livefooduk Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 My server (and I am not alone in this) does not recognise $request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; So when on an https page all the images are called from the http address so we get no gold padlock and a security alert :cry: I have been working on this a long time but have now got the best solution :D it will only work if you have a different subdomain for your secure pages eg my main site is livefoodshop.co.uk my secure site is sslreay.com/secure.livefoodshop.co.uk This is for the MS1 release in catalog/includes/aplication_top.php find // set the type of request (secure or not) $request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; and replace with // set the type of request (secure or not) if ($SERVER_NAME == 'secure.livefoodshop.co.uk') { $request_type = 'SSL'; } obviously change 'secure.livefoodshop.co.uk' to the name of your server :) Best wishes Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livefooduk Posted March 7, 2003 Author Share Posted March 7, 2003 Whoops! Didn't realise it was thowing out errors on non SSL pages you need this below the previous code changes if ($SERVER_NAME == 'livefoodshop.co.uk') { $request_type = 'NONSSL'; } obviously change 'livefoodshop.co.uk' to the name of your non ssl server address Best wishes Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livefooduk Posted March 18, 2003 Author Share Posted March 18, 2003 Did you put in both statements in catalog/application_top.php ie: // set the type of request (secure or not) if ($SERVER_NAME == 'your.secure.domain.co.uk') { $request_type = 'SSL'; } if ($SERVER_NAME == 'your.domain.co.uk') { $request_type = 'NONSSL'; } If you did try this. Make a file called test.php and in it put <?php //test.php echo $SERVER_NAME; ?> upload that to your catalog directory. Then first call it from your https address (in my case this would be https://sslrelay.com/secure.livefoodshop.co...atalog/test.php and the page will return 'secure.livefoodshop.co.uk' ) that is the server name to put where I have put 'your.secure.domain.co.uk' Then call the same file from your http address (in my case this would be http://www.livefoodshop.co.uk/catalog/test.php and the page will return 'livefoodshop.co.uk' ) that is the server name to put where I have put 'your.domain.co.uk' If both are the same then you will get that error and my method will not work for you :cry: Best wishes Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 another method you can use is <?php if ($HTTPS !='on' ) { $request_type = 'NONSSL'; } else { $request_type = 'SSL'; } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 hi guys followed your over thread concerning this think my server could be misconfiguerd my ssl site is https://www1.securesiteserver.co.uk/thetestbeduk when running the test script the from root as above + /test.php host name is only www1.securesiteserver.co.uk i apper to have lost my name at he end also when trying to run the script from the the catalog directory i just get an internal error running from normal http://www.thetestbeduk.co.uk/test.php is fine and from /catalog/test.php :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 another problem that may not help the sitation using donhost is the path to the ssl server is diferent than normal eg the path to it's web space when accessed over SSL would be: /fs/home/4/j/o/joebloggs/public_html where as with normal and setup with in os is jest home/j/o/joebloggs/public_html :!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livefooduk Posted March 26, 2003 Author Share Posted March 26, 2003 I think this will still work for you if you put this in application_top.php // set the type of request (secure or not) if ($SERVER_NAME == 'www1.securesiteserver.co.uk' ) { $request_type = 'SSL'; } if ($SERVER_NAME == 'www.thetestbeduk.co.uk' ) { $request_type = 'NONSSL'; } instead of // set the type of request (secure or not) $request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL'; Let me know how you get on. Best wishes Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 another method you can use is <?php if ($HTTPS !='on' ) { $request_type = 'NONSSL'; } else { $request_type = 'SSL'; } ok changed site and now trying the above on http://www.thetestbeduk.co.uk/catalog/default.php no gold padlock and trying the other on http://www.newcompserve.co.uk/catalog/default.php has a mind of its own keep getting the error Error!

nodefinition Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 I am also on 1&1 and have been experiencing similar problems as everyone else in this thread. jchasick wrote: another method you can use is <?php if ($HTTPS !='on' ) { $request_type = 'NONSSL'; } else { $request_type = 'SSL'; } This method worked for me but I think it may be slightly incorrect, I belive the request type is the wrong way round: if ($HTTPS !='on' ) { $request_type = 'SSL'; } else { $request_type = 'NONSSL'; } This seems to work okay for me, however there may still be a problem after login showing the address details? It needs further testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
