hoping that this met with the latest version of the Google XML Sitemap feed This however has now created a different problem where i get the following error when i enter the googlesitemap/index.php after my address. Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tep_get_parent_categories() in /home/julianp/public_html/includes/seo_cache.php on line 175 Has anybody had this error or know what could be wrong? the other addresses work for the cats/prods and index.xml Thanks Julian I see mesa had the same problem, but would removing this line be detrimental to anything else?

kitchenniche Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 My /googlesitemap/index.php is empty :'( Installed version 1 saturday and it worked. Saw the dateerror on google and therefore installed version 1.3 today. When entering /googlesitemap/index.php on my site I see nothing at all. Theres no err.msg's and the html rendered reads: I have exactly the same problem... You probably used Firefox. If i use firefox it's just an empty site, if i use internet explorer i get an error.

Fourbit Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Elkanario, I would agree with julianpuje. Did you follow this step in the directions? Upload the dummy files (the XML files) to your catalog directory. So, when you are done you should be able to call the files in your browser like this: If the store is in the document root: * domain.com/sitemapproducts.xml * domain.com/sitemapcategories.xml * domain.com/sitemapindex.xml Else if the store is in a directory: * domain.com/directory/sitemapproducts.xml * domain.com/directory/sitemapcategories.xml * domain.com/directory/sitemapindex.xml Once you have the dummy XML files uploaded you will need to make them wrtieable by the web server. The easiest way to do this is to start your favorite FTP client, right click the files, and change the permissions on each one. The correct settings will vary based on your server setup but generally speaking a setting of 777 or read, write, execute will work every time.

happydance Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 W :angry: I cannot believe that they can just ban someone when they have contributed so greatly to the OSCommerce cause. Unbelievable. :blush: I have a 'stupid' problem with this contribution... I am certain of it.. Please forgive my stupidity as I really just follow the contribs and know very little about how it all works. I am getting this error when I try to run googlesitemap/index.php on my site. Does anyone know what would be causing this? Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO) in /hsphere/local/home/happydan/myhappydance.com/includes/functions/database.php on line 19 Unable to connect to database server!

niknakgroup Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Help! I'm stuck! As Chemo isnt around to pester for help, im hoping someone else will sort me out! I have installed all as instructed, but when i go to catalog/googlesitemap/index.php I just get a blank page - no error message, just nothing. This happened to me with the old days on ultimate seo url's, all i had to do was comment out the cache('GLOBAL') line, then everything worked (to a point). I've tried doing that, still blank......?! Any ideas? Quote Please note - if I have suggested a contrib above, it doesnt mean it will work! Most of the contribs are not ones I've used, but may be useful for your particular problem.... Have you tried a refined search? Chances are your problem has already been dealt with elsewhere on the forums..... if (stumped == true) { return(square_one($start_over) } else { $random_query = tep_fetch_answer($forum_query) } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willross Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Chemo Here is a quick fix for SEF Lite users. It also adds the option to track your indexed links. Open the file 'sitemap.class.php' and... Find this on line 402: $location = $this->hrefLink(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $result['pID'], 'NONSSL', false); and replace it with: $location = $this->hrefLink('product' . $result['pID'] . FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'source=google', 'NONSSL', false); Then find this on line 447: $location = $this->hrefLink(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'cPath=' . $this->GetFullcPath($result['cID']), 'NONSSL', false); and replace it with: $location = $this->hrefLink('category' . $this->GetFullcPath($result['cID']) . FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'source=google', 'NONSSL', false); The 'source=google' is the optional tracking variable. I added it because this is an experimental program from Google and I want to keep tabs on it. You can change it to your liking or not. I hope this helps SEF users out there!
