Virtuemart problem after installing myStore

I have installed myStore from the quickstart, with the democontent. Templated looks great, but having a problem with Virtuemart in the backend.

When I go to Virtuemart and click for example on products, I get the error:
The requested URL /administrator/administrator/index.php was not found on this server.

Of course /administrator/administrator/index.php doesn't exist, but /administrator/index.php does. Does anybody have an idea what to do or edit?

Find in the directory ..administratorcomponentscom_virtuemart the file virtuemart.cfg.php - and in this file the code
define( 'URL',
...

and change it for example into

Code: Select all

define( 'URL', 'http://localhost/yourshopadresse/' );

After that the virtuemart-interface will be work fine. You can find also this parameter under Menu(Joomla)->components->VirutueMart->Store->Edit Store: URL

Thanks, it worked.

welcome to gavick both of you

Please open this file:

../administrator/components/com_virtuemart/virtuemart.cfg.php

and replace this line:

Code: Select all

// these path and url definitions here are based on the Joomla! Configuration
define( 'URL', '' );
define( 'SECUREURL', '' );


with

Code: Select all

// these path and url definitions here are based on the Joomla! Configuration
define( 'URL', 'http://yoursite.com' );
define( 'SECUREURL', 'http://yoursite.com' );


In other words, you must define your URL there.

Cheers

Still no change. Is there anything else you could suggest that will work? Please let me know

Hi

This is the only way the VM do not work with quickstart. Please paste here how did You placed that code.

Thank you it's work for me and my new project. Many times is problem with copy/paste it's better simple write your URL in the code and look code provided from gavick team (Seichinha and teitbite).

Thank you guys for suport.

define( 'URL', 'http://localhost/oganicbabyntoddler.com/index.php/' );
define( 'SECUREURL', '' );

Assuming that you are not using live production, working on localhost, on this file ../administrator/components/com_virtuemart/virtuemart.cfg.php your URL/path should be exactly like this:

Code: Select all

define( 'URL', 'http://localhost/oganicbabyntoddler.com/' );
define( 'SECUREURL', 'http://localhost/oganicbabyntoddler.com/' );


Cheers

// these path and url definitions here are based on the Joomla! Configuration
define( 'URL', 'http://www.beerdeliveredfast.com/' );
define( 'SECUREURL', 'http://www.beerdeliveredfast.com/' );

I have installed quickstart and I am getting 404 error whenever I click on a product etc.

I've edited the file as above.

login and pass are default.

could someone help?

Hi

Please send me an access to You site.

I am having no more problems about this on the front end now. My problem is that I am not seen the full component opn the back end. It looks like the instalation did not installed the complete component. Please Gavick people get into my back end and see what I am talking about.

I do not see any images on the back end of the store, I can not make no changes, nothing at all.

Please help here.

Hi

Have You configured VM ?

Please take a look at this post: 90-mystore/80701-problems-with-related-products.html#81239

Hi

Ok. Glad I could help.

worked at first trial for me. i just inserted my url and that was it.

I have followed the instruction from this forum to define the url. I have tried many permultation but cannot get it to work.

Here are my settings.

// these path and url definitions here are based on the Joomla! Configuration

define( 'URL', 'http://toolshopireland.com/' );

define( 'SECUREURL', 'http://toolshopireland.com/' );

This problem started after tech support fixed another problem i had relating to this template. (#NFM-794-92336)

Please advise.

Hi

What exacly was this problem from ticket ? Have You tried with

Code: Select all

http://

Hi,

The post doesnt show the "h ttp://" (i had to include a space after the first h for it to appear). I tried every combination and couldnt get it to work. The ticket was a problem with news shop pro module. This was fixed but at the expense of the virtuemart backend. I have completed many reinstalls and i can never get both nsp module and virtuemart to work together. When i fix one the other fails. To conclude i abandond the nsp module.

The quickstart option is the reason i really like using Gavick templates. I have noticed that older templates seem to have more issues. How about flagging some of these known issues at the download stage so user dont have to scour the forums looking for answers.

Cheers,

Sean

Unless you installed the quickstart in a folder called administrator, that will be your url, /administrator/administrator/index.php

For example:
1. /mypersonalwebsite/administrator/index.php
2. /nameofwebsite/administrator/index.php

If you want to do something to the administrator that is located in control panel of your administrator in joomla and its called user manager, click on it and it will take you to it and then you can change email and user, password..

Hi

I do not think it's this issue. I need to see it. Please send me ftp access to Your site.
