Magento

Hi there,

Just getting Magento installed but running into a problem with the https config in the installer.

I’m installing on my laptop that I’ve set up for dev using xampp and I have several things I’m working on that I’ve assigned SSL to non-standard ports for ( 4431, 4432, 4433 etc).

The installer works fine but when I try to specify 4431 as the https port it comes back complaining it’s invalid. I don’t have this issue otherwise.

Is the installer hard coded to 443? Or is it doing something like $request_type == ‘SSL’ or $_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] == ‘443’?

Thanks for any suggestions or clarification,

Iggy

Just some additional info. Going to https://magento:4431/install on my machine yields a not found. I’m a little stumped how that would be an apache config issue unless magento is redirecting to 443 silently in the background where there really isn’t any magento install.

Thanks again

Do you have https setup on your laptop?  I might be wrong, but I think the installer looks to see if https is setup on the server (laptop in your case), if it is not, then it will say invalid.  i don’t think it’s very concerned about the port number.

Anyways, if you’re just testing this on your laptop, does https really matter?  You could just choose http, and it will probably install fine.  Once it’s installed, I think you can change it to https in the admin section if you need to.

Yep, https is up and running and works fine (at least on other projects). I can install without https and change the port in the admin; at that point the home page (index) shows fine and then I get a not found when going to checkout.

The requested URL /checkout/onepage/ was not found on this server.

Do you know if Magento can be configured on a non-standard https port or is it going to require 443 for testing/deployment? And what do you think the not found is about?

I’m reasonably certain mod_rewrite is working as advertised but I’ll double check.

Thanks,
Iggy
