Admin Preview URL path

Path to admin product previews are:
http://bmz_cache/9/9cc6925ae4972e4af...ge.131x120.gif
But it should be http://sterlingleafjewelry.com/bmz_c...ge.131x120.gif

I'm on my knees asking for someone to point me in the right direction as to why my admin preview images are not showing while all of the test and store front images have the full and correct path to the bmz_cache folder.

All of the bmz_cache folders have rw permissions. I uninstalled and reinstalled, cleared the cache, deleted images and uploaded new.

HELP!

Once in a while an image wont display

Im sort of pulling my hair out. I use ez populate to load hundreds of products at a time, then ftp in the images I specified in the upload file.

Once in a while the image doesnt show on the store. I try to use IH2 specifically for this product and I get an error at the top of the page that says:

"Unable to upload default image file."

The product model number matches the image name exactly with all lower case. This seems to happen with about three out of every 100 products I import. Anyone run into this before?

Im using 1.3.8a and IH2.

Check your two configure.php files and make sure that you have your domain filled in for the defines for http server and http catalog server. (/admin/includes/configure.php)

Re: PHP 5.3 patch

A new PHP 5.3 patch has been released here:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=140960

I compared the files in the patch with WinMerge and found out that a file used by Image Handler is being modified in that patch:
html_output.php

So that file needs to be merged (I haven't done that yet).

In this other thread DrByte suggests that it is possible that PHP 5.3 may be incompatible with Image Handler and other modules:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...=140695&page=3

So probably it is necessary to test Image Handler on PHP 5.3 and verify that it works fine (my server does not have 5.3 yet)

That said, I was wondering if there is anyone that is using Image Handler successfully with PHP 5.3 and/or if anyone could kindly post a working version of a merged html_output.php file.

Thank you.

Re: PHP 5.3 patch

Just a suggestion you could use a tool like Beyond Compare or Winmerge to make the changes yourself... Both tools make the merging job VERY easy..

THAT was the right direction! Thank you! :clap:

PHP Code:

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

Please note the //, there should only be one forward slash.
I have NO idea how the extra forward slashes got there but all is well now. I can only guess that it could have been added during the migration to another server, because my configure.php.BAK does not have them.

Thanks again BH! :bigups:

Right, in fact as I mentioned in my post I used WinMerge to find out that that file has a conflict.

And merging that file does not appear easy at all, since I don't understand PHP.

If I figure out the merging, I will post it here. If someone else figures it out before me, please go ahead and post it first.

This will eventually affect ALL of us who are using Image Handler, since eventually most hosts will end up upgrading to 5.3...

You don't need to necessarily understand PHP to know how to do the merge.. My suggestion is this:

Treat the version 5.3 files as the master, then in Winmerge, look for the code that is NOT in the 5.3 version of the file that IS in the IH version. That code is what you want to merge into the 5.3 version of the file..

Now after that you will want to test your new file in PHP 5.3, if you get errors, then you will have a place to start.. You'd be amazed how quickly people respond to specific errors versus "possible" errors..:smile:

Sometimes it may be the fastest solution to approach it this way versus waiting for someone to post the corrected file..

FYI.. I don't know PHP either, but I understand "find and replace".. The changes required for PHP 5.3 compatibility seem fairly straightforward enough that you should be able to tackle it yourself.. Seriously..

Going back to this file, you would be looking at the IH2 specific code that you are merging and making sure that any of the changes required for PHP 5.3 compatibility are addressed..

Honestly, I wouldn't suggest this if I didn't think it was doable.. There's a link I posted onthew Zen 2.0 thread which takes you to the Google board which outlines the changes required for PHP 5.3 compatibility..

Re: PHP 5.3 patch

When I get the inspiration to tackle this I will report if I have success. My host does not have PHP 5.3 yet so...

Which Zen 2.0 thread are you referring to?

Thank you.
