Admin values not updating

[Bananabill]

I'm new to zen cart. I just installed it to day. I've spent most of the day working on redirecting http to https. Now, when I try to update in value through admin, it just leaves the value blank.

This is what I've done so far:
1. used a .htaccess redirector
2. changed the false to true in includes/config.php and admin/includes/config.php.

Site: www.72hourgear.com

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Although what I suggest may not solve your problem immediately, it seems like you haven't updated your configure.php files to reflect the change from non-www to www.

Try the following changes to your configure.php files first:

/includes/configure.php

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.72hourgear.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.72hourgear.com'); 

/admin/includes/configure.php

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.72hourgear.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.72hourgear.com');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.72hourgear.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.72hourgear.com');

Your whole site seems to be under https now.

Generally, only the login/create account page and the checkout pages are secured, and Zencart does this automatically if your SSL cert is installed and the two configure.php files are edited correctly.

ok, so if the config files are updated, then I don't need a redirecter .htaccess?

That should be the case, unless your host does some offbeat things.

I'd try it without the redirect after you edit the config files. Should work.

[Bananabill]

do I want to change the false to true in this statement?
// Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?
define('ENABLE_SSL', 'false);

on both config files?
