Default Tax Error and Logging in Problem

I have had several issues come to my attention during this hoiday season.

The first being that customers can not log back in for a second time. I have checked and rechecked my configuration files and they are fine. I have noticed that the path that OSCMAX is creating is what seems to be causing the error.

I also have found that you can not use flash in the main_page.tpl.php is causes a security error.

And last but not least for some reason it looks like OSCMAX is taking the subtotal and subtracting the shipping and then charging tax on that total. Any ideas? All my setting are fine and it has only happened twice that I know of.

Any help with the above issues would be great. I have searched the entire site with several different keywords with no answers.

Thanks in advance.

Default RE: Tax Error and Logging in Problem

Hi,

If customers cannot login to your site a second time, you have something set up incorrectly. Check your path settings in the configure.php files and sessions settings. This is a setup problem on your part, not a problem with the osCMax application itself.

Yes, you can use flash in the templates. You need to switch between http and https in your coding. Remember, it is a dynamic app, so you need to code with this in mind. Static urls will not work with ssl.

Your last issue is again most likely a setup problem somewhere in the admin with shipping or tax zones. This is not a problem with the applcation, but a problem with the setup.

Default RE: Tax Error and Logging in Problem

I am including my configure.php because I took the link that pulls the error and after I take out the path OSC makes it works fine. So I am at a loss.3

My configure.php

<?php

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?
define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql'); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'
?>

Flash buttons work fine. I am guessing it's the macromedia link in the coding of the flash buttons that is calling the security error. Do you know if it is possible to get rid of those links and still have it work? Not a Flash Wiz.

The only country is US the only tax zone is SC and the only tax is 6%. How can it be a configuration error if it has only happened twice in 6 months and there are many orders that are fine?

Thanks for your quick responce any other help is greatly appreciated.

Here is what the problem is:
You have:
Code:
define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.gullahgourmet.net'); 
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'https://67.18.52.66/~debbie'); 
define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/'); 
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/'); 
define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); 
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/~debbie/catalog/');
It should be:

Code:
define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'gullahgourmet.net'); 
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '67.18.52.66'); 
define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/'); 
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/'); 
define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); 
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');
You also need to change this:
Code:
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://67.18.52.66');
to this:
Code:
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://67.18.52.66/~debbie');

You should look at those 2 orders and figure out what is different about them from all the others. Then start looking at your configuration. If everything was setup fine, you would not be getting this problem.
