Cart stopped working

http://www.communicationscripts.com/files/

It was working and stopped working when I enabled SSL. When I disabled SSL, the store would not display. Any ideas?

Below are the config files...

needs to be

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

and you need to do the same for ALL the paths where file or admin is named

Changed but it's still the same... Note: I had it that way before and tried a few settings when the cart stopped working.

What else could it be?

its not working because you have paths in the configure.php file that are NOT correct

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', 'files/'); also needs to be changed
to
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/files/');

admin config

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', 'files/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', 'files/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', 'files/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', 'files/');

to

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/files/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/files/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/files/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/files/');

and

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', 'files/admin/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', 'files/');

to

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/files/admin/');

HI
My cart did not stop working, but my media player only plays sometimes. and sometimes not, usually on the same tracks. All links work checked,
upload via ftp, seams ok,
This is odd because the same tracks that work one day don't work on another day.

Does any one know what the problem can be...
Everything with going great untill now :cry:

I'm sorry, I was not clear. I've posted the config files below for you to see they're in order. Really confusing since the host has not updated that server lately...

Also try this

// HTTP_SERVER is your Main webserver: eg-http://www.communicationscripts.com/
// HTTPS_SERVER is your Secure webserver: eg-https://www.communicationscripts.com/
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://localhost');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://localhost');

// HTTP_SERVER is your Main webserver: eg-http://www.communicationscripts.com/
// HTTPS_SERVER is your Secure webserver: eg-https://www.communicationscripts.com/
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.communicationscripts.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.communicationscripts.com');

It looks like you put the https://www.communicationscripts.com in the sxample section

Tried that earlier and same result. I don't understand how changing the SSL setting in teh config files from false to true can cause this problem...

well I can tell you for certain that you need to fix all of the things I just described,

there was more changed than ssl from false to true,

you have local host in the define where your domainame should be

and the other changes were path changes,

I'll attach the files again. I have not changed any other file other than the 2 config files to enable SSL for the store part (not admin).

Are you as confused as I am? 8|

Listen to Merlin.......he is a host with alot of years experience with ZC.
He is right you have localhost were your domain should be listed.
the lines in the config file that start with // are comment lines and don't do anything. they are only examples for the lines below them. The other path changes needed to be made are adding the / before those items that merlin suggested. All of these changes need to be made at the same time. doing one or the other will not fix it, it needs to be both.

OOps I see you posted while I was typing

I know about "//" and changed the 2 config files accordingly (just posted again). This is nuts because the cart worked before...

Should I do a clean install? I'd rather not since I've spent time tweaking it...

what is the rest of the server path

there should be more that /files/ fir the actual server path

on a c-panel server this would look like this
/home/username/public_html/files/

on a windows it woul dlok something like
c:/username/user directory/files/

yes this looks wrong

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)
//the following path is a COMPLETE path to your Zen Cart files. eg: /var/www/vhost/accountname/public_html/store/
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/files/');

it should look something like this
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home2/heavscom/public_html/');

contact your host for actual path

Wow, that was it... :)

Truth is that it worked before the way I had it. lol

Thanks guys!

the useraccount portion would have an actual user account name there

Looking at the config file it looks like a stock dist-config with just the couple of wrong change you made originally. I would be interested to see the database connection section to see if that reverted to stock also (you could post it without the username and passwords, just put ****** there) I would bet you edited a stock copy and dropped it in there.......

see what happens when I am typing....you go and fix it.

I'm now getting an error when trying to access the admin area:

1146 Table xxxxx.zen_project_version' doesn't exist
in:
[select * from zen_project_version WHERE project_version_key = 'Zen-Cart Database' ]
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.

Here's my admin/includes db part:

// define our database connection
define('DB_TYPE', 'mysql');
define('DB_PREFIX', 'zen_');
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'xxxxx');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'xxxxx');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'xxxxx');
define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false');
define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'db');
// use 'db' for best support, or '' for file-based storage

Wow, spooky...

The db suffix in the admin config file had reverted to the default setting. I changed it back and it now works.

Is this a bug with PHP5.2.5 and mySQL5.0.45?

Please help me as well
