can't get ssl to work

[littlewiggles]

Hi I'm new to osC and am trying to create an online shop with my own design, my web host provided osC as part of the package but I am unable to get a ssl, i have shared ssl enabled on my web host and i have edited the configure.php file but it stills says that ssl is not active in my osC admin. I would also like to run paypal web pro(uk version) and have attempted to install the module but i dont how to run the mysql files. I would be really greatful for any help.

for your admin ssl, you need to edit your catalog\admin\includes\configure.php. Set the server to be secure.

 

instead of:

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

 

you do:

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

 

Finally you should use the latest osc version from here:

your host's code can be outdated.
