External Link to products page not working

Recommended Posts

I recently installed security pro.I don't know if this had anything to do with the problem or not.When I link to a products external link in the products page and test it in the preview page everything works fine it links me to the external web site. I save it to the catalog and check and it does not redirect me to the external link but just loops me back to the index.php page. Any help will be greatly appreciated

You have to add redirect.php to the exclusion list in your Admin (under Security PRO) to get that link to work.

At this time there is not an exclusion list nor is there a (Security Pro) in the admin folder.

There is only security.php in catalog admin//includes/functions/ folder

How do I go about creating the exclusion list.

Have no idea what I am doing but I can follow instructions.

Thank you very much for your help

You said you installed security pro, therefore check in your Admin, under Configuration for FWR Security PRO. There will be 3 keys there, one of them being the exclusions list. Enter redirect.php there.

Thank you again for your help

I have checked as you suggested there is only an enable FWR Security Pro button which I have set at true. There is not 3 keys.

Any other suggestions. Is this possibly a bad installation.

Thanks

It must be if you only have the 1 key. There is a support thread for this contribution, but I remember the uninstall.sql file had an uppercase error in it. Did you perhaps try to run that? Here it is with the correct case.

 

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_ON';

DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'FWR Security Pro';

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_FILE_EXCLUSIONS_ON';

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_FILE_EXCLUSIONS';

 

You can try this, and then run the database settings again. PS: Always backup before making changes.

I have added your files to the uninstall script. There was only two lines in the old script.

I added the files you supplied and deleted the old files I then saved the uninstall script.

It now reads.

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_ON';

DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'FWR Security Pro';

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_FILE_EXCLUSIONS_ON';

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_FILE_EXCLUSIONS';

 

Where do I run the uninstall script from? Do I ftp to the catalog folder?

I know this sounds stupid but it is all new to me.

 

The original instructions that came with the FWR didn't mention this or supply any instructions

for uninstalling the security pro or correcting any errors.

Thank you

This is what is in the original SQL

 

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_ON';

DELETE FROM configuration_GROUP WHERE configuration_group_title = 'FWR Security Pro';

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_FILE_EXCLUSIONS_ON';

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'FWR_SECURITY_PRO_FILE_EXCLUSIONS';

 

It gives an error because configuration_GROUP should be configuration_group

 

You run this in phpMyAdmin which you normally access via your host control panel.

I am pretty sure I know what you are telling me.I have gone into phpMyAdmin and looked at the

files you are telling me to delete.I haven't done anything yet,I am going to study this a little

more before I make a move. I'm really to tired to do anymore today I'll probably wait until tomorrow.

After I remove these files I think I'm supposed to run the install again.

I think to remove I check the box next to the file and click drop.

 

Thank you for your time and help

I have reinstalled the Security Pro and now I do have 3keys instead of just 1 in the Admin FWR I

have entered in the exclude key....redirect.php. Now the problem is that I am receiving this message

 

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at /home/barondiamonds-www/catalog/includes/application_top.php:1) in /home/barondiamonds-www/catalog/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 102

 

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/barondiamonds-www/catalog/includes/application_top.php:1) in /home/barondiamonds-www/catalog/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 102

 

Any idea why?? Or how to fix

 

Thanks
