ejectcore Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Whats happens when you type in "yourdomain.co.uk/index.php" :question: some hosts show only htm/html as default but you can force to display php in htaccess below ;-) you can try adding this to the top of your .htaccess file Directory Index index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russty Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 when i type index.php same thing happens, it says 'The service is unavailable.' its funny b/c the admin section works fine.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejectcore Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I have tried everything I know to resolve this issue changed htaccess created php.initried to force @ini_set('allow_url_fopen', 'on');But none of this worksanother bad experience with Godaddy :shut: you answer may be herehttp://www.prestashop.com/forums/viewthread/2946/otherwise you really have to options1) Speak to godaddy & show them your problem & tell them you require allow_url_fopen to be turned on2) Change host !!!Sorry but that's all i can suggest after spending 30 mins trying to resolve this :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russty Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 if it is the allow_url_fopen directive this should be written in the requirements for PS and when installing it should be 'not opional' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejectcore Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Well I have seen others get past the allow_url_fopen issueso this problem relates to godaddyI can see your php is up-to date & you are using mysql 5so try Peter's option in the previous link sent or speak to godaddyAnd you know what the last option is :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pursuant Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 My godaddy hosting works perfectly... It must have to do with domain registrations/types. Where were your domains purchased? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russty Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 It cant be the name servers , wankers at godaddy.its a prestashop issue, php works ok at godaddy i made my own php file (below) and it works. As for the fopen they say i can run my own php.ini file at GDaddySo what can be wrong? is "The service is unavailable." an error of PShop?Do i need my own php.ini file? Ox40 do you have your own at godaddy? <?php echo " Hello, i'm a PHP file! "; ?> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejectcore Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I had tried setting up php.ini file for you to activate fopen but this did not workhave you tried RC5 on this server :question: I have a few more tricks up my sleeve which I will look into later for you ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleep Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Totally. http://tennieshardware.com Can you please tell me how you did that. I have a domain name bought and hosted with godaddy. I installed prestashop without a hitch. However, I couldn't get the sef urls to work. Did you have to make any additional modifications to the .htaccess file or anywhere else to get this to work?

Lightsource Media Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I'm using Prestashop 1.0.0.8 on GoDaddy Linux Economy Hosting using PHP5 and MySQL5 and it works A1.I just followed the install instructions exactly, especially the part about applying certain permissions to certain folders, and for some folders to apply to sub contents too.As indicated on the back office I renamed the htaccess.txt to htaccess and that was it.Also, turning store on and off works fine.My domain is also registered through and managed by GoDaddy as is my SSL cert.Although I can't see how that should matter.

Lightsource Media Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I don't know if this helps but...If you're using PHP 5 your php.ini file (the one you use to override GoDaddys default config) needs to be called php5.ini NOT php.iniAt least as far as I am aware...
