Security certificate

[Guest]

I have installed and setup osCommerce and setup Standard paypal in my pofile on the paypal website. Set the sandbox on the paypal configuration in osCommerce. Now I get the following error.

 

There is a problem with this website's security certificate.

 

 

The security certificate presented by this website was issued for a different website's address.

If you arrived at this page by clicking a link, check the website address in the address bar to be sure that it is the address you were expecting.

When going to a website with an address such as https://example.com, try adding the 'www' to the address, https://www.example.com.

If you choose to ignore this error and continue, do not enter private information into the website.

William,

 

 

Jim has compiled a whole thread on how to implement an SSL with osCommerce. You can find it here

Be sure the SSL URL in the /catalog/includes/configure.php matches the domain the SSL cert. was issued to.

 

Specifically this line:

 

  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://YOUR_SSL_URL_GOES_HERE.com');

 

If you haven't purchased and installed a SSL cert. you'll need to check with your host to see if they offer shared SSL, and if so what your SSL URL needs to be.
