HTTPS in /admin

[billfwi]

Can anyone suggest where I can find the configuration to set https in /admin. I go to https://mysite.com/admin and I'm in SSL, but every link within admin goes to http rather than https so when I click on orders, or customer or any other link in /admin I go out of SSL to plain ol' http.

 

Here's my /admin/configure.php

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://mysite.com'); // eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost should not be NULL for productive servers

define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://mysite.com');

define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://mysite.com');

define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true'); // secure webserver for catalog module

define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); // where your pages are located on the server. if $DOCUMENT_ROOT doesnt suit you, replace with your local path. (eg, /usr/local/apache/htdocs)

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/');

define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_ADMIN);

 

 

Thanks in advance.

If your first http define is set to https then you should be using secure links in your admin. Do you have your own ssl cert? If so then it should be working, if you are on a shared cert then you need to use the shared cert path that your hosting company provided.

thanks for the tip... that worked great for me. I was wondering how to do this.

The exact same is happening for me. I am using my own SSL cert. Any other suggestions?

 

The site was originally and bulit on an unsecure server. Would this make difference?

 

Many thanks, Rachel

Well, I am using my own SSL cert and I can go to the admin panel in https, but all the links in the admin panel, when you place you mouse on them, go to http NOT https. I cannot find the location that designates those links as https.

try modifying the tep_href_link function to use 'SSL' as the default connection.

Could you please elaborate on that?? Where do I find this tep_href_link to edit? I did a search on this in the code and I came up with about 50 different files using it. There must be one place to change all of those??

 

Even my server tech support could not figure this one out...I am still waiting for their response.
