IP address before domain name

Hi
'/home/cluster-sites/5/m/mcqentertainment.co.uk/public_html/'); ??????
To be honest I don't even know where to begin to check this.

I don't have ssl yet. So i just done your additions with out it and it all working still.

But sitemap xml, when I got to the page on tools, instead of getting the forbidden error. It now just opens up in a new page on the exact same page if you get me. I recopied over the original files. Not a full reinstall same result.

Thanks again for the help

No need to check it. If your storefront is showing pages correctly with that set, then it is almost certainly correct.

Yep, figured it was probably correct but.....

Now we need to get a look at the code in the .htaccess file that is in the public_html folder.

Hold off on Point C (sitemap) until we get from Point A to Point B first. We still need to see if there isn't some strange/incorrect code in that file.

Use the # again to show it to us.

Nothing in there but ceons rewrite rule

Although it appears that the sitemap.xml file appears to now not be accessible, there is nothing "wrong" with the links generated by sitemap as compared to the links that had previously been generated for the site.

Please again review this earlier posting: https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?227183-IP-address-before-domain-name&p=1374980#post1374980

What is/was happening is that while the site was located in a sub-directory, uris were generated. Those links include the sub-directory name. Now that the site has been moved back to the parent directory, the sub-directory "doesn't exist", but the links still point to the sub-directory. In reality this is fine especially if the site has already been indexed to any degree. Obviously the desire is to "remove" that sub-directory for ease of accessing the link(s). This can be remedied without losing access to those items by way of the old uri(s). Basically the uri(s) need to be updated to make the old one "old" and to create a new one that becomes the current/active uri... (again reread the above post)... if the site is brand spanking new and has had no traffic/expectation of having had links captured to the page(s) then the addresses can be updated wholesale and therefore any attempt to access such an "old" link would go to the Zen Cart's "page not found" location.

Again though, there is no "problem" with the sitemap software. It is reporting the link(s) that have been selected/entered for each desired page.

Hey All.

I just logged in and it's created the sitemaps it's self at 9:13 this morning so I guess it working it just seems the rebuild action doesn't work. So that's a win.
Everything seems to be working now.

Thanks for hanging in there with me
