Moving from Linux to Windows

[callman]

I have a client that has the zencart installed on a Linux box and they are moving to use for hosting which is a Windows box. I have got the store to come up and the admin but I cant get the links to work. I believe this is due to the htaccess mod_rewrites which is done in Linux and not Windows. How do I get this issue fixed?






Thanks

Zen Cart doesn't do any mod-rewrites by default. There is nothing in the code to use them.

There are some addins which use mod_rewrite. To disable their use, you'll need to read up on how to reconfigure them in the readme's that go with them.

Can you explain this in more detail?

Sure if you go to http://216.27.73.150 the links on the left do not work. This is new to me I thought this was all part of the Zencart. I know there is a htacess file that controls the links but i thought it was all part of the cart install.

That's a result of the SEFU module they've installed which relies on mod_rewrite support.
Turning it off should solve the problem. You might find settings for it in a SEFU group under Admin->Configuration

Is that through the Admin section? I have looked there and didnt see anything SEFU? What does SEFU stand for?

it stands for search engin friendly urls

it should be in the admin-> configuration I believe under store

There is no such settings under admin>configuration>my store

that was my best guess,
there are about 5 of these modules floating around,
your gonna need to find the switch

as chris said this is not something core to zen cart, you might need to find out from client what they added

What would I look for to try and find the switch? These modules are they in folders, file format, etc.. I have been looking through som eof the code and cant seem to find any thing with SEFU. Thanks for you help!
