Multistore urls not working

[kubaz]

Hi guys,

 

My store is located here: http://testgento.com/prestashop/. The second store being in the same group should be accessed from here: http://testgento.com/prestashop/uk/. It seems to be working as you can see the currency changes. However when you click to view the details of the product on http://testgento.com/prestashop/uk/ or any category it comes up with page not found.

 

Please help.

having same exact problem

Maybe you should talk to your hosting provider. All links on http://www.testgento.com/ throw 404 too so it seems that mod_rewrite is not working.

Hi Trip,

 

Thanks for your answer, however I don't think that's the problem, as the links for the default shop (for example: http://testgento.com/prestashop/1-t01-nurses-uniform-tunic-revere-collar.html) work just fine.

Without looking at your config I can only guess. I know that I had setup something like that with problems but not regarding the url rewriting ... Did you setup the 'uk' under Virtual URI or just under Domain? Imo you have to set it up under Virtual URI. If you did that right, I have no other idea.

Best regrads, trip

[kubaz]

Yes Trip, I have set it up exactly as you described. Do you possibly have a htaccess file of a working multistore installation? Could you share it, so I can compare it against mine?

 

Thanks

[Trip]

You have pm with the whole config.. just for the record... from a quick look the only difference seems to be

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^host$
RewriteRule ^uk$ /uk/ [L,R]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^host$
RewriteRule ^uk/(.*) /$1 [L]

Best regards, trip

[kubaz]

Thanks Trip,

 

Unfortunately this doesn't help. Will have to troubleshot that. Will post the results I get.

[kubaz]

I'm now sure that having the second store as a subdirectory ie /uk/ is the problem. Has anyone managed to get the right htaccess when running the second store with virtual url? This is really crucial for me.

 

Thanks

works for me...there is only one product..and it worked...as did the categories...either you resolved the problem or you did not clear your browser cache..

 

category:

http://testgento.com...k/4-beauticians

product:

 

http://testgento.com...ere-collar.html

Hello Kubaz,

 

Like Elpatron (the previous poster), I was not able to see anything wrong. It appears that the multistore link is working. Here's a screenshot - you can see your URL in my browser.

I also think it's your browser cache. If you're still having issues, though, please let us know!

Resolved! Physical folder of my store on server was listed incorrectly. Thanks all for your help! Now, on to finding out how I can not show prices to my wholesale customers until they receive a password? Comments would be appreciated. :-)

Best!

Hi Guys,

 

Thanks again for all your comments. I made a change in htaccess however it doesn't work as expected. Firstly the image is missing and you can add the product to cart.

[El Patron]

I don't know why you would be making any changes to the .htaccess......with a properly configured mutlishop ps will generate the correct one for you...automatically...you may have other problems that are not related to the original post

[kubaz]

Hi elpatron,

 

I've reuploaded the original htaccess file and now the product detail page and category pages for the uk site ie http://testgento.com/prestashop/uk/3-nursing and http://testgento.com/prestashop/uk/1-t01-nurses-uniform-tunic-revere-collar.html are redirecting to page not found. I've checked that and the redirect takes place at htaccess level.

[Trip]

The htaccess is changed relatively often so it is no good advice to "tune" there on your own. Can you at least post us some screens

from your multistore setup? Did you setup the physical url correctly?`Without seeing something it is really hard to find a solution.

For testing purpose I made free store instances today and had no problem. Can you reproduce the error on a local test system?

Do you have access to the error logs which might shed some light? Even your http://testgento.com...er=contact-form does not work so the issue might have nothing todo with url rewriting!

Best regards, trip

BTW. is the shop working without seo urls?

Hello Kubaz,

 

You said that you uploaded the ORIGINAL .htaccess file - was this the .htaccess file that was created after you finished setting up your multistore setup? This is definitely tough for us to troubleshoot without seeing the files. Can you explain the changes you said that you made to the .htaccess? That might help lead us to what's happening without having to display everything if you're reluctant to post some of the details.

Hi guys

 

i am facing the image problem in multi store. i have uploading image from default shop admin. but but products images are not coming in second shop please help me in this issue

 

Thanks

[mindraze]

Hi All,

going round in circles here so

this one might be for elaptron if he could help :-), basically the problem I have is that I'm using multishop on 1.5.3.1

I have a .com and a .co.uk both different shops when someone comes into the site from a referring link to www.mysite.com all is ok

but when they come in from a referrer that has us mysite.com in the link (no www) they are directed to the mysite.co.uk. Which i assume is the default

 

I'm not sure what to change in the ht access for multistore to force the www. Just wondered if someone could pm me an ht access for multistore with this mod in it to force the www.

 

thanks for any help offered, i need it on this one

[mindraze]

this solved mine

 

 

 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

Hello.

 

I made my attempt to configure a multishop. I created the second shop "successfully" by creating a virtual url. Seemed to work...but all the menu links point to page not found.

I tried to regenerate htaccess file by disabling/enabling/disabling canonical url's and by disabling/enabling multistore feature. All these have proved to be unsuccessful. Now I have disabled multistore and again I have the same result. All categories cannot be accessed by any url. I have even tried to delete old menu tree and create a new one.

The cache system is disabled.

All changes have been tested on private browsing but to no avail.

 

When accessing catalog in back-office I can see the categories correctly. The problem is that I have no url that will result at a category's products or at a page telling me that there are no products. It results - as mentioned earlier - to a page not found.

 

p.s.1  Even if I have around 400 products and around 40 categories (all manually imported using csv's) I have only one product assigned to a category. All tests are done by trying to access this category's products (one single product it is)

 

p.s. 2 Am I supposed to see htaccess file at the public_html folder? 'Cause I don't see any.

 

Any ideas please?

 

update:

Even if I would like to find out what the problem was I can't invest so much time to find out. Maybe the installation was messy, so I started over from a fresh install.
