Light Box.. after insall asking for Secuity question

Yes i just installed the light box on my site.. as i love the lightbox stuff..

But now when i installed it.. when i go to a category it comes up with the Security Question box - this page contains secure and non secure items do you want to see the non secure items..

Not sure why this is popping up now.. kind of begging the hell out of me i might have to uninstall it and go back to my old DB..

AHHHHH

please check out http://saltwaterconnection.com

Re: Light Box.. after insall asking for Secuity question

imfsub12:

  • this page contains secure and non secure items do you want to see the non secure items..

So just call up that page again, and when it asks the security question, say NO -Don't display the non-secure items.

You will then see image (or file) place holders, instead of the "insecure" material.

This will indicate what items are not going through HTTPS, and all you need do is change their URL in the code, from HTTP to HTTPS.

Re: Light Box.. after insall asking for Secuity question

... or alternatively, you have instructed everything to load HTTPS somehow. (Check your configure.php files, or any possible setting in lightbox that required HTTP).

Zencart does not apply HTTPS globally when you install SSL. It only goes into HTTPS when sensitive data is being transmitted. For the most part, it operates HTTP and invokes HTTPS only when necessary.

Re: Light Box.. after insall asking for Secuity question

ya i did the ssl security... like the help told me to.. this is in the include/config.php

// Define the webserver and path parameters
// HTTP_SERVER is your Main webserver: eg-http://www.yourdomain.com
// HTTPS_SERVER is your Secure webserver: eg-https://www.yourdomain.com
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');

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

and this is in the admin

  • If you desire your entire admin to be SSL-protected, make sure you use a "https:" URL for all 4 of the following:
    */
    define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');
    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');
    define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');
    define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');

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

Did i do this wrong??? i just followed the faq's

Re: Light Box.. after insall asking for Secuity question

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');

Precisely... This is asking you for the HTTP server, so why are you putting http**s**

And you've done the same further down.

Re: Light Box.. after insall asking for Secuity question

for the admin section it says to do all 4 https

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');

but in the include/config.php i have done this NOW

// Define the webserver and path parameters
// HTTP_SERVER is your Main webserver: eg-http://www.yourdomain.com
// HTTPS_SERVER is your Secure webserver: eg-https://www.yourdomain.com
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://saltwaterconnection.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://saltwaterconnection.com');

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

is this right??

Re: Light Box.. after insall asking for Secuity question

fairestcape, it is correct within the Admin config file to use 'https' for all 4 HTTP settings.

This does not affect the front-end but does allow 'https' connections to be used within all areas of the Admin section. By default, Zen Cart only uses 'https' for the Admin login page.

imfsub12, your config settings are fine and should work correctly. If you still have problems / errors then clear your Browser cache. If using any versions of Windows OS then just: CTRL + F5 to clear.
