osCommerce 2.2-MS2 released

[stevel]

I see that osCommerce has released "Milestone 2" of the 2.2 development stream. It claims all sorts of improvements, including, mysteriously, better support for shared SSL hosts! Details are scarce, of course.

I've downloaded it but haven't played with it yet. Has anyone else tried it?

I'm using this version. I'm a newbie so I can't tell you much, but ssl is working for me. It wasn't too hard to set up either. I had a couple of questions that I posted on this forum and a couple on the oscforum, but that is it. I haven't changed the apprearance much, but if you want to browse the ssl portion of my catalog it is located here:

The only bug I have seemed to notice is that I can't make changes with the admin file tool. I have to make all changes via ftp.

All other issues, the bug has been me.

Have a great weekend!

Looks nice...

The SSL part seems to be the same as in earlier versions - I don't know what they changed. Still waiting for PowWeb to implement the shared SSL solution that doesn't require funny port numbers...

Found my first bug in MS2.2, solution came from the osc forums.

In catalog/includes/functions/html_output.php, replace:

old:
$link = str_replace('?', '/', $link);
$link = str_replace('&', '/', $link);
$link = str_replace('=', '/', $link);

new:
$link = str_replace('?', '?', $link);
$link = str_replace('&', '&', $link);
$link = str_replace('=', '=', $link);

If you don't do this, and you have "Search engine friendly URLs" enabled, you'll get an error on every subpage.
