SEO Problem Help

General General Questions

Appologies, I think i posted this in the wrong section originally, this applies to the latest version of CS Cart.



I have activated the SEO add on, however when i click on a product it goes to 404 - File or directory not found.



I currently have this in .htaccess

DirectoryIndex index.html index.php



Options +FollowSymLinks



RewriteEngine on

Some hostings require RewriteBase to be uncommented

Example:

Your store url is [url]http://www.yourcompany.com/store/cart[/url]


I have already uninstalled and re installed the SEO so i know its active, it just will not go to the product page. If i disable SEO it works

# So "RewriteBase" should be:
# RewriteBase /store/cart
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !\.(png|gif|ico|swf|jpe?g|js|css)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . index.php?sef_rewrite=1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^(.*)images/product/(.*) $1watermark.php?src=images/product/$2
RewriteRule ^(.*)images/category/(.*) $1watermark.php?src=images/category/$2
RewriteRule ^(.*)images/detailed/(.*) $1watermark.php?src=images/detailed/$2
RewriteRule . index.php?sef_rewrite=1 [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} .*\/catalog\/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html !-f
RewriteRule . index.php?sef_rewrite=1 [L,QSA]

So “RewriteBase” should be:

[COLOR=“Red”]# RewriteBase /

RewriteBase /store/cart[/COLOR]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !.(png|gif|ico|swf|jpe?g|js|css)$

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

but wuld that mean that the directories would have to exist for store then cart, all the files are in the root directory hence the RewriteBase /

Use the default .htaccess. If that doesn’t work, check to see if mod rewrite is enabled on your server.

I have used the default and still no joy. Mod rewite is enabled on the windows server as I have a joomla site running and that mod rewite works
