admin section doesn't obey ssl setting

[niek]

Hi,

Zencart version 1.3.6
On my testing server, I am using a directory path to access my Zen Cart site.
The url is http://www.myserver.com/zencart/.
The (working) https url is https://www.myserver.com/mysite/zencart/.

I have set my /admin/includes/configure.php to use ssl for access to the admin section.
But after logging in, all links in the admin section keep pointing to the http:// address of the page.

I also have required ssl access to the admin pages in my apache conf, so this is quite annoying. Every click in the admin panel gives me a 'forbidden' error.

What is wrong in the setting below, that the https path is not obeyed?

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

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

// NOTE: be sure to leave the trailing '/' at the end of these lines if you make changes!
// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
// these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/zencart/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/zencart/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/mysite/zencart/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/mysite/zencart/');

Er, well, after posting my message some useful search results appeared. I have learned that the behaviour is 'as designed' from this thread: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=47474

Sorry for bothering you.

Not a problem ...

Thanks for posting that update ... it always is a help to others ...

In a future release we will be re-writting and re-designing the admin ...
