Losing cookie when moving to remote ssl server

[edesigners64]

Here is my config.php:

 

  define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.mydomain.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://ssl.remotehost.com/~mydirectory'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('ENABLE_SSL', true); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?
 define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'mydomain.com');
 define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'ssl.remotehost.com/~mydirectory');
 define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/store/');
 define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/store/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/store/');
 define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/store/');
 define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');
 define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');
 define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');
 define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');
 define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');
 define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');
 define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');
 define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

 

I've tried several things for 'HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN'...

ssl.remotehost.com, ssl.remotehost.com/~mydirectory, mydomain.com

 

No dice. Cart is always empty when hitting the ssl.

 

Any suggestions?

 

 

Thanks in advance -

Hi Vger -

 

Thanks for the prompt reply. Very much appreciated.

 

I tried the suggested change (on both the normal & ssl servers) but am still experiencing the same problem - an empty cart when shifting to the ssl server.

 

Please let me know if you think of anything else.

 

 

Cheers -

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '');

 

It should work with those settings.

Hello again -

 

I'm sure that I made the change you indicated correctly, but am still losing the cookie.

 

I also left this out in my first post:

 

  define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?
 define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

OK - here's what needed to be done...

 

I did change to:

 

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

 

but was still having problems and losing the cookie when transferring to the ssl server.

 

I ended up setting:

 

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql'); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

 

and it started working immediately.

 

 

Thanks for your help!
