Shared SSL

[jmclaren7]

Ive been learning alot about zen cart as i open my store, i now have an authorize.net account and im looking to use the 'onsite' method of entering credit card information.

ive been experimenting using the shared SSL provided by my hosting company, but during the checkout proccess my browser displays the "display secure and non-secure" message, i answer ok, and then i see that the authorize.net site's something.dll is loading but when its done and loads the next zencart page it goes to the login page and never completes the transaction.

authorize.net shows "Captured/Pending Settlement" but the order is never placed in zen cart.

my admin and then main configuation files look like this:

the format at my hosting company for ssl goes like this: https://serversname.snhdns.com/~acc/


define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://oneshoelace.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://alderaan.snhdns.com/~aju/');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://oneshoelace.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://alderaan.snhdns.com/~aju/');


define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://oneshoelace.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://alderaan.snhdns.com/~aju/');





can anyone tell me if these settings look right?

Who is the host?

i think i figured it out, and i feel like an idiot, however i still dont understand so perhaps you could help with that part.

the problem i had was experienced using the SIM module in onsite mode, i switched to AIM and it works, however i dont understand. a couple questions:

1. Is shared ssl known to have issues?

2. Does it now work because AIM can "maintain a session"

3. In what way does AIM use SSL (because now that its in aim, i never see the browser switch to https)
