htaccess, GoDaddy, SLL, and old eCommerce Issues

Permalink
Alright.

I'm hoping someone with more knowledge than me might know this one. I have a client who moved their website back over to GoDaddy (dun, dun, dun). They are running C5 5.4 with the eCommerce plugin. To make matters worse, they want their SSL installed. I have it where the URL always redirects to the www version of the domain. With the old C5, you have to have that "BASE_URL" and between that and the htaccess fix to fix the GD/FastCGI issue, I can't seem to get the SSL URL to work. Here's what I got,

In the config.php
define('BASE_URL', 'http://www.cpeworld.com');


In the htaccess:
# -- concrete5 urls start --
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(default.htm)/?$ index.php
RewriteRule ^(default.html)/?$ index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>


I tried to switch the http to https in both of the settings and I get a Redirect error.

I did turn on the SSL in the eCommerce settings of course and this has never failed me yet. This is the first time. BAH!

Thanks!

I've learned to ignore all posts with GoDaddy in them. My client can't pay me enough to waste weeks fighting with GoDaddy so my advice would be to 'fire' the client if they refuse to move to a different host. I'm not kidding.

HAHAHAH! For that answer, you get the mark for the "Best Answer".

What was weird is that they were having an issue with Auth.net. The client said they were getting emails about funds having a chance of not getting through or something like that. Both the client and their customers were getting these emails. Auth.net said that it was with the "Silent Response URL" or something like that. I switched them back to GoDaddy hosting and it seemed to solve that issue. I don't know.

Thanks mhawke for that response! That made my morning.
