Image handler error on local install

[misty]

If you don't have SSL cert installed on localhost, first configure.php file should read

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://localhost');
  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://localhost');
  // Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?
  define('ENABLE_SSL', 'false');

am also assuming, for security reasons, you have
not entered here on forums, correct settings for both files at

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'username');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'password');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'database_name');

I did notice one ENABLE_SSL said "false" and one said "true". I just downloaded it from the internet server like that.

I'll change the one to false and see what happens. Would that make the shop not show? Hmm.

Yes, I took out my username, password, and database name on purpose for security. You're correct.

Thanks for your reply,
Rebekah

Well, changed it to "false" and that didn't help. Still no shop.

Thanks again anyway. Anybody else see anything I can try?

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://192.168.1.106');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://localhost');

Not correct

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://localhost');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://localhost');

is CORRECT

Look at the php requirements for IH2 as I suspect that the WAMP does not have these installed or enabled - the image stuff libraries

Sorry to be so long-posted. One more thing, this sounds stupid but I can't locate a file called php.ini. Is it actually called something else? (I did use the Windows search.)

I personally don't use wamp, I've got Php, mysql and apache installed to view my page locally, so I don't know how it installs PHP. If it installs PHP as a seperate program, php.ini will be located in the php folder - probably under c:/program files/php or php5 or something like that.

Wamp may have some sort of link to php.ini, if their help file has a search, you might look for the word php or something.

Ah, I get it. I thought you meant somewhere in the ZenCart install. I know where to find the php.ini with WAMP.

I'm not thinking that "PEAR" reference is a problem anymore though since I am able to login the Admin fine now. It wasn't even displaying at all before, just an error.

Now, the main problem is I can't see my shop!

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply, Misty. I was using my own computer's IP in hopes that my husband can see the catalog from his laptop. I am able to login to the Admin area from a different computer on our home network using: http://192.168.1.106/shop/admin/ but http://192.168.1.106/shop/ just brings up "page cannot be displayed".


Kobra,

I'll look into this but I'm not sure where to start. Would that make the catalog not display the page at all? I'm not having the ImageHandler error anymore. I can see the admin login page and login fine now.

Thanks,
Rebekah

Kobra,

I found this info online to enable the GD Library in php.

"Search the following line of code:
;extension=php_gd2.dll
Remove the semicolon from the beginning of this line, to activate the GD library:
extension=php_gd2.dll"

I found that line already had no semicolon in front of it. So, is that what you're talking about? It seems it's already enabled.
