I just set up a new 1.5.8 ZenCart for an author. After battling with the MySQL Database Wizard for nearly half an hour, I finally got everything set up, and now I can access his new shopping cart.

Twitch:
Thank you very much for your reply. The server does have SSL activated, but I don't know what statements need to be added to which .htaccess files. So yes, I could definitely use your...
Someone? Anyone? Please??
By bypassing the sandbox page and going directly to the production page, I managed to get four of our six ZenCart sites to accept the application IDs and access tokens, though I kept having to...
Still waiting for a reply...does anyone have any ideas??
Okay, but we didn't mess with those things in any of the other carts, and we definitely haven't messed with it in this one. Upgrading should have fixed the problem since it did with the other carts,...
So does anyone have any idea why four other shopping carts are behaving properly, but this newest one isn't?
MC:
Thanks very much for looking into this for me!
We have several Zen shopping carts in use. Our other carts can handle these characters without a problem. I'm trying to copy the information...
Hello? Did my last two queries get lost in a freak wormhole in hyperspace? ;-)
I tested quotes, and they're displaying wrong, too. " is showing up as €œ on Firefox and Chrome. :-/
The smart quotes issue is the whole reason why I upgraded. Can someone please tell me why...
I have two more questions, and I most sincerely hope they're the last ones I'll have to ask about this shopping cart!
I thought version 1.5.6 was supposed to correct "smart" characters like...
I did clear my Chrome cache, but it didn't help. The entire interface is still messed up.
The timer thing was my own stupid fault...I didn't see the field that says "ignore the timer" a few lines...
MC, you were right! It works fine (I can't say I really like the new look of it, but I expect I'll get used to it in time) in Firefox. Now why on earth would Firefox display it correctly when...
I knew I shouldn't have removed you yet. :-/ I'm happy to give you access again if you want.
I thought I copied that section, too. Yes, it's there.
/**

This is what the admin-xx\includes\configure.php file has to say:
/**
* Enter the domain for your storefront URL.
* Enter a separate SSL URL in HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER if your store supports...
I'll look at the configure.php files and see what they say. I don't think we have https:// so I'll make sure everything says http://
There are no Edit buttons whatsoever. They simply don't...
...AND there's no way to edit existing entries, either. What gives???
One last question (I hope):
Is the directory structure supposed to be a long hard-to-read list down the left side of the screen instead of drop-down menus along the top like before? If not,...
Someone PM'd me and offered to troubleshoot the code. I don't know what he did, but he got it working. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! to everyone who responded and tried to help this pitiful php moron, but...
To be perfectly honest, I don't really know what I'm looking at. I'm not a programmer; I'm just an author who was pressed into the job because I know more than anyone else around here. Which isn't...
I'd already read that, but to be honest it's not telling me anything useful. I had over 100 entries in the shopping cart so the tables shouldn't be empty unless the upgrade process destroyed them,...
I edited the two configure.php files and re-uploaded them, and now the error message is back to "ERROR 0071: There appears to be a problem with the database. Maintenance is required." So at least...
Am I going to have to blow away all the work I've done and start fresh with a clean installation? :-/
I changed the password for the database, and now instead of being able to load up www://earcandyaudiobooks.com/studio/admin-blah blah blah, now it defaults to...
There is a /admin-xx/includes/local folder, but the only thing inside is skip_version_check.ini.
There is no /includes/local subdirectory.
I'm looking at phpMyAdmin for that particular...
No, I'm getting the same error message on http://earcandyaudiobooks.com/studio/ as http://earcandyaudiobooks.com/studio/admin-1538838053/login.php?:
ERROR 0071: There appears to be a problem with...
Yes, they're both exactly the same.
Yes, I see that, too. But it's the newest log file, and a different error message than I was getting before.
Okay, I did that and uploaded the file, then changed it back. Thanks for that.
Now I'm getting this error message: ERROR 0071: There appears to be a problem with the database. Maintenance is...
The CHMOD on /includes/ is 755. Do I need to change that...and then change it back?
The good news is, I was able to find and modify both of those files. The bad news is, I keep getting an error when I try to upload the /includes file.
CuteFTP (or maybe the server) won't allow me...
I haven't touched anything in the configure.php file. I touch the php files as little as possible because I never have understood php, and I never will.
Under admin-1538838053, there are only...

No, I followed the instructions in the docs folder included with the upgrade zip.
I knew upgrading would be a disaster!!

Trust me, it's worth being out of compliance (for whatever difference that really makes) for the convenience of not having to log in again all the time...and redo all the work I was doing...because...
This is a perfect example of how "smart quotes" (quotations and other punctuation that aren't pure ASCII) display using the Preston Elite template on version 1.51:
€œHello?€ she called,...
Previous carts I've created have recognized "smart" characters and displayed them properly on the finished webpages. Also there was one version that allowed me to bypass the 15 minute timeout, which...
Good news! Someone at HostGator FINALLY deigned to help us, and sent me this message which I'm forwarding in case it can help anyone else suffering the same problem:
The 500 error seen when...
Torvista, you said some files need some minor changes. Which files, and what changes? We looked at the error logs folder, but the only thing listed was that one of our sites experienced about 15...
Just wanted to update you on the .htaccess issue. Mike found the problem: The older version of Apache wasn't case-sensitive. Now it apparently is. Once he changed "Require User" to "Require user"...
Hi, DrByte! The .htaccess files I'm referring to are actually on different sites that don't have zencarts on them. Mike's working on them right now using the information lat9 sent me earlier...he...
Thank you, lat9. I passed that link on to my hubby, who will hopefully know what to do with it. I hope that will fix the problems we've been having on the other sites.
It's a mess, all right, and made worse by the fact that I'm not a programmer or a developer. I'm an author who happens to have built some zencarts in the past, so I agreed to help my best friend...
HostGator did break a whole bunch of sites totally unrelated to this one, and they admitted it. Everything that uses an .htaccess file no longer functioned, so all the .htaccess files had to be...
I tried updating the Ear Candy zencart to 1.5.6, but nothing's changed. I don't know if it worked or failed, but the cart is still showing a 500 Internal Server Error.
When I went into our...
Lat9:
Thanks for your quick answer. My hubby is a Unix/C++ programmer...I'll pass on what you said because he'll understand it better than I do. ;-)
Yes, we're using 1.5.1. Silly of me, but...
Hostgator has upgraded our server from EasyApache3 to EasyApache4, and I've spent the last two weeks trying to get them to fix whatever they broke in the process for our newest website, which went...
Design75, have you had a chance to look at this yet? I figured you were busy with the holidays and all, but hopefully now we can get together and discuss the project. Thanks!
