Magento

I created a configurable product, but when I try to download images this error comes up. SSL Error: Invalid or self-signed sertificate.

I followed one of the configurable product screen cast and noticed that when she uploads photos her page looks different than mine. She has spaces to upload individual photos for each size one at a time (eg. thumbnail, large, small)… my page does not have this.

p.s. All of the photos have been sized to meet specifications

The video is for an older version of magento, that is why it looks different for you. Is your SSL certificate valid? Did you actually install a certificate?

Yes I just purchased a new certificate today and my husband (web designer) installed it, but it is still giving the error???

Are you sure that you are accessing the exact url that you got the certificate for. For example, if you bought the certificate for http://www.domain.com - your certificate would be invalid for http://domain.com or http://shop.domain.com (unless you bought a wildcard certificate which are rather expensive).

Ajazza, one question. I am trying magento locally with a dyndns. I created a certificate with “apache2-ssl-certificate - force” to “prueba1.homelinux.org”, and also gives me this error when trying to upload images for products. You think I should have a CA (Certificate Authority)

Does this mean you cannot install magento on a test server with a self signed certificate?

onesimpleman, et al., if you are just testing, you can work around cert problems by setting System > Configuration > Web > Use Secure URLs in Admin to “No”—then image upload works. You may already know this, but I had a similar question myself and thought I’d chip in.

Actually, I have working SSL and get the error when manually uploading an image as I use htaccess to password protect directories during development. This should be worked out as using htaccess during dev. is common for shared web development. I disabled htaccess password protect

Actually, I have a working SSL cert. and get the same error when manually uploading an image as I use htaccess to password protect directories during development. This should be worked out as using htaccess during dev. is common for shared web development. I disabled htaccess password protection and it worked fine.

I have same problem. Can’t upload images on localhost. But this didn’t solve my problem.

I found a quick work-around, for those of you who haven’t gotten certificates yet:

- Login to the admin
- System >> Configuration
- Click on “Web” on the left under “General”
- Under “Secure”, change the bottom two drop-downs to say “No”
- Under “Unsecure”, change the Base URL to http instead of https
- Now in your browser, change the URL to http instead of https

Then upload your images.  Not sure of the ramifications of this - but I do know that I was getting the error, and now I’m not.

This worked for me as well, I’m also using htaccess for protection during development and that’s what was causing my problem.

I am just making a small shop which only uses paypal gateway for payment. I am finding that I can’t upload images at all. I have set all the cofig options to not use secure urls, but when I try and upload my product images nothing happens and when I ‘Save and continue’ they’re all gone so back to square 1 of having no product images. What should I do? Thanks.

We resolved this Issue by:

1. mod_security
<IfModule mod_security.c>
###########################################
# disable POST processing to not break multiple image upload
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
NOTE: You might have to call your hosting provider up and have them disable it/add an exception for you....

2. {{base_urls}}
Replace all the “{{base_url}}” with http://MagentoInstall.com/magento
Replace all the “{{secure_base_url}}” with https://MagentoInstall.com/magento/

3.Our /tmp directory was to small/full redirect your uploads to a /tmp replacement...add to your php.ini
upload_tmp_dir=/Path/To/Your/New/tmp/Dir

None of these worked for me. When I click upload I am getting a box pop up that says

I seemed to fix this for one of our clients by commenting out the following 3 lines

lib/flex/varien/varien/upload/Uploader.as

change to

More of a bandaid then fix but no complaints yet.
