Hi all, I just enabled my SSL for the first time, and it seems to be good, I set and change the Https in the configes, both in catalog/includes/ folder, and admin/includes/ but it still shows in the Admin Control Panel that I am not protected by a secure server, down in the left bottom corn box. Is there anything I am doing wrong??

Look in your browser's address bar. Are you accessing your Admin panel via http or https?

 

Just because you have SSL enabled does not mean that it will by used. You have to specificially request to use it. So in this case, your browser's address bar should be something like https://www.yourdomain.com/admin.

The same problem is happening to me:

 

I have the https://www.mydomain.com/admin

In the configs everything is set to https:// (such as DIR_FS_CATALOG and everything else)

Also, the use SSL variable in the configs are set to true

 

However the admin STILL says I'm not protected by SSL.

 

Any ideas?

When i access my control panel with an https url it says "You are protected by a unknown secure SSL connection."

 

Is this something i should worry about it? Is it supposed to be a "known" ssl connection?

What URL do you use to enter?

:unsure:

 

Looks to me like it should be this:

 

https://www.punkbabyclothes.net/shop/admin

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

Looking at the code in the /admin/index.php, I found this:

 

  if (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') {
$size = ((getenv('SSL_CIPHER_ALGKEYSIZE')) ? getenv('SSL_CIPHER_ALGKEYSIZE') . '-bit' : '<i>' . BOX_CONNECTION_UNKNOWN . '</i>');

Which means, if it can't determine this variable from your environment: SSL_CIPHER_ALGKEYSIZE, you'll get the "unknown" message.

 

In your Admin, click on Tools then Server Info, on that page, search for this string: SSL_CIPHER_ALGKEYSIZE

 

My hunch is you won't find it.

If I make HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER in the admin/includes/configure.php to be my SSL URL name, won't that make my whole site SSL ?

 

And what is the difference between HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER in the admin/includes/configure.php and HTTPS_SERVER in catalog/includes/configure.php? The latter is set to use SSL.

 

On the subject of confusing names, in admin/includes/configure.php what's the difference between DIR_WS_ADMIN and DIR_FS_ADMIN ?
