I just installed a ssl cert. it is working fine for regular web pages. However, within XOOPS I have some issues. I get a broken lock (indicating a mix of secure and insecure items). When I do this:
le="color: #000000"><?php // In mainfile.php // change this line define('XOOPS_URL', 'http: //www.example.org'); // to the following define('XOOPS_URL', 'https: //www.example.org');


This works fine to change my whole site to ssl. Bu I only want certian pages to be ssl. So I tried this from another post:
le="color: #000000"><?php // In mainfile.php // change this line define('XOOPS_URL', 'https: //www.example.org'); // to the following $port = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SERVER_PORT']; if($port == "443"){ define('XOOPS_URL', 'https: //www.example.org'); } else { define('XOOPS_URL', 'http: //www.example.org'); }


It does not work. Everything comes out http not https. I assume that it is not getting the $port == 443.

Any ideas???

But it does not work.

Any help?

Re: SSL and Xoops

Are you sure that $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] is set? Try echoing it out.

What's your server OS? PHP version? Webserver and version?

I am not an SSL expert and really don't know how it works, but you use the login.php that is in the xoops/extras folder, right?

How about defining a constant BEFORE including mainfile.php in that particular login.php? Something like
le="color: #000000"><?php //new code define("XOOPS_SSL", 1); // path to your XOOPS main directory $path = '/path/to/xoops/directory'; include $path.'/mainfile.php'; if (!defined('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH')) { exit(); }


and then in your mainfile.php:

le="color: #000000"><?php // to the following if(defined(XOOPS_SSL) && XOOPS_SSL == 1) { define('XOOPS_URL', 'https: //www.example.org'); } else { define('XOOPS_URL', 'http: //www.example.org'); }


Oh - and you DO comment out ALL lines in this, right:
le="color: #000000"><?php // In mainfile.php // change this line define('XOOPS_URL', 'https: //www.example.org');

as you cannot re-define a constant.

I win the bone head award!

I echoed it out and it was port 433! I had a typo in my Apache config.

All better now. THANKS MITH!!!!!!!
