That can happen if you have this in your configure file:

 

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

But you don't have a SSL cert. installed.

 

Without the SSL cert. it should be:

 

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

Many hosts have shared SSL cert's you can use but you'd need to ask them how you need to access it.

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

Yes, that is your problem.

 

The code change you need to make is in this file==> /includes/configure.php

Here's a page about UNIX permissions:

 

Unix Permissions

 

You'll probably need to change the permissions ot 644 to be able to edit it.

 

This is usually done thru the Control Panel provide by your Web Host (NOT OSCOMMERCE!).

 

Sometimes FTP program will work, but most of the time NOT.

 

Since all control panels are not "created equal" I can't give the exact clicks you need to execute to get there.

 

If you can't figure it out, ask your Host.

 

Before you change the permissions be sure to write down what they are now, then change them back to that setting after making any edits.

 

And just a word of caution: Dont use the File Mangler Manager in your osC Admin to edit PHP files.

 

It's a security risk you should get rid of and it can screw up PHP files in a heartbeat.

 

You should either use the file editor in your Host Control Panel, or download the file(s) to be changed to your PC and edit with a TEXT editor like Notepad or Wordpad (NOT WORD!).

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

No problem.

;)

 

That's what I'm here for,

 

If this is your first web site and foray into the the world of e-commerce let me say it's a steep learning curve.

:blush:
