SSL and getting into Admin

[MMcC]

I have been a few days now trying to get WHMCS working. I installed into http://www.clients.domain.com under my private_html/clients directory for SSL.

Everything seems to work fine. It loads https for some pages but not all. Normal I think.

If I go to http://www.clients.domain.com/admin/ it comes up asking for the username and password. I enter it and it just comes back asking for it again. I have had the password reset and emailed the new one many times.

If I try to access /admin/ any other way says the license is not valid

Anyone have a recommendation?

 

Are there specific ways you have to install if using SSL?

Do subdomains not work?

 

Thanks

Ok, if I disable the SSL cert and just place WHMCS back at http://www.domainname.com/clients I can log back into Admin.

 

It seemed to work fine under the subdomain except for getting into Admin.

Is this a bug or am I asking it to do something it will never do?

 

Should I just buy a root certificate and run it under http://www.mydomain.com/clients all the time?

 

Does WHMCS work in a subdomain?

 

Thanks

You have your SSL cert attached to http://www.clients.domain.com or clients.domain.com?

 

In your WHMCS site account, you can see that you are restricted to http://www.clients.domain.com because that is the first address you typed in to access/install it. That information is passed back to you WHMCS account.

 

Myself, I don't use the www. To access my client area securely it is simply https://support.mydomain.ca. It may be the whole www, but I am not entirely sure. Just a thought.
