Hello,

I have a live site with SSL and the secure pages module enables. admin functions are all https pages per the secure pages module.

Now when i move to localhost to do my testing, i cant access the admin functions because the system is still looking for HTTPS. What can I do? I dont want to de-enable secure pages on the live site and do a download then re-enable it again. Isnt there a better way anyone?

Your best option is, to install Apache with support for SSL on localhost.

The alternatives are to delete the securepages module from your local install, or deactivate it in the database.
For the former delete the securepages folder from the filesystem.
For the latter set the column status = 0 in the system table, where name says securepages.

Oh, this is a dupe of #375368: Secure pages enabled and https turned off error

turning off the secure pages module did not work...i can see some sites staying on local host

but when it comes time to access any data behind SSL...the localhost reverts to the livesite address...

so curious as to why this is happening...
