yomama360 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Strange, so it must be a server setting somewhere. It's the same server, only thing we changed was the PHP version and it worked on PHP 5.3 but not 5.4. As far as I can tell mod_rewrite is enabled. Do you know what other settings need to be on? Thanks --------@@Tsimi The catalog is in the root of our public_html directory. My RewriteBase path is:RewriteBase /Anything else breaks it. Again, it works file like this if PHP version is 5.3Arigato gozaimashita -------------- Upon re-reading PHP.net makes the distinction that "call-time pass-by-reference" is deprecated. So apparently a parameter received by reference by a function is still ok.

James Turner Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Hi Jack, I installed Ultimate SEO V 2.2d on 2.3.4 using the bootstrap template and all was well. I have been using the different versions for years and they always worked perfectly. However, after adding Header Tags SEO the URL's will not work properly. I get the same url problem mentioned here in some other posts, it appears as -p-xx.html When I refresh the page the correct url appears, but revisiting the site after closing the browser and it is back to -p-xx.html. Google is also redirecting the correct links this-product-p-22.html with the 301 permanent redirect to the -p-xx.html link. Now all of my pages appear in Google results as -p-xx.html After searching for several days for an answer and testing every possible configuration, removing Options +FollowSymLinks from .htaccess, checking the rewrite base 100 times, installing and reinstalling both contributions, I just can't figure this out. Any ideas on what may be causing this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your support of these contributions and the community at large.

Jack_mcs Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 If it was working before Header Tags SEO was installed, then maybe you didn't run Fill Tags in HTS or you have the use header tags option set in this one and have not filled in the needed tags in HTS. No one has ever reported such a problem and I haven't seen it myself with all of the installations of the two I've done so it has to be something unique to your situation. You could try running the uninstall/install scripts for HTS to eliminate any settings changes you may have made.

After being reassured by you that you had experienced no conflicts with your install, I was sure the problem was with my install, and this was indeed the case. The code for 2.3.4 is different and in placing the code in application_top.php I had inserted it just before the correct line. I repeated this mistake many times for some reason, but after receiving your reply I went through each step MUCH more carefully and now everything works PERFECT! I sincerely apologize for troubling you with this, but your reply is certainly what helped me fix it, so I really appreciate your prompt reply and these awesome contributions. I am really happy to have found the Header Tags SEO, it works so much better and is so much easier than the previous hacks I created to accomplish this. Thanks Again Jack, the community is blessed to have a great contributor like you. Edited April 2, 2015 by James Turner videod 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♥Tsimi Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) Special Characters issueInstalled the latest version and just realized today that the special characters are not converted but just removed from the URL.As far I can recall with the older version Ultimate SEO 2-2.2d-13 and php 5.4 everything was running fine. This is what I have added: Ü=>Ue,ü=>ue,Ö=>Oe,ö=>oe,Ä=>Ae,ä=>ae,ß=>ss,é=>e,è=>e,à=>a,ù=>u,â=>a,ê=>e,î=>i,ô=>o,û=>u,ë=>e,ï=>i,ç=> Just out of curiosity I replaced the classes/seo.class.php file with the one from the Ultimate SEO 2-2.2d-13 package. Now the URL shows fine but the page won't load/show. Getting some sort of "The page isn't redirecting properly....bla bla bla" error. So is this php related or addon related?

♥Tsimi Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) Did a quick "local" install using XAMPP that runs php 5.5.19 characters didn't show at first either but after a SEO URLs Cache reset the converted characters show in the URL. Now that confuses me more,...what could cause something like this? local (XAMPP) running php 5.5.19 works and live server also running php 5.5.19 doesn't. Does it matter if database is MySQL is 5.0.95 or 5.6.21? Edited April 5, 2015 by Tsimi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Tsimi Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) Regarding my two posts above.... After tweaking for hours I finally found the problem. inside the seo.class.php file look for this code around line 1825 $string = iconv("ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8//TRANSLIT", $string); and replace with $string == iconv("ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8//TRANSLIT", $string); one small, stupid = was missing. That was all! <_< So if you out there have problems with special characters not showing inside the URL then try this fix. Don't know why but my local server (Windows) doesn't seem to bother if there is only 1 = or 2 == but the live server based on linux did bother.

♥Tsimi Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 lol just realized doing the above is same as deactivating the code completely. Adding double slashes // in front of it works too. This solution only works for my live server (linux). For my local server (XAMPP, windows based) it doesn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dallasbird Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Hello Jack, my site opens to mysite/oscommerce and not mysite/oscommerce/index.php which causes these errors (below). when inside the site and you hit catalog, site goes to index.php. I have checked includes/filenames and filename_default does read index.php. Is this something I need to change in my seo instal on.htaccess ?

Jack_mcs Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 It sounds like your shop is located in a sub-directory but you've made the .htaccess changes to the root directory. If that is not the case, please post your .htaccess and includes/configure.php file here. For the latter, don't include the last few lines that have the login details and you can X-out the domain name if you prefer.

Jack_mcs Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Remove the changes for this addon that you made to the roots .htaccess file. In the shops .htaccess file, change RewriteBase /oscommerce to RewriteBase /oscommerce/ Both the Options +FollowSymLinks and Options -MultiViews can cause problems with the rewrites. If you are still having problems after the above change, try removing them one at a time to see if that helps.

dallasbird Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Jack, I made those changes, but I am still getting errors when site opens to mysite/ocommerce instead of mysite/oscommerce/index.php. My site is also even slower now. Should I have my server change my settings to open my site with mysite/oscommerce/index.php? As I posted yesterday my root .htaccess uses this code to redirect to subdirectory: (my site is adult content) RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^couplescorner\.biz$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.couplescorner\.biz$ RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/couplescorner\.biz\/oscommerce" [R=301,L] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 The code in the roots .htaccess is correct. There shouldn't be any reason why the page won't work without the file name but it may have something to do with how your server is setup. Try adding this line to the top of the .htaccess file in the shops root to see if it helps.

dallasbird Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Jack, I got another suggestion from Mr. Phil - similar to yours: "It sounds like you might have a server misconfiguration, or garbage in your /.htaccess. In .htaccess, do you see a line for "DirectoryIndex"? Does it omit index.php? It should give the entire list of "index" files to look for if only the directory name is given. Usually it's something like DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php If that's not the case, maybe there's a bad or damaged URL rewrite in your .htaccess."
