Help Shared Server issue (I think)

[Bernie199]

I've just set up osc over the last 3 days and was real pleased when I got paypalipn to work on the first attempt.

So just as I was set to got to bed I had a look at the shop to see all was ok when I clicked on the only category that actually has any products in and hey presto I'm now selling Adult toys and not the printer ink that I first put in my shop, I thought one of the mods I've installed must have hijacked my site but looking closer at the other site I found him only 2 ips away from mine can anyone shed any light on this because I'm at a total loss, (I did see that persistent connections can cause problems on shared hosting which I didn't enable)

 

mediastore.ibiz.uk.com/catalog/ << if anyone wants to try it and see if it does the same for them (don't laugh it?s my first go but my friends are impressed)

:unsure: :blink:

set sessions to mysql in the config files

 

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql'); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

This is actually the category cache is being saved in the same temp dir. You need to make a private temp dir instead of the server root

 

If you document root was

'home/virtual/mediastore/www/html/'

 

Then your temp dir should be.

'home/virtual/mediastore/www/tmp/'

 

instead of 'tmp/'

Change it for both cache and sessions.
