I tried to do these steps on byethost7 ( free server ), and upload my new joomla site. I fallowed all steps from 1st and 2nd part of this tutorial. But I got error: "unable to open MySql database". Problem was solved when I put in configuration file "sql100{.}byethost7{.}com" (remove {} )where was written "localhost".TY very much for this great tutorial, it was very helpful :)

[FleshMob]

Thanks a million, exactly what I needed.

[khungerford]

Very helpful tutorial. I followed all steps and am still having problems. When I go to look at the newly uploaded site live, it tells me "cannot connect to database". I changed the 'configuration.php' file as needed and double checked all the other database settings including password, username, etc. and no luck.

any thoughts?

H great tutorial, i just had a problem after i done it. none of my links from the main page worked anymore :( maybe its something with SEF404) im desperate please help :(

[10minutejoomla]

@Naughty8utNice It very likely is Sh404sef.

1) Get the latest version of sh404

2) Clear your cache

3) Make sure your htaccess is there

4) Check the links in the "source" of the page.

This is not unusual so if you look in the Joomla forum you will find a solution or at least a hint that applies to your situation. If you still can't make it work, send me an email on Monday.

Cheers

[Naughty8utNice]

Hi thanks a lot I will have a look at that right away.

Your help is much appreciated

@10minutejoomla

Issue solved.. it was the htaccess file, seems i had to use the

"RewriteBase /" command so now all works fine.. Thanks a lot for your help

@10minutejoomla

Just a quick update for anyone that moves to godaddy.

Problem seems to have been the Apache on godaddys server.

Htaccess had to be modified then i had to redirect all links with index.php to root.

I also had to remove the security option from sh404sef since it gives an 401 error thinking maleware is trying to flood the page.

Hope this safes anyone else the 3 days i spent tracing the problems :)

[10minutejoomla]

@Naughty8utNice Just this once I had decided not to bash GoDaddy and naturally I was wrong. GoDaddy's servers are possibly among the least Joomla friendly around. In the Joomla forums there are entire sections dedicated on how to run Joomla on Godaddy.

The reason I didn't bring it up is that I sound like a broken record each time someone has a problem on GoDaddy. Too bad.

You should really consider a Cpanel server

By the way, in a bit I'll test a "cloud" based Cpanel server.

[msafiri85]

Thanks a lot dude very clear tutorial. by the way i like where can i get your template where can i get something like yours with shopping cart?

[10minutejoomla]

@msafiri85 Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. It's nice to know you guys watch the screencast..

The template I am using here is actually the default template for the Virtuemart "All in one" installation of Joomla + Virtuemart. I think it's called Virtuemart E-commerce Bundle. It's the last download on their list.
