CMS 1.7.1 : using https for admin interface...

[redwarp]

Well, before today, I was using CMSMadeSimple 1.7.
In my admin folder, I placed a .htaccess such as :

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
#RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

It ensured that all my admin pages were encrypted, and I was happy about it.

Today, I installed the update, CMSMS 1.7.1.
Since then, I cannot log in the admin panel. Whenever I hit the login button, I'm being send back to the login.php page.

I found a way to be able to log in again ! I just have to remove the .htaccess... Yeah. I'm not satisfied with this solution, actually.
If anyone as a solution... appart from reverting to the good old cmsms 1.7 I mean...

Thanks in advance.

If you read the release notes you would see some reference to https in it, maybe that would help you...

Well, with this new release, it's now possible to get the front end pages in https.
So I guessed they modified the way linked are made.
Sadly, it's not working for the admin panel, but just messes things up...
