SSL Issue/Problem

[derek.b]

After a bit more searching I came across a thread which linked to running this test below, is it of any relevance as it means very little to me!

Ok I have just set it so the site is https throughout, I know this is not really a fix but at least the site is working without errors.

Is there a downside to a site being encrypted sitewide?

Cheers

Is there a downside to a site being encrypted sitewide?

1. Encrypted pages take slightly longer to deliver onto the visitors PC.
2. https pages will get listed in search engine results, but https pages do not get "Page Rank" from Google.

You should contact your hosting company about this. It does not appear to be a problem wth the site, or with the SSL Certificate. It does seem that some kind of redirect is taking place, and this may be a hosting issue.

hi friends i am Raj, i have my site on zencart version 1.3.9,i am using the apparel boutique template,i have a private SSL Certificate the problem is that only the home page shows with https without errors and all other pages show errors,can any one help me resolve this isssue. my site url is www.eshopie.com

[Vger]

Well, first off, you have your website's configure.php files set up incorrectly. You have your entire site set to operate under SSL, which is not advisable:

1. SSL pages take longer to deliver, because of the encryption.
2. Whilst your site will get listed in search engines it won't get any Google Page Rank, because Page Rank does not apply to https pages.

As to the reason why you get an insecure padlock on https pages it's because of this javascript code being called in from an outside source on an http address:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=xa-4cd1ec2b08cdcb12"></script>

Hi guys,

I also have a problem with SSL integration. I'm using 1.3.9h (the latest). My SSL certificates are were setup and the SSL vendors tester said it was working correctly. When I tried to edit the includes/configure.php file in Cpanel it says that it's saved but gives an error: [a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive]. Also, my admin/includes/configure.php is MISSING!?

My site works fine though but I obviously can't setup Zencart for SSL.

I'm using the pure_blue template and have the CSS click-show-hide menu and Easy Populate installed. Help please?
my URL: www.electricantcomputers.co.za

When I tried to edit the includes/configure.php file in Cpanel it says that it's saved but gives an error: [a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive].

Check in cpanel the permissions on the file and if 444 set to 644 first
But one should NOT be editing any php files using the cpanel editors

Also, my admin/includes/configure.php is MISSING!?

Better check again as if you can access your admin there is one

[Vger]

The error message you are getting is a definite indicator that you did not change the permissions on that file to 644 before trying to use the "Edit" function in cPanel's File Manager.

Thanks guys,

Will try that and get back to you.
I know, I can access my admin are so maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place...
