SSL, logging in, cart empting issue

[Guest]

Hi all

I'm having a problem in CC3.0.2 where the SSL part of the site isn't talking to the non-SSL area. If I login, I am only logged into the SSL area and if I add something to my cart, it's only on the non-SSL area - the secure section always states that my cart is empty. It's not a browser thing as I've tried it in FF and Safari - I just can't work out what's going on and I can't find anything in the forums.

What gives? What files are supposed to be where? Do I need an exact copy of CC in both SSL and non-SSL areas? I'm on a shared SSL cert.

TIA

I had the same problem, and it was fixed by deleting cookies, closing browser, and retrying. I noticed it after making a bunch of changes...

Hi

Thanks for the reply. Just tried that and it hasn't made any difference - the SSL and non-SSL still aren't sharing the shopping cart or login details :innocent:

What are your SSL settings in the admin area? What are the last 3 lines of the global.inc.php file. feel free to change some of the data, but leave the slashes and stuff intact. Also, I wouldnt post anything more than the last 3 lines as it holds your password and database info... Are you running on a windows box, or unix?

Hi

Running UNIX. Last 3 lines of global.inc.php are:

$glob['rootDir'] = '/home/shopname/public_html';

$glob['rootRel'] = '/';

$glob['storeURL'] = 'http://www.shopname.co.uk';

SSL settings in admin:

Root secure public html folder: /~shopname/

Absolute secure URL to store: https://hosting-company.com/~shopname

Server secure root directory: /usr/local/apache/secure/lshopname/public_html/

I've put the global.inc.php in both the public and secure areas of the site - no idea if that's right or not.

I've also noticed that when I try to login by going from public > secure login that, after I hit the login button, the page goes to https://hosting-company.com/index.php and not https://hosting-company/~shopname/index.php and so 404s.

I would make the secure root the same as the regular and see if it works. Also make sure you have "ipaddress:443" and the other fun ssl stuff in the apache conf file setup.

Are you able to go to https://hosting-company.com/~shopname/admin without any problems, ie broken links?

$glob['rootDir'] = '/home/shopname/public_html';

$glob['rootRel'] = '/';

$glob['storeURL'] = 'http://www.shopname.co.uk';

SSL settings in admin:

Root secure public html folder: /~shopname/

Absolute secure URL to store: https://hosting-company.com/~shopname

Server secure root directory: /usr/local/apache/secure/lshopname/public_html/

Is the root path supposed to be"http://www.shopname.co.uk/~shopname"? This should be very similar to the "$glob['storeURL']" variable.

Actually, no. After entering my username and password for admin, it misses out a slash, so I get adminindex.php. I've been trying to work that one out for a while now.

Not surprisingly for a shared environment, I can't get at the Apache conf file :on2long:

fstorr....

Did you get this working yet? I think that I see some possible problems with your path settings.

Hi

No, no luck, so any help you could give would be fantastic.

[Guest frostproof]

Are all of your settings still the same as they were previously?

global.inc.php

$glob['rootDir'] = '/home/shopname/public_html';

$glob['rootRel'] = '/';

$glob['storeURL'] = 'http://www.shopname.co.uk';

SSL settings in admin:

Root secure public html folder: /~shopname/

Absolute secure URL to store: https://hosting-company.com/~shopname

Server secure root directory: /usr/local/apache/secure/lshopname/public_html/

Also, can you PM me the link to the site?
