    It looks like you're using your host's shared SSL certificate. The cert is issued to secure1.valueweb.com.

    You should be able to edit the configure.php files to point to that address, but I would strongly recommend you buy your own SSL certificate.

    ok so would it be:

    define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://cheriart.com');
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://secure1.valueweb.com');
    define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true');


    ADMIN:
    define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://cheriart.com');
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://secure1.valueweb.com');
    define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://cheriart.com');
    define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://secure1.valueweb.com');

    // Use secure webserver for catalog module and/or admin areas?
    define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true');
    define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'true');

    I believe that's right - give it a whirl and see what happens.

    Whenever using a Shared SSL Cert you must make sure you obtain the correct URL from your Hoster. That URL is then used in your config files for the HTTPS URL.
