I am running drupal 5.9. When I go to admin -> securepages, the option to enable is greyed out. I click the run again link, which brings up the https://... version of the page without problem (I can do that anywhere on my site) but the button is still greyed out.

I also use amember pro software for my membership and that switches between http and https without problem, so I ma certain there is no issue with my ssl.

Any ideas?

I'm having the exact same problem with version 6.16. I've been trying to resolve this problem for days. Please help!

Usually, this means that SSL isn't set up correctly -- since your other application is apparently OK with the SSL setup, I'm not sure where to go from there.

You might try to see if two of the links I provided in an earlier issue are useful to you:

I included two links there for reference.

Could it be that your site is infront of a loadbalancer which is handling the SSL encryption? Then anything behind that SSL load balancer is unencrypted on the local network.

This is the problem we think we've got. PHP on each of the web servers doesn't see a HTTPS connection, so secure pages doesn't think its a secure page load and so disables the settings form.

I'm closing it because the issue was created a long time ago without any further steps.

if you still need it then raise a new one.
thanks
