Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[ckosloff]

Well, attempted to install SSU.
No problems there, except for the fact that I am using XAMPP on Windows and I stumbled on step 2 b. of installation instructions:
Go to path_to_cache_folder/ssu, set this "ssu" folder's and all its subfolders permission to 0777
Now, the only thing I can do in Windows is to modify the read-only attribute. It wouldn't take, coming back as read-only all the time. So started to go further up, attempted to change permissions in cache, no joy either. Went up to root, nothing there, everything is back to read-only.
The problem is that my test site is now inaccessible and so is Admin:
Server error!

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script.
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 500


I don't think this is caused by changing permissions, since they are all back to read-only.
I didn't modify anything in folder structure.
Path to cache is OK in both configure.php files.
.htaccess changed to RewriteBase / since Zen Cart is installed in the root.
Thanks for continuing support.

500 error:
This is usually caused by .htaccess mis-configured

windows:
I developed the module using xampp with winxp as well, have no problem with it

Maybe you post your zencart configure.php and .htaccess here? (and the location of this .htaccess)

Thanks for continuing support.
Here are the files you requested.
Location of .htaccess is root folder.

Just my silly question, but why do you have?
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.example.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.example.com');

[yellow1912]

Also, you have:
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', 'C:/xampp/htdocs/ladywig/');

So shouldnt you have

RewriteBase /ladywig/

[ckosloff]

Just my silly question, but why do you have?
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.example.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.example.com');

That is because I followed instructions in the Zen Cart manual.
Instead of having localhost the author recommends to create a domain with redirection to 127.0.0.1 so www.example.com is my local domain.
In the live server the domain is top level so Rewrite Base would be OK without anything after it.
I already added /ladywig/ to RewriteBase in .htaccess but still getting the 500 error.
Thanks again, your support is truly extraordinary and the main reason why I chose this contrib over others, apart from other reasons, like support for EZ pages.

You should have a more detailed error message found in:

<xampp-dir>/apache/logs/error.log

That may help us to solve this problem

If you use xampp, mod_rewrite is not enabled by default.
