All Links Broken

I've just migrated Zen-cart from mydomain/cataloge to mydomain.

All of my links have now stopped working as they are missing "/" after my domain name.

I've checked and re-checked my includes/configure.php file and I can't seem to find any trailing / I have missed.

My site can be found at

http://www.imagocollections.com.au/index.php/?main_page=index&cPath=33
(my main page links aren't working yet)

Any help would be really appreciated

Re: All Links Broken

Does your configure file have these two lines?

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

Re: All Links Broken

Can you post the whole file (but remove the section headed "// define our database connection") together with the path name at which it is located.

Re: All Links Broken

Have you changed the references in BOTH configure.php files? There are two of them.

includes/configure.php
admin/includes/configure.php

Re: All Links Broken

This is the admin/includes/configure.php with "// define our database connection" section removed.
Thanks

Re: All Links Broken

Your admin configure file won't affect the links that are broken in your catalog. The contents of the first configure file, which normally controls this look fine.

It's worth however applying the fix-cache utility if you haven't already done so.

Otherwise we are likely to be heading into some deeper debugging.

Re: All Links Broken

Oh no not good - I have already run the fix cache utility - it said all was good.

Any other ideas?

Thanks for your help so far

Re: All Links Broken

Are you running on a Linux server? Are you doing any mod re-writing?

Re: All Links Broken

Suggest you delete both 'config' files and re-upload.

The learning is in the doing.

Re: All Links Broken

yes, I agree. In fact it is advisable to do a completely new fresh install on the new server or folder and then simply copy your override files over to there to get your custom template back up.

Re: All Links Broken

:clap:Tried deleting and re-upping the same files - no good.

Tried deleting then re-editing back-ups of the old files and it worked! I must have had something wrong in there. Thanks so much for your help - that little / caused me alot of pain.:clap:

Re: All Links Broken

Duh! Hat's off to website Rob - can't believe I forgot that basic step. :blush:

The issue was probably that because those files are normally write-protected, many FTP programs simply don't over-write them with any changes you make.

You were telling us what you thought you'd put the changes, but until you actually deleted the files and re-uploaded them, the changes weren't actually getting there. I ssupect that you initial deletion and re-upping was of files that hadn't actually got the changes in.
