sponna Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi Wondered if anyone could help as this has baffeled me. We have several stores all hosted on the same server. We had a php upgrade to php 5 last week (Mon) we had made preparations for this and had changes made and in place. Following the upgrade all was fine. Today I noticed that the site no longer displays properly (no images) in Internet explorer. Its fine in fire fox which seems to tolerate the no base href. On viewing the source I can see no base href is being written - but it worked in IE last week post the php5 upgrade??? Any ideas gratfully received one of the sites is www.aircon4less.co.uk Is this a php 5 issue? any clues appreciated. vee up the down escalator..........

germ Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Try this: Click me There is a minor code change detailed in the first post in that thread. That usually works. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

♥FWR Media Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Try this: Click me There is a minor code change detailed in the first post in that thread. That usually works. I don't think that link is a correct solution. I would do the following: - // set the type of request (secure or not) // $request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; // Replaced standard request type $request_type = (getenv('SERVER_PORT') == '443') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; // End replace Obviously based on a 443 SSL port but most are.

germ Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Robert!!! (w00t) Where'd you come up with that???? :unsure: I sure like that a whole lot better that the other way. I tested on my server, and it would work there, anyway... :thumbsup: If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

germ Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I could never figure out how the fix in the link I suggested ever worked. It was just something that someone tried that worked. On the other hand, Robert, your fix makes sense. I grovel in your shadow, O great one... :ph34r: ;) :lol: If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

sponna Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 Its not that I don't want to try - its just it looked trickier (remember you are talking to the designer type not coder type here) and the first one I tried does seem to work :) I will ask my more techy other half to try the other method in our test store when he gets back tomorrow. Once again can't thank you guys enough :) up the down escalator.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again can't thank you guys enough :) No Sponna you are quite right looking back I didn't explain it at all. I promise you can do it ok :) Follow the following instructions .. 1) Make a copy of the file catalog/includes/application_top.php (keep it safe somewhere) 2) Open the existing catalog/includes/application_top.php Find the line that says .. $request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; Replace that line with .. // set the type of request (secure or not) // $request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; // Replaced standard request type $request_type = (getenv('SERVER_PORT') == '443') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; // End replace That's it!!

sponna Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi I tried the second method on our demo store and congratulations it also worked http://www.veehosting.co.uk/catalog/index.php :) Hope that helped. I still have no idea why this suddenly arose today. Anyway thanks again up the down escalator.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xperience Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 go to includes/application_top.php and where it says $request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') try changing the "on" to "off". This also worked for me on three installations on one particular server. No other server is affected - any ideas why this has happened?!

I had recently upgraded my server to Apache 2.2 plus PHP 5 and several things were not working right. What was bugging me the most was that cookies were not always set properly and the oscid kept showing in the urls. Aslo some includes in the boxes that were turned on or off depending if it was SSL or not were always off. This change aboe FIXED ALL THE PROBLEMS Guess that the new Apache 2.2 plus PHP 5 did not like the code (getenv('HTTPS') Been trying to find the bug/problem for 3 days now and stumbled on this GREAT JOB!!!
