admin configure.php question

jgarite · March 16, 2008

I was having troubles initially with the image upload for a product, after i configured the configure.php file below, it was working...that was nice for a while. Now i am trying to use the Additional Images Module and I'm getting the following error:

Error Image ../imagesdiamond_in_the_ruff_c-shape_bed_with_Chelsea.jpg was not uploaded. Please check your folder permissions.
Error Image ../imagesdiamond_in_the_ruff_c-shape_bed_with_Chelsea.jpg was not uploaded. Please check your folder permissions.

Error Image ../imagesdiamond_in_the_ruff_c-shape_bed_with_Chelsea.jpg was not uploaded. Please check your folder permissions.

There is no such folder as that is a merge of the foldername and the filename...there is already a slash after the images name in the config...

Can anyone help me out?

here is my configure.php in the admin area:

try adding a / to the end of images on the on the following line

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'images');

to give

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'images/');

Another newbie here with linking problems. None of the links work for my categories or pictures that are linked. I tried following the list in the pinned or sticky section, but they still do not work.

Do I need the catalog/ after the domain name or /catalog/ before some of the other sources if the store in in the catalog directory under the main part of the site?

Also, where can you change the colors of the solid lines, like right under the header? What file is that in?

Thanks,

Rob

OK, I added that and the links do not work. Is there a better thread detailing the changes I need to make to this? What about the database at the bottom? I am sure it's not stopping the links, but what do I do with it?

The store index is under the "catalog" folder. I'll read anything, I just can not find out what to read on here. Also, what the best PHP book for a beginner?

Try removing the trailing / to give

// WS = Webserver (virtual)
 define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.mysite.com'); // eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost should not be NULL for productive servers

I removed the / behind the address and the links all still fail

The store page

box25 · March 17, 2008

change the following two lines

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

to

 define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.mysite.com');
 define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.mysite.com');

admin/includes/configure.php

This is a direct paste from the file after I changed it like you said, except for the mysite change. The links do not work. Is there something else to try?

  define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.mysite.com'); // eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost should not be NULL for productive servers
 define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.mysite.com');
 define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.mysite');

if you are changing admin/includes/configure.php you are changing the wrong file ;)

you need to make the changes in include/configure.php

I actually have my self setup as a customer and says page not found when I log in, the search function does not work. Nothing works.

Do I need newer downloads, start over? The links never worked from the beginning after i deleted the old catagories for the demo store.

You know it's nice they provide all this to you, but a little directions on how to configure it would be nice. IXwebhosting and osCommerce both drop it in front of you and say "there is is" and I am just supposed to know. A little tutorial would be nice. I usually don't search things and I did on this and found nothing. The one pinned directions I did find had some wrongs paths in it too, making the frustration set in faster.

Perhaps you could post in The one pinned directions to point out the errors?

Change to the following

I did that and it's still all screwed up. I deleted the temporary categories they had from the admin panel and they never worked after that when I created the new ones. I figured I would learn PHP, some, and it would all be easy later. Now nothing works the categories, member login, search function. I know I'm new at this but I did not change much at all.

I am considering saving the changes to my header file to a word document and uploading the blank files from the beginning and starting over

Right just tried your site again, and if you enter the url as normal with ? & = etc the pages display, so try turning the search engine friendly urls of and see if that cures it.

I don't know how to do that. :blush:

Is there a file I can reload to fix the categories? Then edit that? Once I deleted the first ones and made new ones they never worked again.

Is there a user manual some where that covers most of this? I don't mind reading them. I just feel like a damn lost kid.

Log into admin system, goto configuration->my store and about half way down the page, look for

Use Search-Engine Safe URLs (still in development)

click on this, then select edit, and set to false

then try store again.
