Question

I’ve installed a UC Multi-Domain SSL Certificate from Entrust for use with two OpenCart installs and a corporate domain all hosted at the same IP.

I have 3 domains on the certificate in the following order

• http://www.example.com
• http://www.example2.com
• http://www.example2.ca

when I activate SSL in OpenCart and the config.php my links to secure areas are changed; however, strange things are happening to these links.

Example:

 Page: www.example2.com
 Link: https://www.example2.com/admin
 Resulting Page: https://www.example.com/admin
 OR https://www.example2.com/admin (but code from https://www.example.com/admin)
 OR if https://https://www.example.com/admin doesn't exist I get a 404 page

http://www.example.com/.htaccess

Any help would be great.

I am sorry to hear you are having issues. I passed this along to the Entrust Support team to see if they could provide some help. After they looked at your post they passed along the following. “This is an odd issue because the SSL certificate does not direct traffic in anyway, it is the website that controls where the user goes after clicking on a hyper link. This would be an issue with the coding on the site, the configuration or the re-direct is setup wrong.” I hope this helps you.
