[countrycharm]

500 Internal Server Error error

Please suggest

Thanks

Maybe this will help.

Ok, my programmer just installed SIMPLE SEO URL on my 1.3.8 Zen-Cart and I'm now trying to figure ut how to configure it so that it works.

When I "Set SSU Status" to true I get an error on the actual front end of my live site:

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Do you have any tips on how to configure SSU once it is installed?

Thank you very much

I am getting the exact same error.

The cache dir and all subdirs/files are 777.

Warning Checking includes/configure.php
Warning Suggested .htaccess content

I don't know what's wrong with my configure.php...

The htaccess is SSU's default one. I did not use a htaccess before.

You need to change the htaccess content, RewriteBase / is precisely the line you have to change.

The instruction is online as well as inside the htaccess

I have to know where your store is located to know what is wrong with it, for example if it is in a subfolder named shop then it should be RewriteBase /shop

If not, then it is correct. And if you still get the 500 error, you have to check the server error log to know precisely what goes wrong. 500 is a general error which can mean many things.

I found the problem.

I did not have module_manager_rev16zip.zip installed.

It's working now! Phew!

One question though: is it possible to change the names of the main categories?

Right now my URL will look like: http://www.site.com/wild-flowers/blue-wild-flowers. The actual category is also called "Wild Flowers"

Still, I want to change the "wild-flowers" part into "buy-wild-flowers", so for example: http://www.site.com/buy-wild-flowers/blue-wild-flowers.

I've added an Alias like that in the Manage Aliases field, enabled it and made it permanent. But the URL does not change to that when I visit my home page. It is still "wild-flowers". I can access the page by hand-typing "/buy-wild-flowers", however it doesn't show up naturally..........

Any advice?

Thanks a lot for this plugin, it is much better than CEON SEO URLs!!!!

Hi, I have a problem. I have just installed xml generator and I want it to generate seo urls of my products for yahoo and others. I found code:

function zen_seo_href_link($page = '', $parameters = '', $connection = 'NONSSL', $add_session_id = true, $search_engine_safe = true, $static = false, $use_dir_ws_catalog = true) {
if (defined('SEO_ENABLED') && SEO_ENABLED == 'true') {
if (!isset($GLOBALS['seo_urls']) && !is_object($GLOBALS['seo_urls'])) {
include_once('../' . DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'seo.url.php');
$GLOBALS['seo_urls'] = &new SEO_URL($_SESSION['languages_id']);
}
return $GLOBALS['seo_urls']->href_link($page, $parameters, $connection, $add_session_id, $static, $use_dir_ws_catalog);
} else {
return zen_href_link($page, $parameters, $connection, $add_session_id);
}
} 

which works with ultimate seo url but doesn't work with this mode. Can somebody somebody solve the problem for me? THX

hello, I'm still with the problem described on page 318 of this topic. I need to transform ç => c, á => a, etc ... in my page but I can not, now I discovered that the problem is more serious, google is not being able to find the links created in xml sitemap because of non-alphanumeric characters. my version is the 2.96(php4), my server don't have the php5. how can i convert non alphanumeric characters? the ultimate seo url contribution used to do this, but i got too much problems with it. countrycharm tried to help me (assistance for which I am very grateful) but with no success.

hope somebody can help me with this, all i need is to convert this caracters, everything else is working fine.

thank you

maybe your server doesnt have mod_rewrite enabled?

it has mod rewrite enabled. otherwise, it shouldn't work at all. the funny thing is it is not sending the not found pages to 404. instead sending to site home page. mod rewrite is working, but not the we are expecting or I am missing something.

I'm sorry I'm not able to answer your question, but I found this thread that will. Hope you get it sorted out.

Yellow will need to help you with your problem, since you are still on the php4 version.

I will have to check this php4 version again, I have no memory how to do this, lol, it's so back in the past. Cant your host upgrade you to php5(if you are already using 1.3.7 and up)? This should be a painless process

Internal error is usually because of wrong htaccess content.

You should not have problem with this version. Did you clear up all cached in your admin-extras-ssu manager?

Can you post a link to the site?
