trailing slash in url

[Stevie-B]

Hello all,

I have a fresh install v1.3.9h and I am getting a 404 error in the cart (admin works fine). The reason is the trailing slash "/" is missing in the URL. I am getting http://mysite.com/cartindex.php?main_page=index&cPath=1 but it should read http://mysite.com/cart/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1.

I have gone over the configure.php page so many times my eyes are bleeding and all of the trailing slashes seem to be in place.

Where is the trailing slash actually written? or Is there something else I can check?

The only other change I have made so far is I changed the configure.php files to read only.

I know I could have installed the 1.5 version but I want to do an upgrade for the knowledge before I actually launch a live site.

Thanks in advance

Could you post your file, from the server:
/includes/configure.php

NOTE: Do NOT include your database information and password ...

Wow Ajeh, that was the quickest response I ever got on any forum - Thanks!

Here it is I changed what I thought might be sensitive info.

Thank you for your help.

I got it sorted. It turns out that the / was missing in the other configure.php file. I didn't look there because I didn't change anything there. But got it now, Thank you very much.

Thanks for the update that you have this working and that the configure.php file that I suggested you check in the /includes/configure.php for the Catalog was the problem ...
