    GoPHP5 Initiative

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    while Id love to upgrade our server to php5 I have over 150 hosting clients with apps that depend on php4

    and if I upgraded Id have to upgrade or find new apps that would work under php5 at my cost for the different apps that would be broken it took 2 weeks of my time just going thru and fixing things when we moved to a new box and Sir WIlliam and I set it up properly and had register_globals OFF and safe_mode ON

    for any file or app that depended on safe_mode and register_globals which in 9/10 cases was an easy thing

    and NEEDED to be updated but man goin from php4 to php 5 id be working non stop for 2 months cleaning up all the apps...

    good news is from reading the posts here it IS possible to run both php4 and 5 at the same time guess Ill go poke Sir William and see what he says (that guy a server sys admin genius)

    You can also ask Will (Everythingweb) he recently reconfigured his hosting to run PHP4 and PHP5 on the same php files. It works great ;)

    Internet Explorer Help

    I am having issues with my cart not working in some versions of IE. It works great in every browser but some versions of IE mess it up. The images are what is causing the problem.

    I know that the images extend out of the box, but I actually like that. IE doesn't like that and so moves it to the bottom.

    Open this link in FF and IE to see what the issue is.

    http://www.fivestarsource.com/index.php?_a...p;productId=715

    I am guessing I need to fix something with the style sheet but not sure what.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Well the extended image does not look so bad I agree. Best to use style="width: 100%; overflow: auto" in a div image encloses as worry how to achieve the same behavior in IE :yeahhh:

    Email.inc.php Nightmare

    I just downloaded 4.1.1 today and updated my store. The code in that section of that file is different already and looks like neither the before or after code you gave. Is it already fixed? Are the updates daily snapshots?

    I haven't tried changing the email text so I don't know if I would have this problem but I'd like these answers before I do.

    You should SEARCH FOR

    		#	$saved[$def][$key] = htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($value), ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');

		#	$saved[$def][$key] = stripslashes($value);

			$saved[$def][$key] = nl2br(html_entity_decode(stripslashes($value)));

    You'll find it around line 41...

    You didn't load or update the .htaccess file. Search Engine Friendly URLs won't work without it.

    :)

    I'm having the same problem... I don't see a ".htaccess file in the CubeCart-4.1.1 files. Where can I find the file?

    If I am to update my current ".htaccess" file instead, what should I update it with?

    Thanks!

    Go into your Admin Control Panel then into General Settings then scroll to the bottom where you should see the information that should go into your .htaccess file. Copy this information and save it as a new text file on your computer named .htaccess OR just edit it. Then upload that file to your web site via FTP. It needs to be in the main folder that your store is installed into.

    As I have just gone past the screen where all that data was recorded I am guessing that I need to make a blank database first for it to find? How do I do that?

    TIA :)

    All depends to host solution please find the mySQL Databases icon/link in your web site control panel to create a blank database.

    I am working on upgrading my v3 store to 4.1.1.

    www.blushcosmetics.com/store

    But the advanced search has a few problems no Categories are showing in category list apart from one that I edited.

    When search results are shown the pagenation links are to my category pages

    page 1 = /cat_1.html

    page 2 =/cat_2.html

    and so on.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks

    To install CC on you local machine, you need an serversoftware (apache) and en mysql database running.

    There is a package called xampp wich should fit your needs.

    It installs apache and mysql and comes up with a easy to use manager.

    2 clicks and apache and the db is running and your files are available under "http://localhost"

    just put your "xampp\htdocs" folder like "xampp\htdocs\cubecart" and call it with "http://localhost/cubecart".

    that's it

    I have installed xampp and it seems to work fine.. with both apache and mysql running.

    Now I have started the localhost install but get stck by the step 4 and get this message..

    Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'database_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in C:\xampp\htdocs\cubecart\classes\db\db.php on line 41

    Access denied for user 'database_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

    Wrong DB access credentials/Wrong DB name/Wrong DB host name....

    Customer Emails Not Going Out

    in Technical Help

    the customer email is valid as it is me and one of my email addresses that I am testing with. I still cannot get this figured out. I do thank you for your time and ask if you or anyone else has any ideas.

    Thanks

    Are you talking about this check box in the newest version? If so we are having the same issue. I will keep you informed if we get this fixed. We think it might be on our server.

    Why do you post the CubeCart version 3 order details page here? This is CubeCart 4 thread, no such check box in latest CC4 version (4.1.1) :D

    Yes that is the same button. actually in my test sales that I have been doing the only notification that the customer gets is the msg from paypal.

    Such checkbox does not exist yet thus custom text for customer once status has been changed. This old known CC3 feature comming back soon.

    also how am I to know that the paypal payment went through. I am using standard paypal setup...not direct. When I make the payment I am not redirected back to my store. I just get left at my paypal page...and in the store it shows in the "Orders" page that the customer used paypal as a payment method but does that mean that the paypal payment went through? Do I need to look for my email from paypal to make sure we actually received payment?

    Please see this thread (initial post is just enough), it does not matter it is CC3 based. Any CubeCart URLs mentioned there you find in CC4 PayPal IPN config area.

    I'm not sure I understand... modify any store? Are you saying I need to have the store modified to get things running? Shouldn't CC4 run OK without having to get it modified? I just did a standard install - no mods or hacks. Is this an issue with my server that I can have someone fix?... meaning that CC4 - out-of-the-box) may have incompatibility issues with some servers? Sorry, while I've had experience with CC3 and never experienced a single problem, this one is quite new to me. BTW - I haven't had the client buy the licence yet - waiting until I make sure it works, so I don't think I can get support from the help desk?

    Thanks

    The code just at the bottom of the page is nothing else than debug info you already enabled. The modification mentioned is to AOL users related having an issue with basket content see the link burgesnteen posted :-)

    Debug info disable -> CubeCart Admin >> General Settings >> Styles and Miscs >> Enable debug output?: No

    Yes you must have an active support plan however issue to AOL users mentioned could be fixed quick but the final code is not known yet.

    V3 To V4 Upgrade Questions

    exactly, i left those two folders alone. i didn't delete them or overwrite them. and subsequently i had problems with the install.

    "c. Upload the entire contents of this folder over the remaining files

    replacing all existing ones."

    for the upgrade newbies like me, i think this statement should include something referring to the addition of new files in the includes dir.

    i know that i'm more than happy to read directions/instructions, but i also know that programmers write crappy instructions (not implying these are crap) because they assume a lot about their audience.

    hell if it were up to programmers, the web would still be all text!

    =)

    :D fortunately nobody is perfect.
