Streamline.net and .htaccess

[Alex_09]

Hey

After installing my cart my pages will not display correctly unless I re-name the htaccess files. I have searched these forums and found that other people using streamline.net are having the same problem, none of them as far as I can tell have found a solution other than re-naming the htaccess files.

My question is firstly, if someone is with Streamline has overcome this problem I would love to know how.

And secondly, is renaming the .htaccess files a big no no?

Many thanks
Alex

fashhosts / ukreg do the same thing, they require the htaccess file in the includes folder and admin/includes folder to be removed. i just renamed these to access and that fixes fasthost, how ever i did move over to camalot as they are zencart cert hosts and they have helped me out support wise and always help out as they know zencart inside out.

have a look at them they are very reasonale spesh with the pound being strong.

steamline are very cheap looking at there prices but i always think you get what you pay for

Does re-naming open up any security issues? TBH we have only just signed up for Streamline for like £200 on a bulk account and really cannot afford to move right now so if poss would love to stay where we are

£200 lol quit it.

i pay camelot $199 which is £79 for a years hosting, including installation of zen and shared ssl, for you own ssl starts at $69 which is about £25 for a year and other extras like dedicated ip for certain payment requirments are only a couple of dollas as well.

i would consider moving to camelot, they will even move your store from your old server to their for FREE

http://www.camelot-hosting.com/hosting/hosting.php prices here

both my site listed below are not even using 10% of the storage space but i went for the larger scale as for £10 exta ya get a hell of a lot more bandwidth.

Apologies, Streamline is only £70 per year + £25 for shared SSL but we have signed up for 2 years bringing it closer to £200.

I did check out Camelot but again we cannot afford to move right now

Hi Alex

I have the same problem 2. They also now want another £25 For SSL yet more money.

I am really worried about the security issues and will watch this thread with interest.

Good luck

Yea, we paid for the extra SSL but fair enough I spose. Have you got a working site atm Damien, or are you waiting/praying for a solution?

I am scouring the web now to try to find a solution before I hand over another 25 quid to streamline, I too use the bulk user great value or so i thought.
