images point to wrong place

[TriedAndTested]

Hi,

 

I moved the /catalog dir up a level so it can be accessed at domain.com rather than domain.com/catalog.

 

Admin still shows images ok but the front page no longer shows images.

I have changed the 2 config*.php files to change the references to catalog to ''

When I look at properties for a picture it gives one such image path as

http://domain.com/catalog/images/infobox/corner_left.gif

 

still referencing catalog!

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Billy

catalog/includes/configure.php

 

make sure the following lines look as these do ..

 

  define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
 define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');
 define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

Hi Robert,

 

Tried that, still no joy though.

 

my configure.php now looks like this , note domain.com isn't the real one.

 

hmm, it worked before I moved it up a level!

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)

// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)

define('HTTPS_SERVER', ''); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.domain.com');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');

PM me a site link

Ok the problem is the follwing .. view source to see it yourself ..

 

<base href="http://walkerspcs.co.uk/catalog/">

 

As it is http this is set by DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG in mysitecom/includes/configure.php

 

If you say that DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG is set as ..

 

 define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/');

 

Then I'm stumped as this just can't happen. Unless of course <base href="http://walkerspcs.co.uk/catalog/"> is hardcoded in your files .. e.g. index.php.

Thanks,

i've looked at index.php

I can't see it hardcoded anywhere.

 

Oscommerce was installed through my hosts "easy setup utility".

I know my host has a link on my control panel that points eShop at /catalog still, but they've told me that it can't be changed.

 

Other than that I can't think of anything.

I'll keep looking.

 

best regards,

Billy

This is a real shot in the dark, but check here:

 

/includes/local/configure.php

 

If that file exists, osC may be using info from it.

 

If it's there, see what it says...

Hi,

 

I found it!

Turns up in includes/local/configure.php.

You were right!

 

Thanks for all your help.

 

kind regards,

Nice catch germ, I've never come across that situation myself :thumbsup:

[germ]

Sometimes I get lucky.

:lol:

 

In application_top is says:

 

// Set the local configuration parameters - mainly for developers
 if (file_exists('includes/local/configure.php')) include('includes/local/configure.php');

So, anytime the normal configure files seem to be askew, it's good to go looking in the local folder...
