    Thanks for reading.

    A localhost install which was running fine. In fact the Admin section is quite fine, no issues there.

    However if I try to view the Shop, or anything to do with Products I receive the message

    “The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.”

    To be more specific, I am at the Dashboard and select in the top bar “Visit Site” which works fine. I see the site, products are displayed, info is displayed.

    However if I select “Visit Shop” I get the above message.

    Requested URL https://localhost:80/clothing/shop/
    Physical Path G:\RainbowWeb\clothing.com.au\shop\

    That Physical Path does not exist of course but I have no idea why all of a sudden it is looking there.

    I did decide to upgrade to PHP 7.0 on the local machine, I have moved it back to 5.6 but the problem remains.

    Another example ;

    Requested URL https://localhost:80/clothing/product-category/accessories/
    Physical Path G:\RainbowWeb\clothing.com.au\product-category\accessories\

    Same issue, the path does not exist. It is a normal WP path structure.

    I should mentioned I am running Windows IIS with PHP installed.

    Any suggestions appreciated.
    thanks

  • Check your rewrite rules.

    Also go to the database and see if the URL is correct.

    Thanks for the reply,

    Have checked those thanks.

    I have also set up a new test site locally and it is doing the exact same thing. Very strange. In fact all local sites that have a woocommerce section are doing the same. Ones I haven’t touched for ages.

    I did upgrade PHP to 7 but have switched it back to 5.6. That is the only thing I can think of that I have physically done here.

    thanks

    Found the problem ;

    I was missing the following line in Web.Config;

    <rewrite>
    <rules>
    <rule name=”WordPress: https://localhost/mysite&#8221; patternSyntax=”Wildcard”>
