Ceon URI Mapping (SEO)

[g1smd]

Can you spot the error in my .htaccess file? Sorry to ask you this but I haven't got a clue what it all means

One MAJOR error is that you have the redirect listed AFTER the rewrites

For a non-www request this will expose the internal filepath back out on to the web as a URL.

You must list all of the redirect code before any of the rewrites.

See http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=151606 for more robust non-www to www redirect code.

Conor - quick question! I am trying to get the Ajax Search working that I got from here:

http://eazyecommerce.com/platforms/z...es/ajax-search

We are ahaving trouble getting it to work and cannot seem to access the file located at http://outdoorcookingdepot.com/ajax/ajax_search.php

I was on the phone with the host yesterday - there are no valid reasons there should be a a problem and Raine from Eazy Ecommerce has been spending way too much time on it trying to get it work...

THe last thing that was suggested was that there may be a conflict with CEON? I do have the latest version installed....

Is there any reason this mod wouldn't work with CEON that you can imagine?

I hate removing CEON b/c I love it but am thinking the search capability is more important so I would love to get them working together if in fact it is CEON that is giving us the issue!!

Thanks for your thoughts.....

Jill

Hi Jill,

Have you read the FAQs?

You probably have to add the following to your rewrite rule:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/ajax [NC]

All the best..

OK that was added to the .htaccess but it is still not able to load the ajax.....I am ready to give up on this.....can you think of anything else that may cause conflict before I just give up? Thanks Conor....

Hi,

I just looked at the page you showed me and it's not the URI Mapping module which is breaking the AJAX module (as I knew it couldn't be)..

"Warning: require(includes/configure.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream" means that your ajax script can't find the file includes/configure.php..

I'm afraid that as this is nothing to do with URI Mapping that it's not appropriate to talk about this problem on this thread.

I'd imagine the problem should be quite easy to fix, I'm surprised the module's author can't get it to work.. the solution seems fairly obvious to me given what error codes are being displayed (i.e. set up the correct file paths!).

So no need to remove the URI Mapping module, it's not the cause of your problems!

All the best..

The following section of the documentation applies for anyone attempting to integrate certain third party modules with Zen Cart:

"Ensuring 100% Compatibility with Third Party Zen Cart Modules - Specifying Individual Files to be Excluded from URI Mapping"

The information in in describes how to identify scripts which need to be excluded and how to go about that.

The docs are there for a reason! :)

All the best..
