SSL Issues

Hi,

I am currently running 'MojoPortal 2.2.6.8 MSSQL' and believe there may be a problem with SSL.

We have the school site running on port 8888 and all is working fine.

We purchased a certifcate, installed it on IIS7 and did some tests.. All working fine. (test aspx page and paddlock etc ok.)

BUT.. When we try and use it in MojoPortal we have a couple of issues.

I modified the Web.config as follows:

SSLIsAvailable = true

EnableSSLInChildSites=true

MapAlternatePort = true   (not changed required for 8888 for site)

MapAlternateSSLPort = true  (we would like to run on 8889)

AlternateSSLPort = 8889

All appears to be ok for normal webaccess to the site. (ie port 8888).

But when I click on sign-in I get:

https://www.hvgs.nsw.edu.au:8888/Secure/Login.aspx

(The wrong port..?????)

If I change it to 8889 all works ok. And I can access the setup etc.

If we try to access the site (without login) using https:// on 8889 it does nothing. (hangs is probably a better word).

I can click on 'Require SSL for all pages', but thats not what we wanted.

It would be nice if a user could use http://www.hvgs.nsw.edu.au:88888 or  https://www.hvgs.nsw.edu.au:8889

That is optionally use SSL, not require SSL.

Any ideas ?

Regards

Andrew

Re: SSL Issues

Hi Andrew,

It does work using standard ports. If you say it does not work correctly with non-standard ports I believe you and agree its a bug.

However, I don't have time to give this issue priority right now. I consider it a corner case.

But mojoportal is open source so if this issue is important to you, I encourage you to investigate a solution and submit it.

Best,

Joe
