Hi,

thanks for the reply below is the link we see when hovering over the buy it now button for a particular product, only thing that changes between the buy it now buttons is the product id number

http://192.168.1.68/catalog/clothing-months-c-27_31?cPath=27_31&sort=2a&action=buy_now&products_id=85

This is on our local testing shop as we have not gone live yet.

Sue

Well that is very odd the uri should be ..
http://192.168.1.68/catalog/index.php/clothing-months-c-27_31?cPath=27_31&sort=2a&action=buy_now&products_id=85

Could you turn on the debugger and post here the seo urls producted please.

You haven't run the database installer .. please read the instructions.

[a12c4magic]

My apoligies have now run the database installer and have set AllowOveride set to all, however it breaks the whole shop and gives an error, so have disabled it for now and will take another look later on.

Well thank you for the valuable debug information (however it breaks the whole shop and gives an error) that level of error reporting will help everyone I'm sure

Given that you haven't followed the instructions I'll assume this is user error until reported otherwise.

From what you stated before I would assume that it works fine with standard seo urls but not with rewrite .. this means .. quite simply .. the server settings are incorrect.

Occasionally on some server set ups you have to comment out a line in .htaccess

I'm, sorry I can not even use the excuse I'm blond because I'm not.


Using rewrite I get an error as soon as I click on any of the categories

with rewrite:
seo urls:

http://192.168.1.68/catalog/accessories-c-25.html

Using standard I can click on any of the categories and only get the error when I click on a buy it now button.

with standard:
seo urls:

http://192.168.1.68/catalog/accessories-c-25?cPath=25&sort=2a&action=buy_now&products_id=60

Error code on both: Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server. The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author of that page about the error.

I will try commenting out

Options +FollowSymLinks

and let you know what happens

*fingers crossed I have given enough information this time and not tried your patience too much*

Sue I'm only too happy to help but I need the debug information.

Rewrite urls:

If you are on a *nix server and the rewrite urls are not working .. either ..

1) The server is not set up for rewrites (mod_rewrite/AllowOverride)

2) or you have the RewriteBase incorrect (in your case RewriteBase /catalog/)

Non rewrite:

http://192.168.1.68/catalog/accessories-c-25 is just wrong it should be ..
http://192.168.1.68/catalog/index.php/accessories-c-25

I haven't a clue why it is doing this .. I asked if you could turn on debugging in admin and post here the seo url results (at the bottom of the page)

If in my previous post I was reporting the errors wrong then you might have to give me up as a lost cause, because I have tried to understand and follow what you have asked of me.
I did turn the debugging on and the only url was the one in the address bar. At the bottom of the page it just said done and gave the error message as previously stated.

However if you are asking what the url is when I hover over a categorie then
with rewrite it is:

http://192.168.1.68/catalog/accessories-c-25.html

with standard:

http://192.168.1.68/catalog/accessories-c-25.html

however when I click on the categorie then I get the error message but there is no url at the bottom of the page

Hi i have STS installed in my shop so in catalog/includes/footer.php i have this code at the bottom:

<?php
  }
  // START STS 4.1
}
// END STS 4.1
?>

Can you please tell me how to put in this code correctly to my footer.php?

<?php 
  } 
  // ULTIMATE Seo Urls 5 by FWR Media 
  usu::performance(); 
?>

Thanks in advance!

[Solan]

Problem solved:

<?php
  }
  // START STS 4.1
}
// END STS 4.1

// ULTIMATE Seo Urls 5 by FWR Media 
  usu::performance(); 
?>

Thanks "You-kno-who-you-are"

I now saw that i in the bottom of my customer area have this warning text:

Warning: file_put_contents(/home/xxx/public_htmlincludes/modules/ultimate_seo_urls5/cache/2_usucache.cache) [function.file-put-contents]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/xxx/public_html/includes/modules/ultimate_seo_urls5/classes/Usu_Cache_FileSystem.php on line 35

is that because i havent done all of the installation yet? or is something wrong already?

includes/configure.php

DIR_FS_CATALOG should have a trailing /

So ..

/home/xxx/public_html/

You seem to have ..

/home/xxx/public_html

It is always nice when someone "bothers" to post a solution in order to help others, hopefully this will help all STS users.

Me again,

1. i had installed this contrib http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/5851 v 3.1.4 before installing your contrib.. And now it seems that all of my former work with the first contrib not shows in my titles and so on..

I havent yet installd the Traditional Rewrite Type URIs but i intend to do so.. i just want to go easy with my contribs, afraid of give my side major problems *lol*

Is there any changes i have to do to make my two contribs work together?

2. I also now have links that look like this: www.xxx.se/index.php/barn-c-3?osCsid=317a2723479caf6ae2e432b599024961

i guess the osCsid=317a2723479caf6ae2e432b599024961 shouldnt be there?

3. Im swedish so we have å, ä, ö in our alphabet, is it theese i should put in the "Enter special character conversions"?
If thats the case i think it should be like this:

å=>&aring,ä=>&auml,ö=>&ouml

Thanks

Re: character conversions there is a file in the package ..

character_conversion_pack/swedish.php

Add your conversions to the array in the file .. like 'å' => 'a'

catalog/includes/modules/ultimate_seo_urls5/includes/character_conversion

A note of warning the file name must be the same as your languages file so if your language file is swedish.php then it is fine .. if your language file is svenska you need to change the filename to svenska.php

The array looks like ..

  $char_convert = array('å' => '', 'ä' => '', 'ö' =>'',
						'Å' => '', 'Ä' => '', 'Ö' => '');

If you do this you can ignore admin settings .. you can also add similar files for other languages e.g. Norwegian, Danish etc

Edited by FWR Media, 07 June 2009, 12:04.

[Solan]

thanks here is the code for swedish

$char_convert = array('å' => '&aring', 'ä' => '&auml', 'ö' => '&ouml',
						'Å' => '&Aring', 'Ä' => '&Auml', 'Ö' => '&Ouml');

Strange, before i did that change my link was like this:

http:// www.xx.se/index.php/skovård-tillbehör-c33?osCsid=317a2723479caf6ae2e432b599024961

And after adding that file the link is like this:

http:// www.xxx.se/index.php/skovaringrd-tillbehoumlr-c-33?osCsid=317a2723479caf6ae2e432b599024961

is that really right?

No

The character conversion should be ..

special character => latin character

Like the example I gave above.

'å' => 'a' or 'å' => 'aa' or whatever it may be

Below is a Danish conversion: -

  $char_convert = array('æ' => 'ae', 'ø' => 'oe', 'å' =>'aa',
						'Æ' => 'AE', 'Ø' => 'OE', 'Å' => 'AA', 'ä' => 'a',);

Edited by FWR Media, 07 June 2009, 15:02.

[Solan]

Then this would be right for swedish (i hope) *lol*

$char_convert = array('å' => 'a', 'ä' => 'a', 'ö' =>'o',
						'Å' => 'A', 'Ä' => 'A', 'Ö' => 'O');

I´ve uploaded it to my server, but my links still look the same as before.. with the first change i made What am i doing wrong?

By the way i think the turkish code is like this:

$char_convert = array('Ğ'=>'g', 'ğ'=>'g', 'Ü'=>'u', 'ü'=>'u', 'Ş'=>'s', 'ş'=>'s', 'İ'=>'i', 'ı'=>'i', 'Ö'=>'o', 'ö'=>'o', 'Ç'=>'c', 'ç'=>'c',);

Try resetting the cache

[Solan]

I´m not familiar with the reset cache function but i found 3 alternatives in my cache area:
categorie box
manufacture box
also-ordered-modul

i pressed the recycle buttons but nothings change so i wnt to my ftp program and manually erasied all of the files in my /tmp/ folder.
Nothing changed.. still the same link..


EDIT...

i now saw the reset cache function in this modul

Everything looks just fine now.. *handing you a flower*
