somethingwitchy Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 What is this and how do I fix it? Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/someth6/public_html/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file. and *how* do you enable SSL on an OS commerce store?

stevel Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 The installation instructions give a hint as to how to do this, but are not clear about it. Try my "Protection of Configuration" contribution for an easy way to deal with it. Enabling SSL differs depending on how your host provides SSL. Fundamentally, you change the HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER define in configure.php to be your SSL base URL and set ENABLE_SSL to true. If you are using your own certificate, that's usually all you need. If you are using a shared certificate, it gets more complicated. There are LOTS of threads on this.

somethingwitchy Posted June 5, 2004 Author Share Posted June 5, 2004 I added your protection of configuration...it still is showing up (error message) What should the CHMOD be? Right now its 644. I changed it to 755 and still saw the darned message... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevel Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 Did you go into the new page in admin and set the files to protected? 444 is what I use for the protection. 755 is unprotected. Note that some hosts won't allow you to set it to 444 via a remote client.
