path routing problem with the hosting

[mc12345678]

Recently I helped someone to do a sort of redirect. The first attempt also was to modify the main_template_vars file because it made sense as that was where the data was "determined" to be correct, but a similar issue occurred (headers already sent). This has to do with the sequence of information loaded and that such a redirect (at least a specific one like you are trying to do) ought to be handled in the header related file(s). While the responsive template may have some factor in the issue, my suggestion would be to do your test/check in the header_php.php file before the notifier at the end and redirect from there.

Now I am not aware of what all else is going on regarding the 302/404 issue, which seems to be a unique problem to the software/server side. There has been discussion about possible differences between your live site and your local one, but no identification of specifically those differences. I suggest that you find a comparison tool and identify any differences between the two sites including but not limited to the contents of each file as well as files that exist on one server and not the other. In some cases, and often, names of files are changed to make them "old" but the change does not prevent the file from loading because of the file's extension and the location in which it remains. Feel free to post the filenames and discrepancies to obtain further assistance.

Hello MC thank you for answering, I can understand everything but admit chese if a product does not exist instead of getting a 404 I get before a rederict 302. This has affected me for years since I removed the rewrite url. Now I've lost so many location on google ranking that I wonder why no one talks about it and nobody knows what to do to remove this rederict 302 before getting a 404.

This is information that was not previously provided (among a number of other things that would lead to a solution). First of all, ZC (at least currently) only uses a 302 redirect within the paypalwpp.php file.... So, any 302 redirect other than an issue with paypal processing is brought on by something else on your system. One way to try to identify what code exists on your server that may offer the 302 redirect is from your admin, goto tools->Developers toolkit, then in the bottom left fill in 302, select catalog on the dropdown, then search... Haven't spoken about what version of ZC you are currently using, or perhaps so and I haven't gone through all of the posts specifically for that tidbit, but that search should identify includes/modules/payment/paypalwpp.php as having a 302 redirect and perhaps whatever else is causing yours. The next thing is that you said you "removed the rewrite url", you haven't identified which one was installed, and more than likely remnants of that url rewriter still exist on your system and that is a large part of what you are experiencing.

The why others haven't? Well, they haven't come across the issue, haven't looked, or when they have attempted to do what is stated above about removal of the software they were successful at fully removing it. It is again one reason why the upgrade process (BTW 1.5.5.a is out now) suggests basically to do a clean install of the software, integrate the needed plugins and other minor software modifications so that old/unused plugins don't interact.

Hello MC, has nothing to do with the 1.5.5a version, if you see all of the online demo version have the probleme, that if a product id does not exist does not provide a 404 but first a 302 and then a 404 as an error. as far as my version is a new 1,5,4 never did a rewrite url. I ask you to check the link above to me and you'll see that makes a 302 before and after going to page 404
