The extract below is part of the readme.txt file that comes together with the download zip, as a guide to both if you are having any installation problem (on your specific server) and if you are having a problem to run Amazon Store manager from a sub-directory of your domain.

-------------------------------------
If you use SEO mode, and it gives you an error, please open .htaccess and find this line:
RewriteEngine on
Replace it with these 3 lines:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
Change RewriteBase to point to the folder the script is installed in. For example, if the
script is located at http://www.yoursite.com/amazon/ then change RewriteBase to look like
this:
RewriteBase /amazon/
Note: If you decide to use seo mode, then make sure you upload the contents of .htaccess
to your server as it is included. This will configure the script to run in Search Engine
Friendly mode.
Feel free to distribute this as you wish.
Enjoy.
Tha same applies that when you are instaling Amazon Store Manager in a folder or sub-directory you must also set the configutation so that ASM points to the named folder. Foe example if your installation is in the /shopping/ folder, then you config.php file must reflect the direction :
If you are using ASM in the SEO mode, an aditional configuration setup is also done to the .htaccess file. Edit the .htaccess file with your favorite editor and change the following line from
RewriteEngine On
to
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /shopping/
