Installation via Fantastico - All files/images referencing to https instead of http


j00p

Recommended Posts

I installed osc via fantastico on a sub directory (http://domain.com/shop) and I had "Use SSL (secure transactions)" set to 'NO' and "Secure server hostname" set to 'domain.com' under base configuration before you install osc in fatastico.

 

After the installation when I visit the shop at http://domain.com/shop, it:

 

1) doesn't display the images

2) all the formatting is gone

 

When I checked path for images, css file, or even the any other file(s), they are all referencing to https (e.g. https://domain.com/shop/stylesheet.css) instead of http://domain.com/shop/stylesheet.css, and same for all the images and files.

 

I've installed and un-installed it many times but no luck.

 

Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong??? or how to fix this problem?

 

TIA

Edit the includes/configure.php and the admin/includes/configure.php files by downloading them and editing them in a plain text editor like Notepad. Make sure that 'enable_ssl' is set to false in both of them, and that https references are left blank (nothing between the two apostrophies).

I actually posted a thread in Fantastico forums as well and was referred to the following threads:

 

http://forums.cpanel.net/showthread.php?t=37676

http://forums.cpanel.net/showthread.php?t=44208

 

They also said that "Apparently no-one knows why or how to fix it but some CPanel upgrades and apache restarts seem to have helped."

 

So I went through the threads, and then upgraded the cpanel, restarted the apache and it works ... how weired ....

 

But it doesnt seem like a permanent solution either, so will see if the problem comes back again.

 

Appreciate your help though.

I don't know about Fantastico installations, but some of these control panel installations are using overide configure.php files in the /includes/local/ folders. So on those, if making corrections in /includes/configure.php files does't correct something, you might look to see if /inlcudes/local/configure.php exists. If it does, it overides settings made in the primary configure.php files.

Rule #1: Without exception, backup your database and files before making any changes to your files or database.

Rule #2: Make sure there are no exceptions to Rule #1.

So that's where they come from. I always wondered how some people ended up with those.

 

I don't trust any automated installers anyway. You don't know what version you're getting and we've had posts here just recently from people running automated installs then getting "Register Globals is Disabled" messages. Doh!!

 

They're only as good as the people maintaining them and in some cases that's pretty poor.

You are right, some of them are really messed up. I think the proliferation of these control panel installers is why there has been a heavy upsurge in configuration errors that seem to defy correction.

Set both of these lines the same for now

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', ''); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', ''); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

 

put your http address inn for both of them and do not enable ssl.
