myStore VM Component issue

Change your online store into modern look with myStore eCommerce VirtueMart Joomla template - discussion forum.

In a newly installed 2.0.6 release (still on localhost) when clicking on any link in the VM component backend, the system looks for the files in the wrong path, it always looks for and administrator folder INSIDE an administrator folde, liker:

sitename/administrator/administrator/index.php?......

If I manually delete the "double administrator" in that link then the system finds the necessary file of course, but that constant manual fix is a little tedious. How can that be fixed?

after reading through many post here and on the VirtueMart forum, which are in 90% useless and a waste of time because they hardly ever reach satisfying conclusions but just break off at some stage, I played around with various possible scenarios to fix this issue myself...

As I am still working on a local host, that's the change I needed to make to fix all the issues in one hit:

The issue is related to the lines 65 to 69 in the virtuemart.cnf.php....... open the file and make the following changes

(IMPORTANT to use "http..." because WITHOUT it and only referencing "localhost...." it did NOT work for me...!!! The leading "http..." is IMPORTANT)



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

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

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

P.S.: And I can also see now why so many posts seem to be useless...... UNLESS YOU TRICK THE SYSTEM (!!!!) I just see that the most important information, that the "http..." needs to precede the following path, is being CUT OFF / DELETED in the message and I trust that was the same with may messages/replies before..... many people try to explain but the forums/websites CUT OFF the most important part of the solution which means that the message you will often read is altered, incomplete, wrong and useless......

Hi

Please don't take me wrong, but this issue was already talk thousands of times on the forum.
You just need to search a little bit.

Hi
Yipee ..thank you. it worked.(I left the / off the end)

To the Gavick team. I have been using Joomla for about 6 months every day and this Template is sooooo coool BUT...man alive are there issues to overcome and hurdles to jump.
I understand that the Forum is here to assist us all but where and when is that manual going to be available (sorry to ask again, as others have). I have taken 2 days to find what i'm looking for here. I realize its my problem to get upskilled.

No offense..I just cant wait to get this Template working. Thanks

glad it helped, denime...

just read the sole reply from GK in this tread and you'll see the attitude typical for 99% of all Joomla related sites... (I keep my mouth shut of what else I think about all of that "culture"......)
