PC Configurator Module [Support Thread]

[Kim]

the zen_ prefix. Given that it is the default during installation of the Cart

This is no longer default. If you use the SQL patch tool in the admin it should add the pre-fix.

Oh. For some reason every time I try to use the SQL patch tool in ZC i get errors, so I do all my DB work from phpMyAdmin. If that is the case then disregard that comment.

However the Access Forbidden is still a problem.

As it seems, you are testing in localhost. Well I had some problems several times with .htaccess depending on the server.

Anyway, I do not know if your live server is the same with your local server.

First, try the following URL path to see if page loads

after index.php ADD : ?main_page=pc_configurator

Maybe it is something that I did not understand.

If the above is working, there is a good way to solve this problem

Test and post the result

[TrailorParkKid]

after index.php ADD : ?main_page=pc_configurator

That worked, what do I do to fix it?


This is what the path looks like when I try to get to it the normal way:

/localhost/livesite/%3C?php%20echo%20HTTP_SERVER;%20?%3E%3C?php%20echo%20DIR_WS_CATALOG;%20?%3Eindex .php?main_page=pc_configurator

the space in "pc_configurator" is not actually there, I just couldnt get rid of it in the quote.

Open folder pc_configurator , find the file "pc_configurator_table_construction_query.php"

and go to line # 117

There you will see the following :

action="'.HTTP_SERVER.''.DIR_WS_CATALOG.'index.php?main_page=pc_configurator_ste p_2"

Change it as following :

action="http://www.you_site_name.xxx/your_zen_catalog/index.php?main_page=pc_configurator_step_2"

I supose if you want to try in your localhost it will be :

action="http://localhost/livesite/index.php?main_page=pc_configurator_step_2"

or something like this.

Also you can try just this :

action="index.php?main_page=pc_configurator_step_2"

Then , go to category 28200 ( Custom PC ) . There you will find 2 links.

Change these links based on your needs, with the provided instructions above.

Also, I forgot (!!!) to include something in all my uploads :

You can download it below :

It is the tpl file for the sidebox. I have uploaded the language and the module file but not the tpl file.

File name is "tpl_pc_configurator_sidebox.php" (download it below) and you should put it in :

your_shop_directory/includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes/



The right way is to use zen redirect function as we already know the filename.

Forgive me, all of you, I should use zen redirect function, but this module is the first "BIG" I made and it is being developed.

Next version will be better !

I hope all the above to help you.

Please post the results here.

Also, it would be better, if you have enough space in your live server, to setup a zen cart there, for live testing, because many times there are some diferences in LAMP servers, depending on the edition of the components they use.

well, Charis you seem to forgot me... and my problems with your module.
I'm going to uninstall it, since its not working properly, and i did not get any help for this problem, and im calling for help in months!!!

So... if it isn't working porperly, better not have it at all.

Good luck for all.

Im glad for the configurator, but 2 months ago, I asked:

1). How do you change the look of the configuration page.

2). When you click product details it shows this:
ÌïíôÝëï: Casecom
ÂÜñïò ÄÝìáôïò: 2lbs
1 ÄéáèÝóéìá ôåìÜ÷éá

instead of this:
Brand: Casecom
Weight: 2lbs
Dano what this is though

http://cjnet.info/e/checkout/index.p...c_configurator
click on one then press "product details"

Please help

I have now fixed this!

But on step 2 I am getting åõñþ as my currency :S I changed this before, and uploaded a new file making me forget where it was.


EDIT: FOR ALL PEOPLE SAYING MY CONFIGURATOR DOESNT WORK, IT DOES NOT I HAVE FIXED THE GREEK EXCEPT ON STEP 2.

I GET THE ERROR "Infinity" on NET PRICE and "NaN" on TAX, becuase my tax is 0! I want to remove this from the page which is why, and looking in my last post for how you can edit the main page (which I think I have found now).

Explanation: Because tax is NaN, Net price (without TAX) is infinity, becuase... (x = total price)
x - NaN = ?

Like dividing 0 by 0 on a calculator, it's any number you want.


As soon as my configurator is perfectly finished, I will release a step by step video tutorial on installing the PC configurator. I will also release the code for the design (graphical), and write a step by step tutorial.

This is my way of contributing to lebrand2006, so he does not have to write a massive readme file.
This is my way of contributing to others, becuase lebrand2006 can spend more time on developing the code as a wider range, instead of just computers, instead of spending his time on the readme.


Thanks,
CJ
