Cannot find the page when I try to checkout.

[AMXDesign]

Here is the link to my store...

 

http://www.vcdstorage.com/store/

 

I can not figure out why this happens. You can add products, and everything, but once you try to checkout, it gives an error. The file exists where it is supposed to, if anyone has any ideas, this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Check your /includes/configure.php files.

 

Make sure you have the right address in there for the secure server. If you have two areas on your server 1 for regular documents and 1 for secure documents you need to put a copy of the catalog in both.

 

In the configure.php, if you are using $DOCUMENT_ROOT in your define statements, replace this with your real path instead.

 

Example:

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/octave/public_html');

 

If you are unsure what this setting should be, go into the Admin ... Tools ... Server Info ... and search for DOCUMENT_ROOT without the $

Thanks for the quick reply!

 

I was trying to get this up and running without using the secure server, just because this is on a client's server, and, I think their hosting plan has a shared server, and I am unsure exactly how that works. Could this be the problem? Is using a secure server necessary? Thanks again!

You do not have to use a secure server, but if you define one and there are no files there to be found, then it isn't going to work very well ... :shock:

[AMXDesign]

:) Very true, however, I am quite certain I did not define one, where can I be sure of this?

[AMXDesign]

When it tried to checkout, it does not go to a https:// page, so I assume it is not trying to access a secure server, correct?

 

I tried defining the path in the configure file, but, that did not work

[AMXDesign]

Can anyone help me please?

[Ajeh]

Maybe if you posted your /includes/configure.php file WITHOUT the passwords it would make it easier to see what's up.

[AMXDesign]

Here it is, thank you very much.

If anyone can help, I would appreciate it greatly! :D

Are you absolutely positive you have a file called:

 

/store/login.php

 

And it is written lowercase.

 

I can get to /store/logoff.php and various other pages when I type them manually. So it almost appears that this page is missing.

 

Try deleting the login.php from your server and reloading it for giggles and grins.

[AMXDesign]

You were right, the login file wasn't there, I have no idea why though. I thought it was looking for a different file, because that is the one it said it could not find? Oh well, it works now, thank you very much for all of your help, you have been awesome! :D

Sneaky little programs ... hate when they run off and break things like that ... :wink:

 

Glad that it is working for you now ... :D
