Hi,

new2u:

Tis supposed to redirect
http://mysite.com/index.php to
http://mysite.com correct?

Nope, it redirects anything which matches the rewrite conditions to index.php - at the server's side that is.. so even though the customer is seeing "/my-category/-my-product" the page the server is looking for is "index.php".

That's how rewrite rules work!

All the best...

Google checkout is one of the worst modules for Zen Cart unfortunately. It breaks a lot of things so we recommend against its use!

It sounds like you need to reinstall the URI Mapping module. Specifically it sounds like the file [modified_core_files] includes/functions/html_output.php needs to be merged once more with the version on your site.

Hope that helps!

www.starlitefurniture.co.ukI agree with Conor.. At it's BEST, the Google checkout is beta software.. It's NEVER worked to my knowledge.. a read through of the support thread tells the whole story..

What I have done for clients is create a clone of the check/money order payment module and created a "Google" check out option. Customers who select it will receive a separate Google invoice (manually generated from Google).. Not the integrated solution we would all like, but it works for my client since she has so few Google sales anyway.. (most customers use Paypal)

You've definitely overwritten some files or missed some out.

Please send me FTP and admin details via this link and I'll take a quick look.

Hello,

I've noticed a strange problem in my site logs after installing the URI mapping mod (which is fantastic, by the way).

A lot of the spiders are getting tangled up in currency variations and sord orders, and multiple questions marks are being added to the url string. Googlebot and Vagabondo are the main ones. They also keep getting dealt the cookie_usage page.

I am almost 100% certain it's something that I've done wrong in configuration, but I can't for the life of me work out what it might be.

Any assistance would be wonderful.

The site is http://glittergoth.co.uk. Zencart version v1.3.8a/v1.3.8

Thank you!

Short of your rewrite rule adding an extra question mark I'm afraid I can't see how that could be happening. It certainly isn't something I've seen before.

Sorry I can't say more than that!

Hi Conor,

I'll set my programmer husband on it. I know he tweaked a couple of things, and perhaps he managed to upset the rewrite rules in an unforseen way. I just thought you might have a flash of inspiration :D

Thanks for your help!

Thank you very much Conner , you are worth your weight in gold, i am forever in your in your debt .

I'll agree with you that google checkout can be a little fussy to install, but it does work well and plays nice with the Ceon URI mod.

Don't forget to add the google checkout directory to the excludes in the .htaccess file or you'll loose a lot of hair wondering why it doesn't work.

Not to get off-topic, but in many ways, the GC mod is a lot smoother and has fewer glitches than the equiv PP mod.

Also, I've yet to see the URI mod break anything. It's one of those gems that just works no matter what you mix it with.

Hi,

kiddo:

I'll agree with you that google checkout can be a little fussy to install, but it does work well and plays nice with the Ceon URI mod.

You haven't tried to set up any complicated shipping options before then! Google Checkout is completely incompatible with any decent third party shipping modules.. I'm glad it works well enough for you but that makes you the only store I know using the module, everyone else I know who was using it has removed it! :)

Thanks for the tip, hopefully that helps someone else here!

Personally I'm not a fan of either of those mods but we're getting way off topic now.. :)

That was one of the main things I've tried to accomplish during its development.. there have been glitches along the way, but thankfully the initial design considerations did their job and made any such glitches/incompatibilities minor (and mostly due to unforeseen uses of variables in Zen Cart, that turned out to be a learning curve for me! ;) ).

Anyway.. thanks for the notes about the directory needing excluding!

All the best...

After upgrading to latest 3.2.4 version I can't configure the module from admin as it's displaying two php error messages ... the

"Warning: main(/home/seasonbr/theoutletseason-www/electronics/includes/extra_datafiles/ceon_uri_mapping_config.php' "

As this line requires this file to be present in includes/extra_datafiles/
in the admin

require_once(DIR_FS_CATALOG . DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'extra_datafiles/ceon_uri_mapping_config.php'); 

and it's not there is kind of confusing because I reviewed the package and that file is where it supposed to be, and not within the extra_files subdir ...

So can you please explain it to me?

Now I fixed some of the problems ... apparently the server denied some files but now everything is they way it supposed to be however I get:

this error

1054 Unknown column 'excluded_files' in 'field list'
in:

If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

When I try to run the CEON config in admin ...

Hi,

icecold:

I'm not sure what you've done wrong, but you've definitely done something wrong!

Please use PHPMyAdmin to delete the database table for the module and then reinstall it. I think that should get you sorted!

All the best..

Conor

Solved!
It was a problem with Dreamweaver CS4, and my server running Apache, DW sync didn't recognized the updated file and therefore it was not updated, to fix it I had to drop CEON's Tables and manually check all files for discrepancies(I used WinMerge on those files before, so I only had to check if the correct file was in the server and not the outdated version).

I hope the bugs are fixed!

Apparently not even with version 3.2.4 I got this error "

The requested URL /electronics/bagscarry-cases was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

So does it mean I have to disable the module, Conor?

Ok. finally I solve all the issues! :clap:

Apparently the script failed but succeed creating the tables, I drop them again, and re-run it and voila! Plus my .htaccess was modified and didn't have the Rewrite command! So I wrote the rules again and it worked!!! Now the bug is solved I simply add the external app the exceptions ...

Works perfectly! Thanks for a Great module!
Looking forward for the Manager, is tedious to generate all URIs manually!

Hi there,

I have this module installed and im just wondering how I could remove the "index.php" at the end of my domain name. For SEO purposes, I have a 301 redirect of "mydomain.com" to "www.mydomain.com" but im getting the index.php at the end and I would like to remove this if possible.

Do I just remove the following from the .htaccess file?

Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (index.php)

RewriteRule (.*) index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

Thanks...
