Zombie2000 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Hello OSc'ers For an installation of a SEO contrib I need to put 'Search Engine Safe URL's' on True. I have always had this on false but when I'am switching this option to True I get an error when clicking on a catagorie or a product. This is the error I get: Error! Unable to determine the page link! My webhost provider uses this software: HTTP Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) PHP Version: 4.3.11 (Zend: 1.3.0) Does anybody know how to fix this?

Using Graphical Infoboxes which only changes the stylsheet.css and boxes, which I completly removed, then reinstalled them because it made no difference. Tried it with my original boxes, and no stylsheet and it still did the same thing. http://clickbv.com/newoscomm/ I have been trying changing things for 2 days now.

Paul2102 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 This is what I found so far: If I take my column_left.php file: ------------------------------------------ /* $Id: column_left.php,v 1.15 2003/07/01 14:34:54 hpdl Exp $ osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions http://www.oscommerce.com Copyright © 2003 osCommerce Released under the GNU General Public License */ if ((USE_CACHE == 'true') && empty($SID)) { echo tep_cache_categories_box(); } else { include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'categories.php'); } if ((USE_CACHE == 'true') && empty($SID)) { echo tep_cache_manufacturers_box(); } else { include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturers.php'); } ------------------------------------------------------- Comment out the cache commands for categories and change include to require: ------------------------------------------------------- /* $Id: column_left.php,v 1.15 2003/07/01 14:34:54 hpdl Exp $ osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions http://www.oscommerce.com Copyright © 2003 osCommerce Released under the GNU General Public License */ /* if ((USE_CACHE == 'true') && empty($SID)) { echo tep_cache_categories_box(); } else { */ require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'categories.php'); // } if ((USE_CACHE == 'true') && empty($SID)) { echo tep_cache_manufacturers_box(); } else { include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturers.php'); } -------------------------------------------------------- Then it works. If no one can find any other solution, I may just leave it like this. I guess it is the same as if I had cache set to false for categories only. Thanks, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredriksk Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Hello all! I have tried to installed this module 3 times now but I always end up with the same error when I try to browse my categories. the error is as follows: ---- 8< ------- Fatal error: Call to undefined function: read_cache() in /var/www/dinvvsbutik/www/includes/classes/url_rewrite.php on line 157 ---------------- Im running a OSC 2.2 MS2 with the STS module installed.

Paul2102 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Devilry- I found the problem. Disregard my last post on this thread. Here is what has happened.. The Graphical Infoboxes made changes to the categories.php file version 1.23, the latest OSCOMM categories.php file is 1.25. I made the same changes I found in Graphical Infoboxes categories.php 1.23 to the new 1.25 file, and it works!!

plus766 Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Ok, I need help. I tried to uninstall and came up with the error Cannot instantiate non-existent class: url_rewrite in includes/functions/html_output.php on line 68 I finally got my site back up by redoing everything, but now, when you click on a category it changes the url in the heading, but doesn't change the page. I'm too tired right now to mess with it anymore, but can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong in UNISTALLING it? I love the concept, but I had my shop working so well, I hate to mess it up anymore.

Guest Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 I love this contribution, I really love the idea behind it. Thanks to Hilton, got it installed and mostley running. I highly recomend hilton for anyone needing help with this contribution. Now, for the problem i'm haveing... My drop down navigation menu works great, but, My menu tree is looping the subcatagories. Example Cat A Sub Cat 1,2,3 Cat B Sub Cat 1,2,3 If I click A2 I will see A1 If I click B I will see my index page, If I click B3 I may see B1 or A1 it just loops back to a page no matter what sub cat I click. Does anyone know what would cause that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoni008 Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 I got the contribution to work but i have a couple of questions 1) my category for the jewelry part of the store comes up like this: www.mysite.com/category21/index.html it should say: www.mysite.com/jewelry/index.html How can i fix this? and ... 2) how can i put Meta Tags in each file? thanks Yoni PS: If your getting a 403 error and you have your site on high security, put this code at the top of your .htaccess file: Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch this will make it work.

leecook_999 Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 (edited) ok..i just disabled force cookie use and it appears OK. Very odd.

dahui Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Hello community since days I am struggeling to install a SEO Url contribution. I tried about all off the major ones min. 3 times each (including SEF Url Support), none did really work out of the box like description and YES I am one of those copy-paste newbies that bother the freaks here far too much. But I think I proceed and I try very hard believe me. 10-12 days ago I didn't have a clue about osC and php and since then, grace to this board, the result is a-multiple-over-night-and-all-day-long-24h work: The framework of my wifes new webshop! Not to spoil anyone, but SEF Url was even the first one tried, as I like the way the Url is "rewritten" with / much more than chemos respectable work. Here my setup and working process osc 2.2M2 single language single currency german tax contrib (just alters zones and taxes values in DB) Must Agree to Terms 2.2MS2v1.5.2 Print Order Receipt v1.4 Search_Box_Anywhere Site Map MS2 - 2.3 GoogleXMLSitemapv1.3 HeaderTagsController_V_2.5.3 (complete incl. adminpart) all this is runnig on identical images on apache2 with php4 and mysql A) local on a winxp sp2 machine with mod_rewrite working nicely B) suse 9.0 on a vhostserver (root rights) the local install is running NONSSL the online verison for the moment has an httpsdoc/ but not yet secured by my own certificate, I use the servers Plesk default cerificate whilest testing everything went nice so far even the HTC install was a nice 15 min. walkthrough, but when it comes to SEO I recognize my limits. everything I did I could develop locally and get it to run on the server but SEOs diddnt work right neither here nor there My questions: Is my setup ok for SEF Urls, will it work or does anything already straightly interferes ? I do not want to force cookies, is it just cosmetics for the url or absolutely necessary for SEF to run propperly? Cache the next prob, I cannot set it on XP dunno why tried a hell no chance. Cache seems to work on liveserver as osc admin says no error, but I do not find any files on my server??? strange enough. Changing cache from default osc configuration /tmp/ to anynything else leads to a no cache set error in admin panel??? and finally the old line 956 question for pasting as mentioned in manual Step #6 - In In /admin/includes/functions/general.php Before code } (around line 956) add this code @unlink(DIR_FS_CACHE . 'url.cache'); Note: This should be the at the end of the tep_reset_cache_block function I found previous threads on that but no other awnsers than what is said in the instruction, and obviously thats what I don't understand :( my lines (btw 977 - 1008 ) of the general php look like this: function tep_reset_cache_block($cache_block) { global $cache_blocks; for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($cache_blocks); $i<$n; $i++) { if ($cache_blocks[$i]['code'] == $cache_block) { if ($cache_blocks[$i]['multiple']) { if ($dir = @opendir(DIR_FS_CACHE)) { while ($cache_file = readdir($dir)) { $cached_file = $cache_blocks[$i]['file']; $languages = tep_get_languages(); for ($j=0, $k=sizeof($languages); $j<$k; $j++) { $cached_file_unlink = ereg_replace('-language', '-' . $languages[$j]['directory'], $cached_file); if (ereg('^' . $cached_file_unlink, $cache_file)) { @unlink(DIR_FS_CACHE . $cache_file); } } } closedir($dir); } } else { $cached_file = $cache_blocks[$i]['file']; $languages = tep_get_languages(); for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($languages); $i<$n; $i++) { $cached_file = ereg_replace('-language', '-' . $languages[$i]['directory'], $cached_file); @unlink(DIR_FS_CACHE . $cached_file); } } break; } } @unlink(DIR_FS_CACHE . 'url.cache'); // <======= right position ??? } if anyone could help, i would be really greatful, I dunno what to do anymor, right now I am sitting here since yesterday morning and if you don't believe it I send you a picture, or better not if it realy is peanuts for one of you, then I would like to provide ftp access and maybe call you simoultaneously to damn see what freaked and fooled me for ages thy in advance for all the future support on my issue dahui just in case, skype me : id "jumpfreak" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
