https and images-Admin Tool Help Plz This appears to be somewhat of a common problem since I've seen a few posts about https and images but not really any solutions.
My problem is occurring only in the admin tool when it is set to work in SSL. The page images contained in the admin/images directory
load fine but the product images contained in the catalog images directory fail to load. This has to be a problem in the
admin/includes/configure.php but I've spent the last four hours working on getting the page to look in the right location
with little success. Below is the modified code from admin/includes/configure.php which has come the closest to getting the page to look in the right place.
// Define the webserver and path parameters
// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)
// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://host10.ipowerweb.com/~pegasus-');// eg, http://localhost or - https://localhost should not be NULL for productive servers
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.pegasus-book.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://host10.ipowerweb.com/~pegasus-');
define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true'); // secure webserver for catalog module
define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/pegasus-/public_html'); // where the pages are located on the server
define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/catalog/admin/'); // absolute path required
define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/home/pegasus-/public_html/catalog/admin/'); // absolute pate required
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); // absolute path required
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/pegasus-/public_html/catalog/'); // absolute path required
define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');
define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'images/');
define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');
define('DIR_WS_BOXES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'boxes/');
define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');
define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');
define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');
define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'includes/languages/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_LANGUAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'includes/languages/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'images/');
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'includes/modules/');
define('DIR_FS_BACKUP', DIR_FS_ADMIN . 'backups/');
// define our database connection
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be NULL for productive servers
define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', '******');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '*******');
define('DB_DATABASE', '*******');
define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persisstent connections?
define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'
With this I can get the page to look for the product images in https://host10.ipowerweb.com/catalog/images. This
is the correct path except it is looking in the root directory of the server and not our account on the server.
The correct path should be https://host10.ipowerweb.com/~pegasus/catalog/images
I've tried about every variation I can think of with results ranging from the entire page failing to load, to all graphics
failing to load, to all graphics loading but without SSL. Any help you could give on this would be greatly appreciated.
Below is the originally modified code which loads all graphics correctly but without the SSL:
// Define the webserver and path parameters
