Guest Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 How do I enable SSL on my website? I have edited the configure.php on the catalog and admin side and still to no avail. I have checked the server info to make sure that it reflects the DOCUMENT_ROOT installation directory. Any ideas?
BryceJr Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Could you post your admin/includes/configure.php? DO NOT include the database portion.

Ausgirl Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 You need to purchase and install an ssl certificate. And then follow these instructions that will help you
Guest Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 And then follow these instructions that will help you i have followed all the instructions that I can find. I did that before I posted earlier. Here is the code from my admin/includes/configure: <?php define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.digitalconsults.net'); define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.digitalconsults.net'); define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.digitalconsults.net'); define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true', 'https://www.digitalconsults.net'); define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/digitbf1/public_html/');

Guest Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 do I leave the domain name behind it? So should it read: define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true'); //https:www.digitalconsults.net
Guest Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 do I leave the domain name behind it? So should it read: define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true'); //https:www.digitalconsults.net The way you have written it will not cause any problem because it is now commented out.
Guest Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 I have done that. and still the admin portion will not go under SSL. it is still showing http: instead of https: Under what conditions will SSL enable. If I understand correctly, it should enable when a customer starts to build an account.

If I understand correctly, it should enable when a customer starts to build an account. When a customer creates an account, or goes to log in. There is no advantage in enabling ssl for the admin, or for the entire catalog.
germ Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 The Admin won't use SSL unless you request it "from the get-go". Try this link for the Admin login: https://www.digitalconsults.net/admin/login.php Use that link, and the SSL "lock" appears next to the browser address bar. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

germ Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 If that doesn't get you where you need to be, try this: In /admin/includes/configure.php, change this: define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.digitalconsults.net'); TO: define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://www.digitalconsults.net'); In effect, that makes the whole Admin HTTPS. Nothing wrong with that, but you DO NOT want the catalog that way. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.
