Hello,
I have just discovered my shopping cart is not working because when you try and put anything in there and go to checkout it says there is a problem with the websites security certificate, if you request continue and go to next in the cart, a general script error is displayed.
I was originally told by someone that my host 1&1 had put the security on http://thegiftplace.co.uk and not on www.thegiftplace.co.uk and the only way to address this was to contact them and get them to move it.
However, i have asked them twice now and this is the reply i get from them:
"Thank you for contacting us.
After installing the SSL certificate on your domain, create a file named .htaccess in the directory your domain is pointing to and place the following code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [R]
(substitute www.domain.com with your domain)
Note: Domains can have SSL certificates installed on www.domain.com or just domain.com. Please check what you have and then substitute it accordingly.
(https://www.domain.com/$1 [R] or https://domain.com/$1 [R])
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us."
So just now i created a text file called htaccess and put in their instruction followed by an upload but it does not seem to have solved the problem unless my interpretation of creating a .htaccess file is wrong.
Can anyone help please ?
