PayPal Website Payments Pro still asking for SSL...

you need to set both your admin urls to ssl in the /(admin)/includes/configure.php that will take care of the session problem

I ended up going to another hosting that had dedicated ssl so that took care of the log in problem but I am still getting a message in admin when I try to set up paypal pro saying

ALERT: For security reasons, Installation of this module is disabled until your Admin is configured for SSL.

I have ssl configured and working. I have Paypal Express Checkout set up. It says processing. I am in my admin at the https location but still unable to install payments pro

As the all the posts shown here before yours have said, you need to make a small edit to your YOUR_ADMIN/includes/configure.php file, and copy the HTTPS_SERVER definition into your HTTP_SERVER definition, so that both are the same.

ie:
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://www.example.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.example.com');

Don't do the same to your non-admin configure.php. This is only necessary on the admin side.


Is that clear yet?

Thank you, that resolved the issue on my one site. On my other site I have a shared ssl, is it possible to use that I do I have to have a private ssl for it to work

Same principle applies for shared SSL. Copy the defined value from HTTPS_SERVER to HTTP_SERVER, in the admin configure.php file only.

Thank you, that worked
