Can't open any SSL page

[Guest]

I have an Apache Web server running with SSL.

All seems OK.

 

I installed the osCommerce package and can access files and

web locations fine when using only "http"

 

If I configure my 2 configure.php files to use SSL I cannot access

the "login" or "create account" pages.

 

I can create accounts when I configure to not use SSL

 

Is there anything more than just the "catalog/includes/congigure.php"

and "admin/includes/configure.php" files to modify for use

of SSL?

 

I have found plenty of examples of these here but none have worked.

It just seems that there is probably something else I need to do.

Obviously it's not okay.

 

Having Open SSL support on a web server is not the same as having ssl on a website on the server - for that you need to generate or purchase an ssl certificate.

I should have mentioned that in addition to having an SSL enabled webserver, I had also generated the certs according to the OpenSSL documantation. I had tested the certs using the openssl commands recommended in the openssl documantation. I was able to open a browser and import the public cert successfully.

I am not sure exactly how to determine where the SSL problem is, it is either with my SSL config or osCommerce config. But if the only 2 files needed to be edited for SSL support in osCommerce are "includes/configure.php" and "admin/includes/configure.php" then my problem is probably with my own SSL config. Since I have generated my own root cert, do I need to do anything different in osCommerce than if I had bought one?

 

Thanks,

The only two files you need to edit are the two configure.php files. It may be that your system has an atypical ssl setup, and other files need further modification. There is a thread started by AlanR about getting SSL to work. I don't have the link to it but you should be able to find it.

 

If your self-generated cert is for testing only then that's okay - but it's of no use at all on a live webshop. Every single https page will throw up a warning that the cert is not to be trusted.

Thanks Vger, I do believe that it is my SSL setup.

Thanks again for the info and quick response........
