jwalker Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Hello My site is currently www.ginelectronics.com/catalog . . . I want to change it to just www.ginelectronics.com . Then I want to run the SEO URL contribution. However, I don't know what needs to be done, nor does my ISP. I copied all the files from CATALOG directly into my root folder, but of course that was too simple. Is there a file that I need to update, or does my ISP have to do something? Or, is it just too late to do this with an existing site and database??? PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks In Advance JW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germ Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 A guide to the configure.php files Or how to move your site without breaking anything You're on a Windowz server. The SEO contributions use mod-rewrite in .htaccess files. As far as I know .htaccess files don't function on Windowz servers. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

jwalker Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 So there is nothing I can do to fix this warning I received while trying to run the contribution: "Warning: fopen(X:/domains/ginelectronics.com//admin/includes/functions/general.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in x:\domains\ginelectronics.com\admin\file_manager.php on line 51" I just have to leave my URLs as is???

germ Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 You can't use .htaccess files on Windowz servers. Any contribution relying them won't work for you. I've heard of something that simulates or replaces .htaccess in the Windowz world but can't remember what it was, where I saw it, or how good it really was. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.
