Hi,

I had no trouble with a much earlier version, but can't seem to get 0.7.9 to work. I just installed it from a frsh download from the google page today. I didn't run into any errors during the install and have tried turning off the url alias feature, but can't get any products or pages to show up at all. I also notice when i change the currency in the admin nothing happens. It seems like it isn't loading the content section. Any clues where to look to fix it? Here's a link to the cart:

[removed cart, no solutions found]

Thanks!

This is quite strange! every page points to the shopping cart. I've not seen this one before. Did you edit your htaccess file and change:
#RewriteBase /shop/
to
RewriteBase /cart/

?

Yep, I changed the .htaccess file to /cart/ Its almost like something is missing because so much is wonky, but darned if I know what. I uploaded again just in case.

Well i wish i could help from here but that is just too weird. If you'd like, PM me a temporary ftp login and temp admin access to the admin area of your cart and I can maybe troubleshoot from there.

Just out of curiosity, What happens if you remove the htaccess file completely from the root area and goto the store index page?

Try using this in your .htaccess file.
You are being returned to index page.

Options +FollowSymlinks


RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /cart/

#OPENCART REWRITES START
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
#OPENCART REWRITES END

Hmmm if I remove the .htaccess file with friendly urls enabled the home page looks the same but the links get page not found. With regular urls same as before, no products and all pages lead home.

I tried the other code, same result.

What I find interesting is that the site behaves almost identically with or without url alias enabled.  :-\

I think the problem is that you have to turn the apache mod_rewrite  module on which does funky stuff with url, aliasing THEM. with out it the pages are not found.

mod_rewrite is on, I have installed in the past and am running other software in other directories that use it. As far as I can tell the page is loading, but the content is empty like its not producing the content. I still can't get it to work right at all. I'm surprised no one else is having similar issues.
