Wrong URL...

[micro007]

This problem started when I put the site live. This is my second Zen Cart and this one is done exactly the same as the previous one. Which works perfectly at the same hosting company with no URL issues. I basically installed Zen Cart on the server added a couple of addons and redid the graphics. Configured all the necessary files per the template instructions and added HTML redirects to point to the sub-domain of the parent directory which is setup through the CP Panel of my hosting company. So I have an HTML Redirect and a CP Panel URL redirect that dumps you right from http://www.blackwidowarms.com to https://store.blackwidowarms.com this works perfectly in all browsers. I've ensured that the configure.php is as follows -

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://store.blackwidowarms.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://store.blackwidowarms.com');

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

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/content/**/*******/html/store/');

If you get to https://store.blackwidowarms.com from anywhere then click on a link within the website it takes you to my main account domain and then mydomain.com/store which is where the files for zen cart sit. No secured link or anything. I've talked to the hosting company and they have no clue! Please tell me I don't have to gut and start over.... everything works and things can be ordered. My entire domain has a SSL cert so I'm not worried about that. I just need the links to show his business! I haven't done too much database programming but I can get in there if anyone thinks that this might be where the problems is. Any help would be appreciated.....

Do you have a .htaccess file in the root of one or both your stores?

I'm not sure, been so long since I've messed with that stuff. There's a .htaccess file in the includes directory but not in the root.

That's cool, that's how it should be.
So do you have redirects set-up through your hosting account?

Yes, I have the regular domain and the subdomain on my server and the redirects go through the CP at the hosting company from http://www.blackwidowarms.com to https://store.blackwidowarms.com and then I also put a html redirect in the http://www.blackwidowarms.com root like this -

<script type="text/javascript">
            window.location.href = "https://store.blackwidowarms.com"
</script>
<script language=JavaScript> var message="Function Disabled!"; function clickIE4(){ if (event.button==2){ alert(message); return false; } } function clickNS4(e){ if (document.layers||document.getElementById&&!document.all){ if (e.which==2||e.which==3){ alert(message); return false; } } } if (document.layers){ document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN); document.onmousedown=clickNS4; } else if (document.all&&!document.getElementById){ document.onmousedown=clickIE4; } document.oncontextmenu=new Function("alert(message);return false") </script>

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center" vspace="0">
  <tr>
    <td><img src="images/drop_logo.png" width="275" height="520" vspace="0" hspace="0" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><center><font color="#CCCCCC">If you are not redirected automatically,<br />please click this <a href='https://store.blackwidowarms.com'><font color="#FF0000">link</font></a>.</font></center></td>
  </tr>
</table>

I think it might be in the database of the zen cart somewhere. Because, I get to where it needs to go https://store.blackwidowarms.com and then when you click on the links it shows the URL of the main domain for the account.

I just noticed as well that I can only get into the backend by going to mydomain/store/admindirectory..... if this helps?

[micro007]

I noticed this in the Zen Cart, which I can now only get to if I type my domain/store and admin directory, "server information" under -

session.cookie_domain .maindomain.com

Local value shows maindomain

Should this be the case?

[micro007]

Also I noticed that the server name is -

_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]	maindomain.com

Not the blackwidowarms.com or store.blackwidowarms.com. Also I noticed that -

_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]	http://maindomain.com/store/admindirectory/

Not the blackwidowarms.com or store.blackwidowarms.com. Also this -

_SERVER["DOMAIN_NAME"]	maindomain.com

Not the blackwidowarms.com or store.blackwidowarms.com. Not sure just reaching at this point that it might be in the database somewhere and that it might be in one spot that is pointing everything to maindomain/store instead of https://store.blackwidowarms.com......

I lost the only person who would give me guidance?????

[micro007]

Okay, after much haggling with different people at my hosting company they now know to listen to the customer a little more and believe he may know more than them..... The domain had dropped from my domains tab which shows all domains under me whether they are hosted or "dns only", which made it shift over to mydomain/store so I had to add it again and then give the new domain controller addresses to the domain name registrar, I know it was the server that dropped them because I had already given two domain controller addresses to the registrar. Boo-yeah! Yeah as simple as that! Told them it was on their end....
