Switching To Ssl Connection Failing

General Forums General Questions
#1

Hi there,

My host have set up a SSL certificate. When I try to turn on the first line of Settings > Secure settings, I keep getting errors which refers to:

http://kb.cs-cart.com/secure-connection-failed

When I try the first option, it seems to be working fine

1.Check whether SSL certificate is installed on the server.

When I try the second option I am getting into trouble of a not working site anymore.

2. Check whether the host and directory where CS-Cart etc...

So what should I fill in?

Current:

// Host and directory where software is installed on no-secure server
$config['http_host'] = 'hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';
$config['http_path'] = '';
// Host and directory where software is installed on secure server
$config['https_host'] = 'hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';
$config['https_path'] = '';

Wrong:

// Host and directory where software is installed on no-secure server
$config['http_host'] = 'http://hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';
$config['http_path'] = '';
// Host and directory where software is installed on secure server
$config['https_host'] = 'https://hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';
$config['https_path'] = '';
Or is something else forgotten or misunderstood?

there is a typo in your $config['https_host'] = 'https://.hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';

change to config['https_host'] = 'hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';

Sorry, but typo was only in the post, not in the code.

#4

yes but your post has this: $config['https_host'] = hetonlinewijnhuis.nl'; but should be this $config['https_host'] = 'hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';

There is a typo in the code you posted in current and wrong sections of your post!

Still not working.

#6

Try changing the section complete as there is also a typo on the $config['http_host'] = hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';

should be this:

// Host and directory where software is installed on no-secure server
$config['http_host'] = 'hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';
$config['http_path'] = '';
// Host and directory where software is installed on secure server
$config['https_host'] = 'hetonlinewijnhuis.nl';
$config['https_path'] = '';

$config['https_path'] = '';

Thanks for your patience. I copied and pasted your part to be excactly sure, but it is still not working. So maybe the problem lies somewhere else.

have you cleared the cache after switching to ssl for whole site?

#9

When I try the second option I am getting into trouble of a not working site anymore.

2. Check whether the host and directory where CS-Cart etc...

What does it mean? Blank screen? Redirection loop? Error page? Or something else?

I am getting a blank screen.

I cannot switch on the ssl in General -> Secure settings. I get an error when I try to save the setting. (have attached image in original post)

Maybe you could translate the image so can maybe help? I'm guessing that it's saying there is a problem with the SSL. If so, then you should contact your hosting provider to see what their response is to the issue.
