lbowman Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 Hey I went to my store (which I just installed so it's not live yet thank goodness) and I tried to go to create user account and login links to make sure everything is working and when I click these links it takes me to a 404 error file not found page - why is this and how do I fix this. My store is not installed on my root directory it is in a subdirectory b/c my site will consist of more than just my store does this have anything to do with it. Somebody please help/
mattwhy Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 I've got the same problem. Grateful if someone would reply to this! :-)
♥Vger Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 The most common cause of this is installing osCommerce with the box to enable ssl ticked - when you don't have an ssl certificate. So, if those links are https links then you need to edit both configure.php files so that enable_ssl is set to false. Vger
mattwhy Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 both configure.php files? I've found configure.php in admin/includes. Is there another one? Thanks.
mattwhy Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Thanks it works! :-) However, I now get a message in pink at the top of the page: Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/africand/public_html/shop/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file. Is there a solution for this without having to get an SSL certificate?
♥Vger Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 It's nothing to do with ssl. Now that the install is completed you need to reset the configure.php files to 'Read Only'. That'll either be 644, or 444 or 400 depending on your server. Vger
