LOCKED OUT of dashboard - URL rewriting / https / config issues
Permalink
Hi C5
In trying to remove not secure warnings, I have locked myself out of the dashboard.
In the SEO and redirection page of the dashboard, I unchecked the checkbox 'do not check this checkbox ...'
After reading through the forums, Google search results, and the knowledgebase of my posting provider I have made changes to several files:
updates/concrete5-8.4.0/concrete/config
application/concrete/generated-overrides
htaccess
I managed to get back to getting to the login page but the browser is throwing a not secure warning which is preventing authentication.
My site has an SSL certificate installed and it was working.
PM with details / costs on proceeding to get me back in. I will be checking for messages regularly.
Thanks,
Marc

This will be controlled by a flag in a file set somewhere beneath /application/config. If you browse those files via ftp, you will find the one with the setting in it and can change it to false/0.
https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ andhttps://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html... are handy for checking your certificate and finding the cause of any issues
