images not showing on https pages

Hi all,

I have a fresh clean install of 1.4.9.1 with a single domain SSL installed (Not a UCC SSL).

Please don't bash me on the colors, my new customer wanted it that way.

http://www.detourjewelry.com/

The issue I am having, and I am admitted new to opencart, is that on secure pages I only get image place holders but the images themselves are not displayed. No banner, no products, no footer called images. Only the Java called SSL image in the footer shows.

I've been searching the board for days and just can't find a reason for this. Help.....Please....

BTW....this is the same issue as was posted here but the OP didn't reply. http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... ps#p101887

I have my URL set to:

http://www.detourjewelry.com/

what is in your admin/config.php?

(and yes, the colours are terrible!! lol )

<?php
// HTTP
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.detourjewelry.com/admin/');
define('HTTP_CATALOG', 'http://www.detourjewelry.com/');
define('HTTP_IMAGE', 'http://www.detourjewelry.com/image/');

// HTTPS
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://www.detourjewelry.com/admin/');
define('HTTPS_IMAGE', 'http://www.detourjewelry.com/image/');

// DIR
define('DIR_APPLICATION', '/home/detour/public_html/admin/');
define('DIR_SYSTEM', '/home/detour/public_html/system/');
define('DIR_DATABASE', '/home/detour/public_html/system/database/');
define('DIR_LANGUAGE', '/home/detour/public_html/admin/language/');

define('DIR_CACHE', '/home/detour/public_html/system/cache/');
define('DIR_DOWNLOAD', '/home/detour/public_html/download/');
define('DIR_LOGS', '/home/detour/public_html/system/logs/');
define('DIR_CATALOG', '/home/detour/public_html/catalog/');

// DB
define('DB_DRIVER', 'mysql');
define('DB_HOSTNAME', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', XXXXXXXXX);
define('DB_PASSWORD', XXXXXXXX');
define('DB_DATABASE', XXXXXXXX);
define('DB_PREFIX', '');
?>

Anyone have an idea of what I should look for?

Not sure to be honest....but my admin/config shows this

// HTTPS
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.mysite.co.uk/admin/');
define('HTTPS_IMAGE', 'https://www.mysite.co.uk/image/');

so why not try changing those two URLs to https: .

I also noticed that the picture filenames have spaces in them, which is being translated as %20 - it might be wise to replace the spaces with an underscore or dash, eg purple_safari.jpg.

Well, for this site it made the admin page unusable as it would only show the dashboard when I changed those to https. Not sure if changing the names of the images made any difference at all.

This is the error message by opening your image URLs:
1. The reason can be that files like images, css files etc. must not be hardcoded. Make sure that you don't code your pages with hard coded URL's, just use paths, then images and things will work in secure and insecure mode without error. For example, don't <img src="http://www.domain.com/image.jpg">, use <img src="/image.jpg">

2. another reason could be your server (php) configuration. You should contact your hosting provider.

As you can see this image will be loaded fine: http://www.detourjewelry.com/image/data ... etour5.jpg

but this one doesn't: https://www.detourjewelry.com/image/dat ... etour5.jpg

That means that the access to the image folder through a secure conection is forbidden.

Try to use the sample bellow for your images:
