Guest Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Ok im going to be as informative as i can because last time i posted this nobody helped me. I installed a new oscommerce store and deleted the old one. The database was deleted too. So i made a new blank database and copied over the files from the old site EXCEPT admin/includes/configure.php and /includes/configure.php Everything runs comepletely fine EXCEPT the files at /includes/languages/english/images/buttons DO NOT DISPLAY. Instead they retain their links but have a blank box in place of the image that should be there. You can see an example of this HERE If anyone knows what is causing this i would love to know, i have spenmt the entire day reinstalling and scouring through php files and ihave no idea. Its driving me insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gscreations Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 odd one, looks like the path to the images is correct sounds silly i know but have you checked to see if the buttons are in that folder online? if they are then you know its a coding error rather than something simple suggest setting up a test page just displaying two buttons one image coded like osc does one image hard coded see if both/any appear then go from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No .htaccess files should be anywhere past the following location... catalog\includes\(.htaccess is here)languages\ Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy James Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 htaccess files are in other folders. I would check to be sure your catalog/includes/languages/english/images/buttons folder is there... or whichever language you are using Wendy James Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Yes they are all there, it points to the right place, the folder is there, the files are there, they sont have capitals in the wrong place NOTHING is wrong with them. There is a .htaccess file in my /includes folder but no deeper than that :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a .htaccess file in my /includes folder but no deeper than that :'( <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm not an expert but, with a direct link I can see this file: http://www.echophile.com/images/matrox/mg200mms.gif but I can't display this file: http://www.echophile.com/includes/language...ton_buy_now.gif The possible reasons for this behaviour are 2: there is an .htaccess file in that directory or above there aren't enough file permissions I suggest to download the site on your local Hdd, make a search and find all of the .htaccess and then check the file permissions on that folder (CHMOD) Bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 I just did a completely fresh install with a new database and it still has the same problem LOOK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 its not the dbase and possibly something with the restrictions you have on your site. (.htaccess or file permissions) make sure you have no server error when you try to access your pic link like this: http://www.echophile.com/includes/language...ton_reviews.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHP_Newb Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 In your Includes folder do you have a language directory? and english.php, sounds like they may be missing. In other words catalog/includes/languages/english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 ive contacted my netfirms about it, hopefuly they know whats causing it <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I had the same problem on my webserver caused by changing the server directory leavels, this then ment that that OSC was not pointing to the correct images folder. ie if you were to have this structure c:www/catalog/etc/etc and its working ok if you were to change it to say:- c:www/shop/catalog/etc/etc then i found i get this problem. hope this perhaps helps.

Guest Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 yes thats what i did. I moved it from /store/etc/etc to the root directory I deleted the old database and made a clean install though so i dont see why it should cause any problems do you know how to fix it?

Its driving me insane. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi, when I checked I got a parse error . But fromm other people comment I would lie to ask is Just right click on the image property and check whether the file it secifies and the path the images are match. If they do then check whether the images folder has permission to read or not. If that too is fine check whether other images if any are getting dispayed or not. Also just remove all htacess file for the time being. Also let the errors/ warnings be echoed so you dont miss on any wrong thing happening.
