1&1 / shared SSL or dedicated SSL

[Ragga]

If anyone has 1&1 as there host did they set up the Shared SSL or the Dedicated SSL ? ... i tried to set up the shared one initially but when i clicked on the shopping basket to check out it sent me to a dead link ...

 

 

I rang 1&1 and asked about setting up a dedicated SSL but was told i need to change from my subdomain to a domain ... after talking to the operator i was still none the wiser ...

 

Has anyone experienced anything similar ?

what are you using for your store address? post your url here you are using.

[Ragga]

Address: My Webpage

[Ragga]

or http://www.plumbingukshop.co.uk/catalog

[AlanR]

Turn ssl on again.

[AlanR]

Oh I see, you're using frame forwarding, that kinda sucks.

 

anyway, you'll have to take the www off in front of

 

www.s106956496.websitehome.co.uk/catalog

 

That's wrong.

 

Post the configure.php file without the database details.

[Ragga]

I reinstalled the shared SSL through the 1&1 setup (checkout dosent work still) .. off to get the config files ..

[AlanR]

Why don't you just point www.plumbingukshop.co.uk to that directory?

 

Why use frame forwarding, I don't get it.

The guy who i started the shop with originally has since moved on, he was more the computer orientated type guy, im just picking it up as i go along :'( ...

[AlanR]

Go into the control panel, select domains, and set that domain to point to catalog.

 

It will take a little while for that change to take, maybe a couple hours, sometimes only a few minutes.

 

Then the config files need to be changed like so:

 

Let's worry about catalog only for now, admin later.

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters
// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)
// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.plumbingukshop.co.uk'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://ssl.dontknow.net/plumbingukshop.co.uk');
define('ENABLE_SSL', true); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?
define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.plumbingukshop.co.uk');
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'ssl.dontknow.net/plumbingukshop.co.uk');
define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/);
define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');
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 forget the address of the ssl proxy for UK servers but it will be in the control panel somewhere or we can find it in these forums. That's why I set the dontknow stuff. You will have to set that in the control panel. Somewhere in there they let you set the shared ssl to point to one domain.

 

Poke around and you will find it.

[Ragga]

So where you typed 'ssl.dontknow.net .... that i have to change to something like 'https://sslrelay.com/s106956496.websitehome.co.uk/plumingukshop.co.uk ? ...

 

this info was found in Shared SSL Encryption Setup ..

[Ragga]

I went to the 'Control Panel' and then to domains - destination and changed it from ....../.......... to ........./catalog.........

 

Also i changed the Catalog/includes.config (copy and pasted)

 

the shop has gone a bit strange (i have a backup)

 

plumbingukshop

The change hasn't taken effect yet. It's still frame fowarding, wait a while.

[Guest]

please turn on ssl so we can se what is happening now.

 

it could be your host has given you the incorrect path.

[Ragga]

Im popping out with my wife for dinner.. hopefully when im back the frames have taken effect ... i really appreciate your time and effort Alan ...

 

Mibble we have changed the domain direction and are waiting for it to take effect on the site .... it could take upto 3hrs :'(

 

wife is screaming will be back soon :blush:

[AlanR]

Go back into the control panel and make sure the destination is set as a home directory and not a forward.

 

Like so:

 

[Ragga]

Just checked the setup you posted and it matches exactly, will check again in the morning

[Ragga]

In 1&1 Control Panel in the 'Instant Domains Registration' the 'Plumbingukshop.co.uk' is set to 'Forwarded' with no option of unforwarding ...

 

Alan would it make it easier if i PM you access to to my 1&1 host ?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

If you want.

[AlanR]

I don't have any names registered through 1&1, I use someone else that I've used for years.

 

But in the FAQ they show also fowarding under DNS settings. I don't have the options they show because they don't control the domain names I use.

 

So there's two different places you can select forwarding. Check under DNS.

[Ragga]

If you want.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

I have PM my 1&1 details ...

 

Thanks again
