SSL question / please help

[dwadham]

I have recently added a dedicated SSL cert to my hosting then followed this post (http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?56) to activate in my zen cart. Once I activated it a I can no longer sign in to my fetch program to upload files. Also how do I know for sure that SSL is working on my site properly. I dont see any lock in my address bar? here is the code from my includes/config

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

// Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?
define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true');

and here is my files from my admin/includes/config

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

// secure webserver for admin? Valid choices are 'true' or 'false' (including quotes).
define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'false');

// secure webserver for storefront? Valid choices are 'true' or 'false' (including quotes).
define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true');


when I try and install my paypal payments pro in payments option i admin it tells ( ALERT: For security reasons, Installation of this module is disabled until your Admin is configured for SSL. )


when I set the admin SSL to "true" it wouldn't let me log in to my admin????

any help would be appreciated please thanks!

What is a "FETCH" program? Do you mean your FTP system?

yea its called FETCH its a ftp program to upload my files to my server. When I added SSL i now have to log in with ftp.fatcow.com instead of my normal hostname. I also have to use a port now so. I guess being that I added SSL it changed up some ways I have to log in to my ftp. thats all i was saying.

Set the above to true

and see here...

well i had that set to true and my pages that I had set to SSL in my easy page settings wouldn't come up. I got a 404 error. Ill try it again I think fatcow had to make some changes on my account first. thank you for your reply

So i changed the false to true and everything seems to work ok but when I go to add my paypal payments pro module it wont let me. It gives me this note>>>

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


and I changed the false to true is there anything else I need to do to my site to get it SSL ?

[dwadham]

also do I need to set the permissions to my 2 config files i changed to read only ??

and here is my files from my admin/includes/config

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

// secure webserver for admin? Valid choices are 'true' or 'false' (including quotes).
define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'true');

In your admin, if you want to enable payment modules which allow customers to enter credit card data directly on your site, you must enable SSL more thoroughly in your admin, as shown above. Also explained in the article you linked to in your first post.
