Hi,

This could turn into a long post - I apologise in advance!!

We have an issue with our Konakart installation. We have Konakart installed in Tomcat with Tomcat running on port 8080 in our production environment. We then have apache webserver running on port 80 and forwarding requests to the konakart shop. We were advised to take this configuration because we wanted Wordpress installed on our server so that we could write blogs for our shop.

I dont know if this configuration is the cause of our problem or not but we have problems when the search engine spiders crawl our site. Here is a description of the problem:

When a visitor browses a category URL, like:http://www.golfshopdirect.co.uk/SelectCat.do?catId=39&prodsFound=0&category=Junior our server returns a "302 Temporary Redirect" back to the exact same URL. The first time the page is accessed no content is returned. After the second time it's accessed then the content comes with the page (I verified this with Internet Explorer). Also during this exchange the "JSESSIONID" cookie is reset by our server. The problem is that when the crawler gets this redirect, it sees that it has already visited the URL (because they are identical) and it doesn't visit it again.

This means that none of our product links are added to the search engines. If anyone would like to check that this is indeed the case then they can use this handy URL:

Has anyone experienced this in the past or got any suggestions as to how we could fix the issue?

Many thanks,

Phil

Hi Trevor,

Thanks for the repsonse - you are correct. We spoke to Worldpay support who provided the details of what we need to do.

Basically supply a resultY.html (for successful payments) and a resultC.html file for failed payments. You can upload your own images to embed in these pages.

Below is a useful link containing more information:

Hope this helps people in the future.

Hi,

We are configuring our shop to use Worldpay as our payment provider. We have everything more or less working but I have a question.

Worldpay processes our payment and responds via the WorldPayCallback Action. This updates the order status etc and passes back the Worldpay payment reference. The problem is that the user is left in the worldpay screen instead of being passed back to our application to notify them that the payment has been successful and their goods will be shipped.

Is this the way that Konkart has been designed to work? Is there some way that we can return from worldpay and show a payment confirmation screen of our own design?

Many thanks,

Phil.
