    Server_f or server_f ssl in web pages configuration?

    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 22, 23
    • Relevant for Installation Type: Dedicated-Direct, Direct, Local, Total Care

     

    Description

    Many web pages contain string "server_f". Do we need to replace "server_f" with "server_f_ssl" in all of them? I found in document "How to configure SSL for Aleph" that only several web files we must change. But in that way, web pages generates mixed -- with some object over HTTP, and some over HTTPS.

    Resolution

     

    Please see also explanations in document  “How_to_set_up_www_server_conf_or_specific_web_pages_to_use_SSL.doc
    Regarding your question:
        a. If you want to setup your whole web OPAC to work HTTPS you need to follow the first suggestion in the above   
             document (E.g. configuration is made in www_server.conf.)
         b. If you want only specific web pages to work HTTPS (for example only the login page)
             then you can follow the second suggestion in the above document.
             Indeed when using this method the OPAC is mixed with some pages on HTTP and some on HTTPS.
