I have a had a few friends bring this up as well but I just loaded 6.4.1.a B2B on our test server and when you go to Product Catalog
Categories/Products even after products are loaded there is nothing shown on the screen other than the header and Admin menu!

Has anyone else seen this or had or heard of this issue?

What causes it?

When I wake up today I will check the data base and see if I can locate anything there!

Just on the off chance,
3 Things,
1: the products are not viewable to guests.
2: the products are only viewable to Wholesale visitior,
3: the products are only viewable to retail visitors.

If you have not set this in either the customer account, what they can see, or you have not set the customer cat in the product info, they will not show..


And without being negative, as will always help where can, if you have B2B, present these problems to CRE via the ticket or live chat.. of course if you paid for the B2B version that is..

Well first off if you will go back and read my post you will find you did not read let alone answer the question. But in your defense I did leave out one key word!

I have a had a few friends bring this up as well but I just loaded 6.4.1.a B2B on our test server and when you go to ADMIN, Product Catalog, Categories/Products even after products are loaded there is nothing shown on the screen other than the header and Admin menu! ( sorry TheLango the reason I did mention anything else was because everything else works.)

Of course I have never paid for CRE LOADED PRO or B2B I am sure if you will ask KIRK, Sabrina, Kanesh a few others in the CRE staff and even Sal they can inform you of such

I even think the serial number may be bad since I had to ask them to reset it a while back as well.

But now back to the real users and people who may actually have a clue as to what they are talking about.

Do you even know how to load it for testing purposes with out having to load all the products, and other config info?

Now the reason I attempted this was because a few people mentioned it happening and I finally installed and got it to happen now I am going to locate the answer and post it here for others to use since I actually see it nowhere.

In my Defense....

Two words come quickly to mind...

FUCK YOU.... sorry three.. PRICK



I probably know more about this cart than you ever will..

Just search throught he code and look for "Lango"..

LOL now your intelligence is really hanging out for all to see!

drm we see this problem once in a great while on a site that has lots and lots of products, and the server hosting it has kinda limited resources

Try these things

In the end file application_top_admin_cre_setting.php add the following code:
ini_set('memory_limit', '50M');

This file is located at: /admin/includes/

Next in admin/categories.php

comment out this code

/* $image_dir = $manage_image->getDirs();
$image_file = $manage_image->getFiles('');
$file_dir = '<option value="">/</option>';
foreach($image_dir as $relative => $fullpath) {
if (substr($relative, -1) == '/'){
$relative = substr($relative, 1);
$file_dir .= '<option value="' . rawurlencode($relative) . '">' . $relative . '</option>';
}
}*/

Please try the above, it may help you

Kiirk,

Thanks for this answer I will look into this. I was thinking it may have something to do with the Database as to test I was importing a 6.4.1 database into the 6.4.1.a cart and was thinking it might have been a bad import. But you are correct in that it only was happening when I was importing all of our products.

I will try this and post back here so even the people who think

"I probably know more about this cart than you ever will.."

will even know if it worked and be at peace with the world again!

Thanks again Kirk.

This did not seem to help.

I can see the products on the Cart side just fine it is only on the admin side you cannot.
I have found out that if I click on the
Categories/Products

inside the admin / Product Catalog section it will show but very slowly sometimes.

There is no pattern to that way but straight from Product Catalog there is a pattern!

No products or Categories show up!

Thanks again KIRK

Here's what I did to fix:

Check the first line of your admin/categories.php file for an md5 check.

Mine appeared as:
<?php if(md5(md5($_GET['p'])) != "24d053cdcsdsdfsd0fsdfsd43fd1ebd9") exit; ?>

Strip it out so the first line of code starts with:
<?php

Alternately, replace admin/categories.php (file) from a fresh test install on the same server.
