Login does not work Locked out of admin

[milleni]

PHP Version 7.4.33
site URL: www.milleniumwholesale.com
database version: libmysql - mysqlnd 7.4.33

I have not upgraded since installing several years ago. I have had no real problems that I could not solve until this happened; It started about a month ago when I tried to login in to my admin. When I clicked on Submit, the following message page appears:


"The information you’re about to submit is not secure
Because this form is being submitted using a connection that’s not secure, your information will be visible to others."

It also has a "Send Anyway" Link (box) and a "Go Back" button. When you click on the Send Anyway link, it "Goes Back" to the login page. No matter what you do it will not go anywhere except to the error message or the login page. If I try to have a new password reset, the same error appears. Nothing will go past it period.

I had a live chat with my hosting company and they cannot find a server side issue. They suggested that it was a scripting issue as they tried to login as well and got the same results. I have not made any changes to the site with the exception of my hosting company deleting the error log content because it had reached epic proportions and exceeded the file limits of the hosting (1.2 million) which is now around 20,000. However, I had been able to login in to the admin since that was done, but only a couple times.

I am able to login to other websites I have. But, this is the only Zen Cart site I have.

Let me know if there is any other information that is needed to help troubleshoot this problem.

Thanks for any help I can get. This is very urgent.

First of all, 1.5.5 is not designed to run on 7.4.33. It's max should be 7.1.

If you have cPanel, see if your host allows you to set the PHP level with multiPHPManager.

Next, there seems to be some problem with your SSL.

The certtificate seems to be for multiple sites.

Make sure the SSL is for one site even if the other site 301 or 302s into it. Then, make sure your settings match the SSL as to whether or not it uses www.

The admin is way more finicky about the certificate match than the storefront.

... as is Chrome vs. FireFox regarding certificate-related hissy-fits.
