oscommerce migration problem

[ptholt]

I had an enforced migration from a host changing from dedicated direct admin server to virtual hypervm/kloxo, i had numerous issues trying to get osc working on this combination so instead bought dedicated hosting running on plesk 9 where i have an existing oscommerce store (all be it a very basic one) already running with no problem.

 

However after tarring/extracting and migrating the database, immediately under the categories menu box heading i have the following message in German indicating a file is missing -

Die angegebene Datei konnte nicht auf dem Server gefunden werden!

 

The files are there, the permissions set the same as they were on the old direct admin server.

I have checked the admin/includes/configure.php and includes/configure.php both are fine (and i have checked permissions and configure.php against the basic store already running on same server).

 

The only differences between the running basic one and this are the following contributions -

SEO urls

Ultra pics

Define mainpage

Extra pages info box

Scrolling product infoboxes

 

as the basic store works and this one does not, im assuming its one of the above mods. However when i first migrated to direct admin and the test on kloxo this side of things worked fine, so i am guessing some requirement from one of those mods is giving me problems but cant for the life of me establish which one or where to start looking as there are no errors on server logs, apache logs etc...

any help gratefully received.

is mod rewrite installed on your new server?

mod rewrite is a very good call, just need to check how i can establish whether its installed or not, off to google we go :)

Could you check the .htaccess file as should contain the following:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteBase /catalog/

RewriteRule ^(.*)-p-(.*).html$ product_info.php?products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^(.*)-c-(.*).html$ index.php?cPath=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^(.*)-m-([0-9]+).html$ index.php?manufacturers_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
