Thank you for the reply. .htaccess is:

## BEGIN CEON URI MAPPING REWRITE RULE

RewriteEngine On

# ONLY rewrite URIs beginning with /onlinestore/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/onlinestore/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-z]{2,5}$ [NC]
# Don't rewrite any URIs for some, popular specific file format extensions,
# which are not covered by main file extension condition above
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(mp3|mp4|h264)$ [NC]
# Don't rewrite any URIs for some specific file format extensions,
# which are not covered by main file extension condition above
# Uncomment the following line to apply this condition! (Remove the # at the start of the next line)
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(3gp|3g2|h261|h263|mj2|mjp2|mp4v|mpg4|m1v|m2v|m4u|f4v|m4v|3dml)$ [NC]
# Don't rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/adminxxxxxxx [NC]
# Don't rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/editors/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite modules directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/modules/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite languages directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/languages/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite min directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/min/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite cgi-bin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/cgi\-bin/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite cron directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/cron/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite sitemap directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/sitemap/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite templates directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/templates/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite bmz_cache directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/bmz_cache/ [NC]
# Don't rewrite logs directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/onlinestore/logs/ [NC]
# Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (its index.php)
RewriteRule .* /onlinestore/index.php [QSA,L]

## END CEON URI MAPPING REWRITE RULE

I didn't change anything from the example Rewrite rule.
The .htaccess is located in the root while the store is inside /onlinestore
There is no other rewrites active.
new files uploaded properly together with the modified core files and the template overrides. TIA.

Can you provide all the content from .htaccess?
In the meanwhile, are you sure tha mod_rwrit i active? If not sur, add this to the beining of .htaccess: RewriteEngine On

If the request made earlier to provide the contents of the .htaccess (without the identification of the admin directory) is what was provided above then one can see that the rewriteengine statement is included. Another area that could be a problem/cause might be in the includes/configure.php file. What are the settings for HTTP_SERVER, HTTPS_SERVER, ENABLE_SSL, DIR_WS_CATALOG, and DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG?

You don't need to provide the actual url (ie could be replaced with www.mydomain dot com or something if desired), but do need to see the general construct with slashes, etc...

Another question... Do you have an .htaccess file in your onlinestore directory? And before I get pounced, I know the instructions for installing CEON URI Rewriter state to incorporate the provided .htaccess file into the root directory and that the provided information is not to go into the sub-directory in which the store is installed (when a store is installed into a sub-directory). I am also aware that ZC does not require a .htaccess file to be located within the base of the store. It is all of these things though that could also lead to a problem if not properly managed, and so am trying to ascertain the current status.

BTW, I haven't seen that it would be an issue per se, but the RewriteRule, perhaps change it slightly?

Code:

---

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /onlinestore/index.php [QSA,L]

---

By adding the ^( and )$ around the .*?

Im trying to get CEON URL working with Multi-language SEO URLs (http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1717).
By adding:

RewriteRule ^(en|es)/.* index.php [QSA,L]

to the htaccess file ("en" for english and "es" for spanish) the index pages seems to be working fine but all other pages gets a "Page not found error". I suspect the reason is that "Multi-language SEO URLs" adds the "en" and "es" directories to the URL like this:

www.mywebsite.com/en/
www.mywebsite.com/es/

Is there a way to add a rule in htaccess to solve this problem? Or would the code in the CEON module need to be modified?

Not to be rude or awnry, why would you want to use a uri rewriter to rewrite in or to a foreign language when a uri rewriter already handles foreign/multiple languages? This. uri rewriter can even handle uris written as shown in the above examples if they previously existed with the applicable en or es folder prefix. Further the instructions do identify that using two rewriters is highly not advised/are likely not to work together.

The "Multi-language SEO URLs" module by itself does not do what you mention, as far as I understand. Only if I also install the "Ultimate SEO URLs" plugin as mentioned in the install instructions for the "Multi-language SEO URLs" module it will re-write the URLs. I like the "CEON URL" module better than the "Ultimate SEO URLs" plugin, that's why I would like to get it working with that instead.

Well, though the thing is that the CEON module already is multi-language, so what is there to get to work with it?

Saying that the module adds on en or es or whatever two letter abbreviaition to the uri is a uri rewriter. Therefore, having that plus CEON URI rewriter is having two rewriters...

If it is desired to have some sort of language identifying information in the uri, then it would just need to be added to part of the uri construct for the product(s)/category(ies).

I see your point. I think my situation is special because I have 2 domains, one for each language (on same server), for example:

www.site.co.uk
www.site.dk

In my htaccess file I then redirect each language to the correct site:

#danish to dk site
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.|)site\.dk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ index.php?&language=da [R=301,L]

#english to co.uk site
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.|)site\.co\.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ index.php?&language=en [R=301,L]

I have found that this redirection is not working with the CEON module but it works fine with the Multilanguage SEO module, so I was trying to combine the two. However I guess a better approach would be to get the redirection code working with the CEON module instead. Any ideas?
