How do you change the directory for zen?

[bfwdesigns]

It worked! I had the includes/classes/phpBB.php and rename it to all lower case and it worked!! THANK YOU!

Hi there,
Can anyone help me on this one. I currently have a working zencart in a sub-directory called shop/

The Client now wants the site moved to the root. I have followed this thread step by step and I have also got to the following fatal error page
"Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: notifier in /home2/ins58917/public_html/includes/autoload_func.php on line 79"

But in my case the file in includes>classes> called 'class.phpbb.php' is correct and in lowercase.

You can see this error by going to http://www.instyleseating.com.au/

and you can see the site running correctly in http://www.instyleseating.com.au/shop/

Obviously, in my case, I made a copy of my 'shop" files and then copied them all to the root - just in case I made a mistake and still needed my working 'shop' doirectory -which I do.

Can anyone help me here and shed any light on what I may have done incorrectly?

Thanks
Markov

See kobra's post (#2) and my post (#3) above for details.
Your configure.php appears to be pointing to the wrong place.

Hi DrByte, Thanks for the quick reply.
Here are my configs files

includes/configure.php ..................

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.instyleseating.com.au');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.instyleseating.com.au');

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

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home2/ins58917/public_html');

define('SQL_CACHE_METHOD', 'none');
define('DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE', '/home2/ins58917/public_html/cache');

admin/includes/configure.php ..................

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.instyleseating.com.au');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.instyleseating.com.au');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.instyleseating.com.au');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.instyleseating.com.au');

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', 'admin/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', 'admin/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/home2/ins58917/public_html/admin/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home2/ins58917/public_html');

define('SQL_CACHE_METHOD', 'none');
define('DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE', '/home2/ins58917/public_html/cache');


Are these incorrect?

Thanks

[DrByte]

These should start and end with a /, not just end with one:

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', 'admin/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', 'admin/');

As for configure.php files, you can simply follow the pattern in the dist-configure.php files.

But that's not the real problem.

If it cannot process classes properly, then it's not able to load the class files from /includes/classes. Thus, you have either missed copying files or you've introduced a permissions problem.


I always "move" the folder, rather than copy it and ending up with duplicates and uncertainties of whether things are loading from the right place or not. But that's just me.

Thanks Dr Byte,
I have changes to /admin/ etc.
I am embarassed to say I had the wrong password on the database.

Working at last. Thanks for your help - much appreciated.

Hi Dr Byte or Whoever wants to reply to this - can anyone point me in a definitive explanation of directory structures.
i.e. I often get confused when I should use a forward slash - or when I shouldn't.

Thus what does /admin/ mean as opposed to 'admin/'? I have often had problems in these areas - another example would be when I want to go to the root of a directory whilst I am in a sub-directory.
For example - I kind of know that ../mydirectory takes me down one directory (i think?) - so lets say I was 2 directories down and I wanted to go to the root - would that be ../../mydirectory? Or is there a quicker way? And can these .. be used in php coding?


I think you can see from example here that I am a bit dusty with all this. Any guidance would be good here.

Hello
I copied all the files in the root and did all the changes I needed in the configure.php files
No problem with ADMIN but I cannot see the CATALOG

Here is my include/config file

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

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/httpd/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs/');

define('SQL_CACHE_METHOD', 'none');
define('DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE', '/home/httpd/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs/cache');

I used my server to do the site and everything is fine, now my client want it on his server and I got this problem.

Any help please?
Thanks

Hello and thank u for your answer
I saw that page and it is what I did.
For everything OK on my server I meant that when I tryed to take off "zen-cart" from the URL everything was fine but not on this new server.

I can't even run the Fix Cache Key Utility, maybe a matter of permissions on the client server? 'cause I had already some kind of restrictions.

What I don't understand is that I had no problems with the ADMIN (mysite.com/admin) but with the catalog yes.

thanks again
Mario
