url to image folder is wrong(where do i change it)?

[michelleodin]

I have just upgraded to the latest version with a complete new install
all is fine except the image folder is mapped to the wrong url (don't know why)
and no images are showing in the admin side of the cart but show ok in the shop side.

i have managed to work out my images are mapped to

https://www.mysite.com/https:/webxxx...sgreenbox1.JPG


i need to change this to the following

http://www.mysite.com/myshop/images/...sgreenbox1.JPG

can someone please tell me where i edit this code
I have searched in other posts to no avail.

Thank you
Michelle

this is the problem child, shorten too /shop/

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/https:/web1xx.xxxx-secure.co.uk/mysite.com/shop/');

[michelleodin]

Thank you for your reply.
I changed the thread to define ('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/shop/' ),
And all is still the same no pictures in admin side.

You are showing only a http to your site here and not following the instructions I have highlighted in red
Probably should be

i have ssl on my front end shop but not admin so is the above correct.

I still have no images in the admin end at all.

thanks

Hate to "rewind" things, but

I have just upgraded to the latest version with a complete new install
all is fine except the image folder is mapped to the wrong url (don't know why)
and no images are showing in the admin side of the cart but show ok in the shop side

Can you explain this condition a little?

When you said a brand new install, to what extent were things brand new? Database? Files? Both?
Where did the configure.php files come from? Ie. the fact that the original file had

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/https:/web1xx.xxxx-secure.co.uk/mysite.com/shop/');

How did that get there?

As to the SSL in store side/admin, if it is enabled on the store side, why is/was it not to be enabled on the admin side? That said, now that the HTTP_SERVER constant has been redefined to point to a https address, it is in a way a moot point. ZC 1.5.5 will access all things via a secure connection just by having that setting in the Admin. Now, plugins, that's a potential different story...

So, where are you expecting to see the images from the store front that you are not. Is it by some plugin installation or part of the base install? Perhaps you could also post your includes/configure.php (and an updated admin/includes/configure.php for comparison) to see what, if any, differences are important. Again, obscure your admin directory if provided and again obscure the DB credentials. Please press the # button in the messagebox toolbar just before pasting each set.

[michelleodin]

Thank you for your reply.
I installed a New install completely from fresh, new upload of newest zencart, new database, new configure files all fresh.

I have never had ssl on the admin side, not sure now why but there was a reason given by my hosting company.
With the ssl active i don't see any product images in the admin side, although they are on the front end side!
So for now as a temp fix i have disabled the ssl altogether and my images show in the admin until i get the ssl working correctly.
So should i enable ssl in both admin and frontend?
My config files are as follows

1. Why are you using the odinsminiatureshop folder at all?

2. If you believe you need to keep the subdirectory (I wouldn't unless there's a clear business case), then these values will probably work:

For admin:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://web166.secure-secure.co.uk/odinsminiatures.com');
define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true');

For non-admin:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.odinsminiatures.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://web166.secure-secure.co.uk/odinsminiatures.com');
define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true');

For both:

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/odinsminiatureshop/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/odinsminiatureshop/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/sites/odinsminiatures.com/public_html/odinsminiatureshop/');

(might need to remove the final odinsminiatureshop/ from DIR_FS_CATALOG)
