HELP!!! My Cart is empty

[Corshas]

There is something wrong with my ssl settings in my configure.php file. I am unable to checkout or add things to my cart when I am logged in. I have tried almost every combination that I can think of to resolve this.

 

I am on a shared SSL

Once again thank you for you time,

Scott

[Corshas]

I still have this problem.

 

 

Could some let me know what the problem with my configure.php is?

 

Could the problem be in the admin/configure.php?

 

Any help at will be greatly appreciated.

 

Scott

[Corshas]

Ok, So I have tried every combination that I can find on the message boards, Still the problem exsits. My Webpage

 

I have ccokies forced

 

I can open the site in HTTPS

 

I don't know what else to do

[melveile]

this is the error i get when trying to access your cart:

 

 

 

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /hsphere/local/home/scot0/corshas.com/catalog/includes/application_top.php:520) in /hsphere/local/home/scot0/corshas.com/catalog/includes/functions/general.php on line 29

[Corshas]

Yes I know I just screwed that up....

 

 

Any suggestions on how to fix that. I was placing google adsense on different files to see where Iloked it. when I got done I ahd done something in one of the file that I was in.

 

It has been one of those days.....

[melveile]

if you have a back up copy of your catalog, you can always reupload that

 

 

if you have too many errors and no back up, it might be faster to reinstall osCommerce (you can keep the images and css file, and you can back up the database through admin panel and just reupload it later on). But whatever you do, i would suggest to back everything right now as is, so that at least you can pick an choose files from this installation.

Check for blank lines at the end of your application_top.php file.

Jason,

 

Thanks for the help, I got it fixed.

 

 

I still have the original problem of the cart dumping when trying to check out or when I try log into my account.

 

 

I have talked to my service provider to make sure that I am using the correct path to the https server.

 

 

So any ideas at what to do next.

[Corshas]

Come on now... someone has to have the answer to this problem.....

[Corshas]

Ok...I am down to asking my dog Cheyenne for help. Figured that it couldn't hurt since she can find her bone no matter where I hide it. She suggested that I change

 

 define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'corshas.com');
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'corshas.hosting-advantage.com');

 

To

 

 define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'corshas.com');
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'corshas.com');

 

 

Sorry Cheyenne it didn't work.

 

As another work day begins, I ask this question does anybody have a fix for this problem.

 

My Webpage

[241]

try making your cookie paths /catalog/ and your FS_CATALOG change this to an absolute path

[Corshas]

Ok changed the cookies path to /catalog/

 

and changed the FS_CATALOG FROM

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_FILENAME']));

 

TO

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['http://corshas.com']));

 

If this is what you meant then it did not work.

[detsouvalas]

If this is what you meant then it did not work.

 

Well, I think that it should rather look like

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/your/way/to/oscommerce/directory/');

[Corshas]

ok.. so now it looks like this:

 

('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/hsphere/local/home/scot0/corshas.com/catalog/');

 

 

Still the same result.

[detsouvalas]

Have you tried if your shop works WITHOUT ssl??

[Corshas]

Have you tried if your shop works WITHOUT ssl?

 

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://corshas.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('HTTPS_SERVER', ''); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?
 define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'corshas.com');
 define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');
 define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');
 define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

 

Is this how I would try it without SSL? I also changed admin/configure

 

The site comes up in SSL when I try to check out and still dumps the cart.

[detsouvalas]

I would say that your shop doesn't generate any session id, I don't know if that's the problem, but I sounds logic ... no session id, no way of keeping track of users choises! I am facing the same problem with a test shop, after making some changes in the code ... I am still searching what went wrong!

[Corshas]

I am at a loss as what to do next. I spent the afternoon reading about sessions and Shared SSL. From what I could find it looks like the problem is with my shared SSL

 

For example, the force cookie usage implementation will work for the following servers:

 

http://www.domain-one.com

https://www.domain-one.com, or https://ssl.domain-one.com

 

but not for the following servers:

 

http://www.domain-one.com

https://ssl.hosting_provider.com/domain-one/

 

 

I have changed html_output to

 

// Add the session ID when moving from different HTTP and HTTPS servers, or when SID is defined

    if ( ($add_session_id == true) && ($session_started == true) && (SESSION_FORCE_COOKIE_USE == 'false')

 

And still the problem is the same.

 

SO the question remains the same does anyone have any advise for waht to do next.

[Guest]

I am having the same problem at the moment from a fresh installation

 

i did change session storage to mysql

 

AndiC

[T. Raven]

Turn force cookies off. i had a simulair problem...if not working let me know, we check some thingsd then

[Guest]

Many thanks for answering

 

I have cut and pasted the session details from admin and the /includes / configure.php file. Please note that the configure.php has been edited to remove domain names, user names and passwords.

 

also please note i have not got around to setting up SSL yet i am just trying to get the cart working first without it

 

Regards

 

Andrew

[T. Raven]

And what was the reason in your .htaccess ?
