Help STS will not work

[stigc8]

I have added the required lines to configure.php and it breaks my store......I have seen others with my problem and on a system with older versions of Linux, Apache and PHP it worked fine.

 

Now on this system it won't....let me dig up the php specs PHP Version 4.2.2.

 

If it is something I've done wrong someone please tell me what it is and how to fix it :)

 

thanks so much :rolleyes:

do you have these defines in the catalog/includes/configure.php

 define('STS_START_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_start_capture.php');
define('STS_STOP_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_stop_capture.php'); 
define('STS_RESTART_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_restart_capture.php');
define('STS_TEMPLATE_DIR', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_templates/');
define('STS_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_template.html'); 
define('STS_DISPLAY_OUTPUT', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_display_output.php');
define('STS_USER_CODE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_user_code.php');

Yes, at the end of configure.php I have already added:

 

// STS: ADD: Define Simple Template System files

define('STS_START_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_start_capture.php');

define('STS_STOP_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_stop_capture.php');

define('STS_RESTART_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_restart_capture.php');

define('STS_TEMPLATE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_template.html');

define('STS_DISPLAY_OUTPUT', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_display_output.php');

// STS: EOADD

UPDATE:

 

I think everyone should be aware there is some dependency on how your environment is setup in the backend. I have succesfully mirrored this STS configuration in two different hosting environments on Linux/Apache........however, in this particular one for whatever reason it is not working.

 

I was able to confirm this by taking the same steps to configure and install osCommerce and STS on another server today without a problem.

 

Now the question would be.......what is the source of this problem? I suspect it is likely the php.ini file as no doc_root is set and other strange settings that our hosting company has made.

 

Can anyone suggest a solution?

 

Thanks

Ok I never noticed this until now......... note to everyone....

 

copy the code from the readme.txt ALWAYS. I just copied the code from Brian's original post and from the download page and didn't realize it's not the same as in the readme.txt

 

So, if you're having this problem don't assume that since you copied the code it is correct. copy the code below or from readme.txt

 

hopes it saves someone else many hours of time :)

// STS: ADD: Define Simple Template System files

define('STS_STOP_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_stop_capture.php');

define('STS_TEMPLATE_DIR', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_templates/');

define('STS_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_template.html');

define('STS_DISPLAY_OUTPUT', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_display_output.php');

define('STS_USER_CODE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_user_code.php');
