Remove index.php when browsing back to main page

[Telcontar 0]

Hello peeps,

 

Need a "little" help.

My oscommerce is playing a trick. When I load it initially everything goes fine.

As soon as I reload the "Home" the contents of the 'Categories' and the 'Manufacturers' change from the contents of my DB to 'www.dishop.com'.

I tried almost everything, including some tips from this topic. But am missing something.

Does anyone has a good lead?

 

Cheers

The lead of the day is that you are on a shared server and you are getting your /tmp directory mixed up with another site on the same server. Rename the /tmp directory and it should work. Or ask your host to set things up properly.

Here is my htaccess file, it does the front end:

Thanks Peter! That was very helpful :D :rolleyes:

I've adjusted my files to point out all links to www.mydomain/mydir/ instead of www. mydomain/mydir/index.php

 

Becaus I'm on a Windows server I can't use the .htaccess method to redirect.

I already redirect (301) mydomain/ to www.mydomain/ with a php script in application_top.

 

Now I want to redirect www. mydomain/mydir/index.php to www. mydomain/mydir/.

Everything after /index.php ( like '?cName' and so on) should keep the index.php.

 

Could someone please help me with a 301 redirect php script (in index.php or application_top?) to achieve this?

 

TIA

Can I just check that this following bit of code:

 

# Eliminates duplicate home page i.e.: www.domain.com/index.php and www.domain.com appear as duplicate home page

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/

RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.put_your_domain_here.com/ [R=301,L]

 

Is the only bit that's actually needed to solve this problem?

For anyone who reads this thread, there is a much easier way to change what's in the breadcrumb and make sure index.php is not shown n the home page's url.

 

Just need to comment out one line. See here http://forums.oscommerce.com/topic/40896-faq-how-to-remove-top-from-the-breadcrumb-trai/
