Problem with Sales Channel


Duffy73

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I just made a clean installation (several clean installations) in a folder of my website , but can't set up a new sales channel. All it doe's is show me a blank page in preview. I changed none of the installation values. The problem occurs either setting up a new channel or copying an existing one. What's going wrong, can anybody give me a hint?

Do you create a new theme ? If yes you must create a symslink on your root server to the new theme

In this case you can not use osC. But you only chance is to affect an existing design (origin) to your new channel. No tested, I do not know if it's possible.

Else you must change and take another hosting.

Maybe the osc team can give more information about that.

do I get something wrong? I've created a new channel, no new design, an that doesn't work. I also copied an existing demo channel, doesn't work either. the demo channel works perfectly. I don't want/need a new design....

Old or new it's not th problem, the problem you must create a symslink on your server.

Please wait the answer come from the team. You will have a confirmation or not about that.

Please also make sure that your host allows to use rewrite rules in .htaccess file.

  1.  Apache module "mod_rewrite" should be enabled by host.
  2. "AllowOverride" directive should be set to "All" by host in the Apache VirtualHost configuration.

By default Apache directives AllowOverride and AllowOverrideList are set to "None", and in this case  .htaccess files are completely ignored.

Still not working, sorry. There is no virtual host section in my .htaccess.
I can't understand the problem: during installation, the demo sales channels are set up by the install script perfectly. I don't understand, why another new sales channel can't be set up automatically in the correct way. Be it as it is, I'll stop trying osCommerce and give it up. It seems to me that it's not the right software for me.

Thank you for trying!

Hello,

It should be checked in the Apache configuration (on the server level), and not in .htaccess (user level).

I have no root access, so I can't check my apache config. Anyway, that's not logical. During installation, the system can set up sales channels correctly; then why not from inside the admin dashboard?

But please don't spend any more thought on it, I'm trying another ecommerce solution.

Osc is not very recommended to use on mutual server specifically if if you not access to a console.

Indeed, if you want to create a new theme, you need to know to create  a symslink.

Also if you can not customize your apache, php it's worst. You can try with an htaccess but in your case, if i understand well, you have just a simple access. I recommend you to change for another hosting. Your problems will be resolved.

try this, o2switch.fr

@Ivan Holbi please add an article to Wiki on how to add a Sales Channel that would automatically create a link on the server to it. Thanks!

Hi,

At the moment it is impossible to add a sales channel that would automatically create a link on the server. We are working on this development so as soon as it is available we will let you know.

Please see the link below with the article explaining how to proceed with adding a new sales channel now.

https://wiki.oscommerce.com/index.php?title=Adding_New_Sales_Channel

Best regards,

Ivan
