catalog/admin

[Rob is Busy]

Everything I've installed works.

 

http://www.robsdesign.com/catalog <---works

http://www.robsdesign.com/catalog/admin <---works

 

However, the links in the admin don't go anywhere but to 404 error. I've spent a while looking for the answer, but nothing seemed to help me out.

 

This is what my config.php file looks like. Can somebody tell me what I've done wrong? I did not rename any folders.

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.robsdesign.com'); // eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost should not be NULL for productive servers

  define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', '');

  define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', '');

  define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'false'); // secure webserver for catalog module

  define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)

  define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/');

  define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_ADMIN);

  define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

  define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_CATALOG);

Hello-

 

Have you checked your file permissions? Sounds like that could be the issue. I know that's what happened to me.

[241]

Maybe define your catalog server

 

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', '');

and possibly define your absolute paths

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)

[Rob is Busy]

I completely missed the catalog server. Well... it's in and still doesn't work. Those variable are all correct for the absolute paths. I didn't move them anywhere else. Hmmmmm......... :huh:

[241]

I would use absolute paths for these

  define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)
 define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_ADMIN);
 define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_CATALOG);

 

define the absolute path along this lines

 

 

/usr/local/apache/htdocs

 

so that you have something along these lines

  define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/catalog/');
define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/catalog/admin/');
 define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/catalog/');

[Rob is Busy]

Well, I set the paths this time, but now it seems I have a security error on configure.php. Ugh, I need to fix that also. Anyway, that didn't didn't work either. Other ideas?

 

('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog'); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)
 define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog/admin/');
 define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog');
 define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

[241]

I overlooked this one

 define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'true');

change this to

 define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql');

in both catalog/includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php

[Rob is Busy]

That change didn't seem to make any difference. I've got the same errors.

[241]

what are your permissions set to

 

just re read your earlier post

 

('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog'); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)
define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog/admin/');
define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

should be

('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog'); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)
define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/catalog/admin/');
define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog/admin');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

[241]

take another look at my earlier post then your reply, you did not make the correct changes

 

Post your configure.php file as it stands xxx out the database info and I will correct it for you

[Rob is Busy]

You're a genious, thank you sir.

[Rob is Busy]

New problems arise. :(

 

Warning on my catalog page:

 

Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file.

 

Is that actually in the file, or is that file permissions as in chmod? I tried changing chmod from 644 to 755 and back again, but the error still stands. If it's something in the file, I don't know what else to change for it.

 

Warning at http://www.robsdesign.com/catalog/admin/ca...ed_box=catalog:

 

Error: Catalog images directory does not exist: /homepages/36/d93231069/htdocs/catalog/catalog/images/

 

I've tried going into the configure.php and removing random 'catalog's from the file and replacing them with the root directory. lol... that didn't work.

 

Finally, that admin page doesn't seem to secure, shouldn't there be a way to password protect that feature? I didn't spend too much time looking for it. I can't get these errors gone yet. One problem leads to another it seems. :ph34r:

[Guest]

I'm having a similar problem on my site, http://www.madab-il.com/catalog/ : The index page loads, but most other pages don't. I got the admins' configuration to work, but can't gwt this one streight.

here's what I have in my configure.php:

// Define the webserver and path parameters

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)

// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)

  define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.madab-il.com/'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.madab-il.com/'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

  define('ENABLE_SSL', true); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

  define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'http://www.madab-il.com/');

  define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'https://www.madab-il.com/');

  define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '');

  define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '');

  define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', 'catalog/');

  define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', 'catalog/');

  define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

  define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');

  define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', 'catalog/');

  define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');

  define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');

 

If any of you kind soals would help me out, I'd be eternally grateful!

Try chmod 444 read only for the configure.php

[Guest]

Steve, do you have any idea what mey be the problem with my site?

 

Clicking on a products' image, directs to a URL such as http://www.madab-il.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/25 , which is clearly mistaken. But even if I correct it to be cPath=25, it still doesn't work.

 

Any clue?

I have changed most of the file for you except this part

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', 'catalog/');

which should be an absolute path like /home/user/public_html/catalog/

post both your configure.php files xxx out the database info as you still have a path wrong

[Guest]

I just realised, that the only pages that don't load are such that are meant to display product information - I'm suspecting it's a database configuration problem.

Here's my config, if any of you can help me out with it...

 

// define our database connection

  define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

  define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', '***');

  define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '***');

  define('DB_DATABASE', '***');

  define('USE_PCONNECT', 'true'); // use persistent connections?

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

 

I realise it's mostly ***ed out, but there is a connection, so I don't know where else to look. Is it possible I somehow renamed one of the tables? if so, what should I be looking for?

I know I'm messed up now. lol I have the same configure.php in my includes and admin/includes folders. >_< But below is what I'm using in both. Which is probably the source of all my nightmares....

Ok, I got my admin config fixed. I tried to make it look like Ethan's, but mine doesn't work. Incorrect path again. o_O

So I guess I had mixed up my config files. I had my admin/includes in my includes, and vice versa. Well, it still doesn't work. I'll check it again when I get back from class. I kinda rushed through it putting it back up.

[241]

The files should be correct based on the information given, however I cannot account for miss typed or files placed in the wrong place. I do try to give simple clear instruction and in this case it is a straight forward backup the files then copy and paste the code as far as just before the database information
