Root SECURE Public HTML Folder to store: ___________________ ???

e.g. /store/ (Include Trailing Slash)

Absolute SECURE URL to store:

e.g. https://secure.domain.com/store (Excluding Trailing Slash) ______________________???

Enable SSL:

(Warning: This change takes place immediately after submit. Please ensure your secure Root Directory and Secure URL are correct and working before setting this to Yes) Yes No ?

Root Secure is usually the same as rootRel in your global.inc.php file. Absolute Secure is usually the same as storeURL in your global.inc.php file except make http:// into https://.

But they don't have to be. If they need to be really different from each other, you have a very complex hosting setup.

Plus, don't set Enable SSL to Yes until you have your SSL Certificate installed.

Umm... I would recommend that you obliterate the current install, then re-install. Why? Because it seems you uploaded the actual upload folder (and everything in it). While that's not a critical error, it just makes your store's address contain the word "upload". But if that's cool with you, let 'er rip.

The instructions should emphasize that you should FTP the "contents" of the upload folder, not to include the actual upload folder object itself.

Then edit your global.inc.php file again:

"/upload/" becomes "/" and remove 'upload' from everywhere else.

You might also want to add the "www." part to your addresses if that's how your web space responds.

To check if your secure certificate is being recognized, go to your store. Then change the address in your browser to https://whatever manually (note the 's' in 'https'). Your browser will either show the same page in the secure mode, or complain that the certificate is missing, installed wrong, or doesn't belong to you. (I think!)

If everything seems to be working, switch on SSL mode. There will be a point during the checkout process that SSL is engaged and your browser will show whatever indications of having connected via SSL.
