Title: https and coppermine
Post by: FBleu on February 25, 2017, 09:12:28 am
Hello  :)
Can you make a tutorial to make the switch from coppermine to https?
Because https://docs.ovh.com/fr/fr/web/hosting/les-certificats-ssl-sur-les-hebergements-web does not appear to be sufficient
In english https://www.ovh.co.uk/g1594.informations-on-the-various-SSL-certificates-OVH


I made a change in
http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/configuration.htm#admin_general_coppermine-url
and
http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/configuration.htm#admin_general_home-url
By adding an "s" to http, it does not work  :(
Poor configuration at ovh or Problem with coppermine ???

Very little from a CPG perspective...

From the CPG doc links:
The first link you posted describing 'URL of your Coppermine gallery folder' needs to be changed to https:// instead of http://
The second link you posted describing 'URL of your home page' does NOT change - it remains just index.php

You do need to redirect initial access into the site to https then... the link you provided (ovh) give an .htaccess method to do so.
You also need a valid certificate for your site to avoid browser security warnings.

A link to your gallery would help see the behavior you are observing once the above items are done.
