Site won't switch into SSL mode - using servage.net hosting

[Badvoc]

Just installed Zen but I'm getting a red line through my padlock for SSL, I assume that means I've got external links to some things, all I've done is install Zen, a template and a couple of mods and SSL not got any stock in it yet or banners.

Can anyone who understands how SSL works tell me what links are causing the problems and what files they are located in.

If I understand it properly I just need to remove the http:// etc. and internally link it...

if that makes sense to anyone :)

the site is https://secure.gothicmagic.co.uk

thanks in advance to anyone that can help, I've never used SSL before so I'm in the dark

Your configure.php files may need attention - there are important configurations in these files you need to set.

there are TWO configure.php files :-

includes/configure.php
admin/includes/configure.php

I checked both those files for any instances of src="http:// last night and didn't find any, perhaps my sleepy eyes have let me down... or is it not just "src=" lines that I need to look at?

Thanks :)

in the config files it's really just the parts like this:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://gothicmagic.co.uk');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://secure.gothicmagic.co.uk');

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

that need chaning I think, and they are done, SSL is working (perfectly in the admin section) but I'm getting unauthenticated content errors on the shop front

Not sure what you tried to do, but these are php files and you need to change some of the the DEFINE settings.

You should be looking for the following:-

// Define the webserver and path parameters
  // HTTP_SERVER is your Main webserver: eg-http://www.your_domain.com
  // HTTPS_SERVER is your Secure webserver: eg-https://www.your_domain.com
  define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.YOUR-DOMAIN-HERE');
  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://YOUR-PATH-TO-SECURE-WEBSERVER-HERE');

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

I don't need to change those bits mate that's already done, and ssl does exist

The way or place you have this installed is the issue....

The logo is at:

http://gothicmagic.co.uk/includes/templates/lavender/images/logo.gif

The site url and SSL cert is at:

http://secure.gothicmagic.co.uk/

Not sure what you have done here but this is the problem

[Badvoc]

I just followed the instructions for everything to the letter :)


I don't want the whole site to run in SSL just logins etc. i.e. when the customer has to input info

So all images displayed on the site have to have a secure address? or is it just the logo?

I'm confused lol :)


I installed Zen then the template, then added SSL in that order.

what file is that path in?

re-read my post...

The logo states that it is at gothicmagic.co.uk but your site url loads from secure.gothicmagic.co.uk

Your SSL Cert is issued to secure.gothicmagic.co.uk

It is the

gothicmagic.co.uk
secure.gothicmagic.co.uk

thing that is causing the broken lock
