htaccess for SSL ?

[landyvlad]

I'm using SMF 2.1 RC2 currently. Fresh install from full package (not upgrade)

I've selected force SSL in the forum settings.

Yet I'm still getting a not secure warning, just as you can probably see here: commandocomics.org

There was no htaccess file in existence so I created one as follows:

Code Select Expand


RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]



Yes I have seen this thread, which is where I got that code from.



What have I missed here? Advice please.

commandocomics.org uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed. Error code: MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT

try to use lets encrypt or buy an SSL cert

I asked my host to have a look as I didn't get that problem with my other 2.1 RC2 forum.
Ta.

Ok can people check if they are still having the problem or if it shows as OK please.

commandocomics.org

should redirect to https and show normally.

Thanks

Site cannot be reached.

That's because the URL tag is built wrong and includes quotes that shouldn't be there. The actual site loads and redirects as expected.

Link was probably built using SMF 2.1 https://github.com/SimpleMachines/SMF2.1/issues/5209 Apparently this isn't an issue.

So it's working properly now?

Your site is, yes. 

And Kindred fixed your link above, so that works too.
