New to PrestaShop few problems :)

[SloPresta]

Just installed Prestashop (the latest) on my home linux based server.

Can't get it to work on my web address it's always redirecting me to localhost or I get Connection failed in FF or any other browser! My server is working like it should.

But when I try this on my server (my web address) it works.

If you copied or restored a copy database from other server,

you will need to change the domain name at back office

 

Preferences - SEO & URLs

 

See the section at the bottom of the page, set the domain name to "localhost"

 

If above does not work, you will need to change it in database directly.

Please check it here

 

After you change the setting, please also clear your browser cache!!

If i change the "Shop domain name" and "Shop domain name for SSL" to localhost i get "Page not found".

Because on any other computer its trying to connect to localhost on my shops web address not to the address its self.

 

EDIT: And my items disappear when i select a category in my front-shop they are only visible for few seconds.

Change PS_SHOP_DOMAIN, PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL values in ps_configuration to your Server IP address instead of localhost

 

 select name, value from ps_configuration where value like '192%' 
;+--------------------+--------------+| 
name               | value        |
+--------------------+--------------+| 
PS_SHOP_DOMAIN     | 192.168.1.51 |
PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL | 192.168.1.51 |
+--------------------+--------------+2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Didn't work it's still trying to connect to localhost on any other computer from outside of my network! Its not my server setting because joomla and wordpress work from outside!

 

And still have the problem that all items disappear they are only visible for few seconds on my shop site!

if you are accessing from other computer other than on the same computer,

you need to set to the IP address as "[email protected]" suggested.

 

but please note:

you must use you local IP address instead of your public IP address.

also please do clear your browser's cache
