Media Manager clips broken -- using CEON URI Mapping

[gradyscott]

Sure: You'll have to fix whatever rules the CEON URI Mapping module had that aren't compatible with your media collection links. I suspect the .htaccess rewrite rules are the culprit. Perhaps the support thread for that module might be of help?

I'll check and give it a go. I noticed that for some reason, the URI module has caused conflicts with quite a few modules!

All of those addons that try to rewrite the URLs for human "friendliness" have reputations of breaking one thing or another.

The search engines don't need any such addons to work just fine with URLs generated by unaltered Zen Cart.

I can dig it! I found the culprit as well. In the store/.htaccess file
I was missing the rewrite rule for the Media folder. I inserted RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/media [NC] and turned everything back on. Everything works fine now!

In summation, one could say that if you have problems with the URI mod, check the rewrite rules. Doc, you saved a lot of headaches, and I'm glad you're willing to help this forum out

Glad you got it sorted out!

I actually thought I had it figured out! I was sleepy and didn't further investigate. When I added a new clip, I got the blank page again

I renamed the store/media .htaccess file something different, and now everything is good. Is this .htaccess necessary, or can it be deleted?

My fault, an employee was messing with the .htaccess files and to cover installed a fresh clean version from our database. This version didn't have the <FilesMatch "(^swfobject.js$|^audio_player_standard_gray.swf$|.*\.(mp3|mp4|swf|avi|mpg|wma|r m|ra|ram|wmv)$)" > in it. I noticed that if this line isn't there or the audio player isn't allowed, you'll get the broken page!
