What's wrong with my config file?

[zareen]

This is an insane question, but what is wrong with my configure.php file? It doesn't have cookie paths defined? I didn't install this, so I don't know where it came from. I think I'm the current version. My files say: Copyright © 2003 osCommerce.

There are 2 configure.php files. One for Admin and one for Catalog. You are looking at the Admin one which does not use the cookie defines.

Thanks Henry.

Unfortunately for me. This is the file located in spincraftpatterns.com/includes. And I have an identical one in spincraftpatterns.com/admin/includes. No wonder things work strangely!

 

What can I do? Can I just pick up a new one from a clean download, fill in the blanks and upload it? I'm afraid I'll crash my site which (strangely enough) is up and running.

[bluepony]

Yes, that would be the best way. I tried your site and since it is not using cookies, the session id is carried throughout the pages. Normally the session id only appears once and then it is stored in a cookie.

 

Here is the default one for the catalog/includes/configure.php. Just fill in the blanks using your admin/includes/configure.php as a guide:
