NOVICE WEBMASTER IN NEED OF SOME HELP.
I'm having trouble with my osCMax Shopping cart.
I cannot get the SEO URLs to work properly with XAMPP.
I'm using WinXP Pro with all updates.
I'm using XAMPP (basic package) version 1.6.4
My shopping cart is Full version release of "osCMax 2.0 RC3"
downloaded from
http://oscdox.com/Downloads-req-viewdownload-cid-6.html
I'm sure that some settings are not done correctly.
An answer would be greatly appreciated.
As many users have this exact same problem.
Here is a copy of an email sent to osCMax tech support
(They didn't respond, yet.)
Dear Tech Support,
I recently downloaded and installed the Full version release of osCMax 2.0 RC3 in .zip format.
I'm having trouble getting the SEO Urls to work properly.
Everything else seems to be working properly,
I haven't noticed any other issues.
When I have these settings, you can't visit any products on my page,
When set, I can see the new URLs in the category listings when you rollover onto the category links, but when I click on them,
I get an error stating that these pages are outdated.
Page 404 error.
SEO URLs Settings from the Admin Section (That don't work.)
Title Value
Enable SEO URLs? true
Choose URL Type Rewrite
Filter Short Words 3
Reset SEO URLs Cache false
When I reset "enable SEO URLs?" back to "false".
Everything works fine again.
I'm running my Computer on WinXP Pro with all updates.
And I'm using XAMPP as my Server with PHP 4.4.7 running.
PHP 5 doesn't work well with some other programs.
So, I'd like to keep PHP 4.4.7 running on this machine.
Am I missing something? or Do I have something set wrong in my PHP?
I don't know I'm new at this webmastering thing.
This is the first time I've actually running a site from my home.
Can you help me? Because I think this is why my site isn't being indexed properly.
I see none of my products in the Category listing showing up in the search engines.
I appreciate your time, any suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks Sincerely
Mike Montgomery
