Trouble Installing

[movado]

I have tried to do the install and when it is done ( I enabled ssl - which is working) I click on catalog and nothing shows then if I manually type in https it shows. I gather I need to set redirection somewhere. There seems to be many issues from that point on especially in the administration part wher it changes from http o https and back and forth where I just cannot view pages. Another issue I was having was trying to register, I was told to make chenges to the sendmail_from in my php.ini which i did but does not seem to be working cause I get the warning still. Now when I check th server info from the menu it says that there is no value for the sendmail_from in the php but when I look at phpinfo there it is just what I put in. When I originally set up it told me to turn register globals on which i did and it recognized that so I don't get it. I'm somewhat fustrated . Is there a manual somwhere explaining things a bit?

I think that the problem that you're experiencing may be happening if you have labelled the http connection as https as well.

 

The top lines of includes/configure.php should look something like this (if you're on a shared ssl)

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.yourdomain.com/'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
?define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://servername.yourhost.com/yourdomain.com/'); // (input your server name here) eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

 

The top lines of your admin/includes/configure.php should look something like this (again if you're on a shared ssl)

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.yourdomain.com/'); // eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost should not be empty for productive servers
?define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.yourdomain.com/');
?define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://servername.yourhost.com/yourdomain.com/'); (add name of server you're on)
?define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true'); // secure webserver for catalog module (changed this to true)

 

If you have a full ssl connection then the sll part of these would read simply https://yourdomain.com

 

Hope this helps - Vger
