Add on domain store = no images. Config = ok

[makenoiz]

1.5.1 New store, No products, No mods. Yes, I have read all the other posts that have been made but none solve my issue.

I have created an add on domain called myaddondomain.com (theoretical) to my main account mymainaccount.com. DNS has been changed and is revolving correctly. All image files are loaded to to the server. My config files appear to be fine however there arent any images showing ( not even the default ZC banner) in the front end nor back end of myaddondomain.com. In Firebug, I can see the image on the server (weird). Also I can load the image that are missing by placing using a direct link to them like this:

http://myaddondomain.com/images/logo.gif

I have installed ZC 1.5.1 in a sub directory called myaddondir so path to the add on store is /home/mymainaccount/public_html/myaddondir/

My config files are listed below. I dont see any problems with them. Can you spot anything that would keep the images in the add on store from appearing?

Thank you for any help...

A correction


define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

not


define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/myaddondir/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/myaddondir/');


By the way, if I access the add on store through my main domain like this: www.mymainaccount.com/myaddondir, All the images appear without any problems.



Thank you

Are you sure about this??
Did zc_install create this or did you manually edit this?

Also

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/myaddondir/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/myaddondir/');

Should probably be

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

I created the add on account, server created the add on directory. I manually edited the ZC config files to accommodate the the new directory. Would that not be the correct path for an add on directory? Let me know what you think it should be and Ill try it.

Also

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/myaddondir/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/myaddondir/');

Should probably be

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

Yes, I think our posts crossed. That was a typo in my post. I do have

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

in the config files...

Sorry about that...

Thanks for checking it out...

[kobra]

Most will be as this versus what you have

/home/public_html/myaddondir

[makenoiz]

hmmm, that didnt do it. Now I get the new installation page.... Thanks for trying ~!

[kobra]

hmmm, that didnt do it

Copy/upload ZenCart to the directory & run install
ZC will create correct configure.php files
You can then import a Database if needed & upgrade if from an older version

[makenoiz]

Will do thanks again.. Will post outcome.

Fresh install and same thing. I removed the following hotinking code from my htaccess and viola ! Images! I was hotlinking to myself ;) Keep in mind that this .htaccess file is located in the main domains root not the add ons root.

## dissallow hotlinking
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?mymainaccount.com [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif)$ - [NC,F,L]

Strange considering my addon has its own domain and I should be pulling images from that domains directory but I suppose, logically the add on domain is still considered part of mymainaccount.com by apache...!~

Problem solved.

[makenoiz]

So if anyone runs into this, this is the anti hotlinking code to use if you are using an add on domain (replace the domain names with yours! )

## dissallow hotlinking
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?mymainaccount.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?myaddonaccount.com [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif)$ - [NC,F,L]

Otherwise, your addon domain store will not display images.....
