Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

[DarkAngel]

Hello,
Please, please, please help me!!.
I attempted to download IH yesterday to my zencart without success so then went and deleted all the effected files and re-installed the original ones which I had backed up. Everything was working as normal again until I 'accidently' overwrote my index.php file in my public html and now I am unable to access my admin.
I've downloaded an index.php file from a new zencart but it is still not working because I've no idea how to link it to my site.

I'm not technical minded at all, hence my stupid mistake and problem!.....
SQL language is double-dutch to me so if there is anyone that could advise me where I need to make amendments I would truly appreciate it and hopefully that will fix my mistake?!?
My Site Name is: LynKan.com
The only changes I've made to the zencart is the template - I changed it to pinkywinky.

If this doesn't work, is my only other option to start from scratch again with a new zencart?
If I then upload the files I had backed up (images, includes, cache & admin) would it all be working properly again??

Sorry for babbling on......
I look forward to any guidance to help me out.
Thanks

ok, I may be wrong but if you uploaded the index.php to the root of your store and admin still won't play nice then that is not the file.

Are you sure you did not delete the admin folder/includes/configure.php file I think that one is the one that lets you into admin section as well as having renamed it from the original admin

do you get an error message when attempting to go to admin?

Hello all,
I installed Image Handler2,but have a problem for me.
I used godaddy hosting,but they have some limite as can't have more than 1024 files in per folder,so i must clear the bmz_cache folder every day,it's tried for me,so i need use cron job to clear the bmz_cache folder every day,and because i have no to do it in some days,then the godaddy workers closed my hosting.

1.but i don't know how to set it in godaddy cron job manager,please let me know the command.

2.If you can help us more,i hope you can fix this problem for godaddy hosting user: let the different cache picture to differrent folders,as bmz_cache/Large_cache/ and bmz_cache/M_cache/ ..., limite files number for per folders,and when the pictures files over the number,then it auto to creat files to other folders.if the script will be so cool,then godaddys user will be happy more.

Now i limite the files less than 1024 in per folders and set faile for Image Handler2,but have many new products and many old products must use oriange picture,and the picture too big,so the site very very slowly now. it will cost about 10s to open full.

If I were you I would get new host.

godaddy should be the ones to tell you how to set the cron job. that way they can't complain if it is done wrong even with their instructions

A coupla comments to add here..

At the risk of being accused (again) of being the forum police, the issue here seems to have LESS to do with an Image Handler install issue than it appears to be a Zen Cart configuration/installation issue..

Suggest that the OP correct the issue she has with her Zen Cart installation, and come back to the Image Handler support thread only if there are issues with the Image Handler installation.. Any discussions surrounding troubleshooting Zen Cart installation/configuration should not be conducted here in this support thread as it is waaaay off topic..

Secondly, The OP should be using the LATEST version of Image Handler (Image Handler 3) and not Image Handler 2. This means IF there really is an Image Handler 3 issue that discussion should take place on the Image Handler 3 support thread..

ok, I may be wrong but if you uploaded the index.php to the root of your store and admin still won't play nice then that is not the file.

Thank you so much DarkAngel for your reply.
I went back and re-installed my backed up files again and it worked. "Patience is a virtue" as they say!!
Thanks a million again for your guidance.

Sorry DivaVocal, won't post here incorrectly again!

if you have the files sitting in the main folders of the store (original folders ) it should work, but if you put them into folders with your other templates name then you broke it.

when changing themes you need to put the files to any mod into the new template s folder as well as any override folders you have.

Hello!

I apologize in advance if this is the incorrect area to post this question and problem.

I am also suddenly having an issue with the images appearing on my products. Old products working fine, new products not so much!

I am running Zen Cart 1.3.8a
Database Patch Level: 1.3.8
v1.3.8 [2009-06-03 18:14:52] (Fresh Installation)
v1.3.8 [2009-06-03 18:14:52] (Fresh Installation)
GoDaddy Linux/Shared Hosting
PHP 4.x
MSQL

The site has not been updated since initially installed.

I assume I need to figure out what version of the image handler I am using first?

How and where do I go to see what version of the IH I am using?

Again, I apologize for being in the wrong place, technologically impaired, and short on caffeine to further muck up the works.

Cheers
