Issue with Domain Parking

[mindbender]

Hi Folks,

 

I am being told by our host that we cannot reassign two url's that come up in our address bar because they are hardcoded in the osCommerce installation.

 

Is there a way of adjusting this within osCommerce?

 

Apparently the osCommerce installation was set up under the old urls (www.airridersales.com, and www.airridersales.ca). We have a new site: www.cruisingear.com (& .ca). Although a redirect is taking place for the airridersales sites, when redirected the url in the address bar remains airridersales....we would like it to be cruisingear.

 

If someone can lead me to some support that can help me here, I would appreciate it.

 

Thanks,

 

Tom

If I understand correctly, then you need to edit catalog/includes/configure.php and catalog/admin/includes/configure.php

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.yournewsite.com'); // eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.yournewsite.com/catalog');

define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', ''); // If you are using SSL

 

etc...

Apologies Vger,

 

This is the same problem, but the information that I now have is leading me to a different question due to the specifics that I have mentioned. Therefore, I posted this seeking a different answer for the same problem. It is no longer the issue with a 301 redirect, but whether or not this can be altered in osCommerce...and how to do it.

 

No disrespect intended.
