Shared SSL Certificate Setup

[FlyingMonkey]

I can't seem to figure out what is wrong with the way i setup our shared SSL. When I try to checkout it goes to the cookie error page. We are using 1and1 shared hosting. I setup our configure.php as follows:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://ssl.perfora.net/vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

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

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.vegaschickclothing.com');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'ssl.perfora.net');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/vegaschickclothing.com/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES_LRG', 'images/lrg/');

define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');

define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');

define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');

define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');

define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');

define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');

define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

'https://ssl.perfora.net/vegaschickclothing.com'

 

You should remove the .com from this line, and anywhere else where you already have the HTTPS addresss ( ssl.perfora.net)

 

do that and see where you are after that.

Thanks for the reply.

 

Removing the .com causes an

 

"Error: SSL proxy not configured!

 

The SSL proxy service is not availabe for the requested domain.

If you are the domain owner, you can enable it through your control panel."

 

Any other ideas?

I have just spent days sorting this out. Here is your problem

 

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'ssl.perfora.net');

 

change it to this

 

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

 

and your HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH should be the same as for HTTP.

 

Hope this helps - Vger

Thank you, I just changed it to:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://ssl.perfora.net/vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

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

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.vegaschickclothing.com');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

 

But, there's still no luck. =(

I have a 1&1 set up using shared ssl working flawlessly with settings like this.

 

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://ssl.perfora.net/vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

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

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.vegaschickclothing.com');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

Did you define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', ? I installed in /shop/, here are my configure.php settings:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://mydomain.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

Get rid of the re-direct. If you want to be in root move the files to root.

The redirect was designed, so that an opening page could be added. But do you think it's causing the problem?

Post the exact, current, catalog/includes/configure.php file

HTH,

EricK

I have no idea what is wrong still... It seems to use the ssl certificate correctly for everything else except for anything that actually needs to be secure.

 

here's what i have in my file (and yes, i did upload it to the right directory):

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)

// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://ssl.perfora.net/vegaschickclothing.com'); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

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

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'vegaschickclothing.com');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'ssl.perfora.net/vegaschickclothing.com');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES_LRG', 'images/lrg/');

define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');

define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');

define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');

define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');

define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');

define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');

define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');

 

define('DIR_WS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', 'pub/');

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/homepages/3*/d1********6/htdocs/public_http/vegas_chick_clothing/catalog/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');

[AlanR]

This line is wrong.

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/homepages/3*/d1********6/htdocs/public_http/vegas_chick_clothing/catalog/');

 

It should be:

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/homepages/3*/d1********6/htdocs/vegaschickclothing/catalog/');

 

 

 

and put a return after

 

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

 

so you've got one define per line. It shouldn't matter but it's sloppy.

[AlanR]

There's two other tweaks you'll probably need to make but I want to see the site working right before I'll post them.

[FlyingMonkey]

This line is wrong.

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/homepages/3*/d1********6/htdocs/public_http/vegas_chick_clothing/catalog/');

 

It should be:

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/homepages/3*/d1********6/htdocs/vegaschickclothing/catalog/');

 

 

 

and put a return after

 

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/');

 

so you've got one define per line. It shouldn't matter but it's sloppy.

I've completed the changes, but please note the site is stored in '/homepages/3*/d1********6/htdocs/public_http/vegaschickclothing/catalog/

 

where public_http is a self made directory. The site still gives a cookie usage error. =(

 

Here's a copy of the latest configure.php

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters

[AlanR]

This can not be right.

 

/homepages/3*/d*****6/htdocs/vegas_chick_clothing

 

I have 1&1 accounts and I know how they work.

 

Keep on playing with it but until you do it right it ain't gonna work.

 

where public_http is a self made directory

 

This is fun. If you've got your site in a folder you created you'd need to specify that full path. ie:

 

www.vegaschickclothing/http_docs/

 

Why would/do you do that? Just to be creative?

I just double checked it, and copy and pasted it from the SSH terminal. =( from /homepages down to catalog/

I just thought, it would keep the file structure neater. 1and1 points to /homepages/3*/d*****6/htdocs/public_http/vegas_chick_clothing/

 

when it opens vegaschickclothing.com then it redirects to the catalog.

i'm not sure what you mean by, needing: www.vegaschickclothing/http_docs/

[AlanR]

Drop these three lines into a file named phpinfo.php and put it into your vegaschickclothing directory.

 

<?

phpinfo();

?>

 

lemmee know after you've done it. Bump the thread.

[AlanR]

Cool, you're inventing a file structure. Too bad the server doesn't know that. Or understand it.

 

Any folder you put below the server root is going to be part of a path you must specify.

[FlyingMonkey]

http://www.vegaschickclothing.com/phpinfo.php

 

Thank you!

[AlanR]

Scroll down to Environment.

 

How do you have dns set up for vegaschickclothing? Did the 1&1 system set it up or is a forward? How did you specify the shared ssl?

 

vegas_chick_clothing is not your domain name.

 

You'd have lots fewer problems if you followed standards.

[AlanR]

If I were you I'd scrap your "special" public_http folder and put the primary folder right under htdocs where most people do. Or get used to looking at the cookie usage page.

 

It's like someone on a server that has public_http as their normal server root adding another under it.

 

like: public_http/public_http/mydomain.com
