spikesonline Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 ok so I'm new to OSC but I think I've done well so far. One thing I can't figure out is why when I click on either "My Account" or "Checkout", I get a 404 Error (not found) and a Forbidden message. I've double checked that the access to these files are all set to have full permission. I've also made sure that these files are on the server. Somebody please tell me how to fix it.

choosealogin Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Those links are pointing to https:// pages (secure pages). My guess is one of two things you either have SSL enabled, but you don't have SSL OR you do have SSL and it's not configured correctly ok so I'm new to OSC but I think I've done well so far.

choosealogin Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 In catalog/includes/configure.php The third line down define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure? check and see if it's true or false there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did however find on the cpanel for the site that I can setup an SSL but I have no idea how that stuff works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choosealogin Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 (edited) What you see there on the cpanel is probably a set up for a self signed certificate which is not worth the trouble What error did you get, exactly?

choosealogin Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 do you have an htaccess file in your catalog directory? And if so, why? Such as, for the SEO urls contribution, or to turn 'register globals' on, etc ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choosealogin Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 I don't know if this will fix it, but try renaming it...to anything. See if that makes the error go away I do have one....but it was put there by the auto install from my host's cpanel...i haven't edited it.

See if that makes the error go away I tried deleting it and I still get the error. I even tried the links when the includes/configure.php was set to true and when it was set to false....same errors that I got before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choosealogin Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) If you don't have an SSL certificate, the line I quoted above in configure.php needs to be false. check both configure.php files (one in catalog/includes and one in catalog/admin/includes), and set SSL to false...then see where we are.

choosealogin Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Are any of the files (especially the ones causing errors) set to 777 permission? or are they 755? I'm about out of ideas :'( Might be time to contact your host. Or if you have access to the error log, see what it's logging. no dice...same errors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choosealogin Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 I just finally noticed something. On your internal server error page, it says contact ... webmaster@spikesonline.stellarreviews.com Where's the stellarreviews part coming from? Is that in your paths somewhere in your configure files?

choosealogin Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Ok, well...I didn't mean for you to set them to 777. Something I read indicated having them set that 'freely' might cause the 500 error. Put the permission settings back down :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put the permission settings back down :) Yeah i will set them back down...as for the stellarreviews thing...that's the original host name....but i setup an addon domain that references spikesonline.ca...i have all the locations of the files set up correctly i think....spikesonline.ca is setup to be a folder on stellarreviews...everything appears under spikesonline...
