"Error - Unable to determine the page link"

[wider]

Dear Colleagues,

 

I am suddenly receiving a strange error message whenever I open the cart or my account pages.

"Error - Unable to determine the page link"

 

Could anybody let me know where I need to fix this and which parameter might be faulty?

 

Thanks loads,

German

Your website host has probably upgraded PHP to the latest version which would cause the error as the latest version has

 

register_globals off

 

To use OsC, register_globals *must* be on...what this means is;

 

- ask you webhost to set register_globals on in php.ini

- if they won't do that then find another host ASAP

Apparently, that was not the case.

 

globals is set to on on my server.

Have you checked this in the admin tool / tools / Server info???

Hi Sparky,

 

no my techsupport told me so.

 

But the Server Info reads:

Not that I can read much out of this...

 

BUT: I've changed the $search_engine_safe = true to false in html_output.php:

function tep_href_link($page = '', $parameters = '', $connection = 'NONSSL', $add_session_id = true, $search_engine_safe = false) {

 

The it was working again. (wich is fine, BUT it used to work yesterday and the weeks before with exactly the setting $search_engine_safe = true.

The only thing that has changed since yesterday were a couple of httos-server related entries in configure.php and a few new product.

 

I'm really grateful for your help!
