SSL Woes

I decided to do the right thing for my customers and purchased a private ssl certificate yesterday.

I waited until this morning to make the changes to the two config.php files in order to give my hosting company time to install the certificate.

The cart will open via the https://cart.dom-videos.com site. However most of the graphics are gone, the sideboxes are missing, the background and other template elements don't show.

What did I do and what do I need to do to fix it?

Thanks,
Shari

who is off to the admin to check settings for banners etc.

Re: SSL Woes

Re: SSL Woes

Never mind ya'll...I figured it out. Because my ssl cert was applied to https://CART.dom-videos.com and the original path was http://dom-videos.com/CART I had to change the paths in the config.php files as well as enable stuff.

Wow...sometimes it amazes me how much I can figure out with clicking and undoing until it works LOL.

Re: SSL Woes

I see you are using two different URL's (besides http and https)

http://dom-videos.com/cart
https://cart.dom-videos.com

Make sure that your includes/configure.php AND admin/includes/configure.php are both correct (check the paths carefully).

You also need to understand how your non-SSL and SSL are set up on the server. If you have one single directory that you use for both, then you'll only need to maintain a single copy of Zen Cart and files. If you are using a dual directy (one for http and one for https), then you need to always remember to keep both synchronized with the same set of files.

If you're lost with the configure.php files, post here WITHOUT your username/password.

Re: SSL Woes

Ok. New glitch...

Customers can browse the catalog via either the http or https urls. They can log in and check out without issue if they start and stay on the https url. However, if they start on the http url and then attempt to log in to check out, they get the following error message:

http 404 not found. and the system attempts to send them to here:
https://cart.dom-videos.com/index.php?main_page=login&action=process&zenid=04b689ae1d1e12fe24ccddb8a368b602

Any ideas?
