SSL and eCommerce

Permalink
I have a site at:http://avenuefclothing.com/
but when I activate the SSL in the eCommerce package and I get a url that goes nowhere.

Teck support at inmotion hosting said this:


It looks like you are using SEO rewrites. They will not work using the temporary URL You will have to use the actual URL to the file. There is no checkout folder so it is giving you a 404 error. The index.php would not be a part of the path.

The correct URL should be

https://secure46.inmotionhosting.com/~harris7/avenuefclothing.com/... path to actual file.

When I try to check the site there is something that redirects the URL. If I go to
https://secure46.inmotionhosting.com/~harris7/avenuefclothing.com/... it changes to
https://secure46.inmotionhosting.com/~harris7/~harris7/avenuefclothi...

It is not in the .htaccess it looks to be something to do with the concrete folder.

But no matter what I put in in "Use SSL for Checkout" box I get an error and a redirect to a nonexistant url like:
https://secure46.inmotionhosting.com/~harris7/avenuefclothing.com/~h...

Can you help me?

This should probably be posted on the ecommerce add-on support and/or questions page.

This should work.. I don't know what the heck that 'teck' support is talking about ..
in your .htaccess above the concrete5 pretty url statements (otherwise order of precedence, dictates it will never be used)

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} checkout
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yoursite.com/$1 [R,L]

my problem is that when I go to checkout, i get https, but when I navigate away to another generic page, https persists. How can I make my non checkout pages revert back to http?

thanks.

I have a question about this same topic, the main page should behttp://interdem.us/es but it's redirecting to the page
http://interdem.us/es/es.

the trouble began when I went to the menu "order settings" and selected "yes" in "use SSL for Checkout" and I wrotehttp://interdem.us/es in BASE_URL_SSL textbox, then the main page
which should behttp://interdem.us/es is redirected tohttp://interdem.us/es/es to nothing .

I went to the database to change the value of BASE_URL_SSL tohttp://interdem.us and SECURITY_USE_SSL to "false" but the problem persist.

how I can return to the correct path?http://interdem.us/es
