Media servers

[petert]

Been trying to get Media servers working. The instructions are sadly not 100% clear.

It kinda works, if I look at the html source of a page I can see that images are requested from the ccc server, but somehow the path to where to find the image is wrong.

 

These are some of the errors I encounter.

questions:

 

1) do I have to put all the files in their directories? IE

ccc.server/img

ccc.server/themes

ccc.server/modules

The documentation just says: "Copy your media files to that host's server. This means that the CDN server must contain an exact copy of the following folders from you store's main server: /img, /themes et /modules."

 

2) I copied the .htacces file from the Prestashop server to the ccc server, but that didn't help either.

Sadly I am not the only one not getting this to work....

BTW: I use rsync cli and cron to update the ccc server with the changed and new files.

The cli is: 

rsync -avzPR img modules themes *@ccc1.*.*:~/public_html

You have to make sure that the user rsync runs as is allowed passwordless access to the ccc server.
