After SSL URLs Not Found

[Guest KeithW]

Please help. I got an SSL certificate and dedicated IP from Bluehost yesterday and after I updated the store configuration (incorrectly I guess), I'm getting the following message when I try to open an Admin session.

Not Found

The requested URL /admin/index.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/1.3.37 Server at www.sheriffsalesolutions.com Port 80

I can open the store, but if I try to login I get:

Not Found

The requested URL /index.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/1.3.37 Server at www.sheriffsalesolutions.com Port 80

If I try to register, I get:

Not Found

The requested URL /cart.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/1.3.37 Server at www.sheriffsalesolutions.com Port 80

In the store config, for root to Secure store, I used:

"/"

For Absolute path to secure store, I used:

"http://www.sheriffsalesolutions.com"

This is my last piece of the puzzle. Once I get this fixed and have my site running, I'm purchasing a license. I'd appreciate your help. Thank you.

For Absolute path to secure store, I used:

"http://www.sheriffsalesolutions.com"

should be

For Absolute path to secure store, I used:

"https://www.sheriffsalesolutions.com"

Thanks Roban, but how can I get to the config page now. I can't open an admin session.

I downloaded the CubeCart Config Tool and ran the editconf.php script and edited the "storeURL_SSL" variable according to your post.

Now I get "This Page cannot be Displayed" for the admin session and any of the secured (SSL) pages.

I assume I shouldn't I be able to open the "https://www.sheriffsalesolutions.com" link from a browser?

run editconf.php again and this time turn off SSL by placing a '0' istead of a '1'

And...no you should not call your site using https. The ssl comes into play at purchase time and log in.

[Guest KeithW]

Thanks. I'll switch the 1 to 0.

I've been working with BlueHost because they hadn't installed my SSL certificate after they told me they had. Turns out they run out of certificates.

I'm shocked to hear that about Bluehost. They installed my certificate and did it perfectly. I believe ecommerce sites should not be hosted on shared servers and I'll be switching all my sites in the near future.
