SSL

[techwizard]

Ok, I don't get it. I've been working with this nightmare since it's been installed.

 

I'm still not showing the padlock at the bottom of the screen when I look at the bottom of the admin page.

 

I finally figured out what I was doing in one section and fixed it. But there still are other areas that don't make much sense. I've looked through this here and the little guide that I came across... I'm not comprehending how it's written. I've been okay up to this point but now I'm stuck again.

 

Here's what I got..

 

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

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

define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true'); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'http://basketsnboughs.com');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'https://basketsnboughs.com');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', 'http://basketsnboughs.com/shop/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', 'https://basketsnboughs.com/shop/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', 'http://basketsnboughs.com/shop/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', 'https://basketsnboughs.com/shop/');

 

Site is on a Dedicated IP. Config file has been taken care. What else could I be missing? I'd tried doing the code without the http and https but didn't work that way either. Tried using the www in the one piece, that didn't work.

 

If someone could send me a note off line I'd be greatly appreciated for some guidance.

Ok now I'm at a loss here. it still isn't doing it. when I went to the web site.. http://basketsnboughs.com/shop all images went poof. A question I have is where the image directory is, I can leave that as it is correct? It's listed as images/ now. I'm guessing I don't have to change it so it shows as coming off of the public_html. But then again would I have to in order to make it work?

 

I really don't want to reinstall OSC in order to make this work. Everything was fine up until the point of putting the SSL on the site and now it's gone poof. I'm really confused on this issue. Thanks so much for your guidance on the issue. What could have possibly changed to make it do what it did, any ideas?

Something I've been pondering...

 

Would this work if I reinstalled OSC and clicked the box with SSL being set up? :blink: Don't want to go that route but it's looking as though options are running quite thin. I looked through the files where the images would be coming from and from what I can tell, they should be showing but they are not. I cannot figure out where the conflict is coming in. The only solution that I have been able to figure out is the SSL is causing all of this. It was working fine until the install.

 

That brings me to the question, what if I started all over again but with SSL being checked off since I have the certificate. I'm thinking that should work shouldn't it?

Could someone please answer the question...

In your admin/includes/configure.php file try replacing

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://yourdomain.com');

with

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://yourdomain.com');

This worked for me. Many thanks!

Can I ask a question, I think I understand but I'm curious. :D The https is already written once in the code right. What I'm wondering is what does it do when it's written in place of the http:// Does that basically trick the SSL into making it work, kinda sorta?

 

:blush:

 

Oh speaking of which.. I updated to the latest OSC and was able to get everything back up and running. The only thing that I'm fighting with now is getting the SSL to work so at least now the issues are narrowed down to one specific area. Thanks to everyone who has helped me out so far. :thumbsup:

I GOT IT! YAY!!

 

After hours of putting time into this thing I finally figured it out. Not sure what I did but it worked. I think it was the combination between the updating of OSC and the reinstall of SSL plus a few other miscellaneous fixes. In any case.. I'm tickled!!

 

That's one large milestone just crossed over. YAY!! :thumbsup: (w00t)

I'm still a newbie in the area as well, but from what I gather it forces Admin to redirect to the secured pages. I haven't been able to find much explanation as to WHY it would work this way and not the other, but here's what I did find on the net: "Admin area can only secure the "login" page via SSL unless you set the HTTP_SERVER in your "admin/includes/configure.php" to an SSL URL, in which case the entire admin area will be treated as SSL rather than only selected relevant pages".

Im having issues with my login and checkout. My first login alway gives me 404 error (page not found). When I refresh its fine. When I finalise an order and submit it when i continue it gives me 404 error.

 

My config file looks like this, anyone have any suggestions?

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)

// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)

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

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://ssltw.servers121.com'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('ENABLE_SSL', true); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.accsyspoint.com.au');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'https://ssltw.servers121.com/~accsyspoint/');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/~accsys00/catalog/');
