Hi all,

I've been searching through the forum archives and found similar issues with previous versions, but none reported with 1.3.0. Maybe I've just become blind while trying to get the site fixed at Midnight. :D

Anyways, after a fresh install of OpenCart I opted for SEO URL optimization. I removed all the sample products and categories and then added my own. I made sure to include the keyword so it would work, but that didn't seem to do the trick. Whenever I click on any category it 404s. I thought well maybe I just needed to add some products and populate the site a little, but nope that didn't do it either. So now here I am.

I have double checked all my settings, mod_rewrite is enabled on apache, I renamed the .htaccess, but no success. I hope someone will be able to shed some light on the situation. Thank you for your time.

I cannot allow the site to be running with the error unless it is absolutely necessary. I have taken screenshots for you though. If you need anymore please do let me know.

It works you just don't know how to configure your server. many other people have including the one on my demo.

How can you say its not working when you can clear see its working on other peoples sites?

Do some more research instead of bothing people!!

Well my apologies sir, I was just attempting to understand what I was doing wrong and was not blaming OpenCart at all for the problem. All I wanted was a little help in configuring the server.

Yes, I did, thanks. Anyways I found the problem after looking through some apache error logs. In 000-default under sites-enabled for the vhost I needed to have AllowOverride set to All in order to allow the use of .htaccess files.

Thanks again,
Ray
