lost images

[pinbrook]

Hi

 

I know this question has been asked before, i've read the threads and tried the suggestions to no avail...so please take pity on me

 

my url is www.pinbrookdesigns.com

 

sometimes the images appear, sometimes they don't

 

my config file from /web/admin/includes

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters

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

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

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://81.3.94.163'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://81.3.94.163');

define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', '');

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

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/sites/www.pinbrookdesigns.com/web/'); // where the pages are located on the server

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/'); // absolute path required

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/home/sites/www.pinbrookdesigns.com/web/admin/'); // absolute pate required

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); // absolute path required

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/sites/www.pinbrookdesigns.com/web/'); // absolute path required

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

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

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');

define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');

define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');

define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');

define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');

define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'includes/languages/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_LANGUAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'includes/languages/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'images/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'includes/modules/');

define('DIR_FS_BACKUP', DIR_FS_ADMIN . 'backups/');

 

// define our database connection

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

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'xxx');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'xxx');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'pbd_osc');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persisstent connections?

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

?>

 

if I look at the properties of the missing image the url is http://www.pinbrookdesigns.com/images/ with no image name

 

and other times the url is http:///images/

 

i'm lost!

 

and thanks in advance

[pinbrook]

I don't appear to be alone in having problems with getting images to show....is there any help somewhere that i can refer to to help myself.

 

I've tried most of the ideas I can find in this forum with no luck...am now considering editting every php file to hardcode the BASEHREF . I would like to think that this is an over the top solution

 

any ideas please

[mattwho]

i think

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://81.3.94.163');

should be

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.pinbrookdesigns.com');

and

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://81.3.94.163');

should be

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.pinbrookdesigns.com');

 

I'm pretty new at this but hope that helps.

[pinbrook]

Thanks for the suggestion.....

 

but i have already changed the ip address back to the domain name - I still have the problem

 

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

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.pinbrookdesigns.com');

Did you make the change in both the admin/includes and /catalog/includes directories? There are two configure.php files.

[pinbrook]

this is catalog/includes

I'm closing this thread because i think my error is with easypopulate. So I've started another thread
