I have a godaddy shared hosting plan setup at www.secureidearockets.com.  Has anyone setup a https site at godaddy with DNN on a shared hosting plan?  I have some questions.

I saw the post on the forum about how to configure IIS for secure certificate, but I believe that godaddy takes care of some of that.  I think they flip the switch that forces everything to be secure.  That makes me nervous as to how to install DNN, even though they automate the process.  I'm waiting for them to tell me they don't support DNN with secure socket or something like that.

Did you install DNN first and change all the settings in the Host Tab's to enforce SSL and and enable secure pages first? 

Or did you install the certificate first and then install DNN and then make changes some where else like the .webconfig?

Did you ask godaddy to make any changes to the directory permissions and security settings of your DNN installation?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, so here is what finally happened.  Not having done SSL before, I had a lot of questions and it seemed a lot of answers were vague, but it is up and working now.

Step1: I used the hosting connection to install Dotnetnuke per the default settings.

Step 2. I installed my SSL certificate using the standard godaddy interface. By your certificate.  Indicate which domain and hosting plan you want it associated to.   I did not need to have Godaddy install any kind of intermediate certificate.  After the SSL certificate was installed I waited a day to make sure everyting was copesetic. 

Step 3. Opened up my portal and logged in a host user and went to the Admin tab and seletecte Site Settings.  At the bottom is SSL settings.  In there I set SSL Enabled and SSL Enforced.

Step 4.  Pages that I wanted to have encrypted need to have Secured checked in their Page settings.

 

What I haven't figured out yet if anyone has the answer is how to specify that the Login page be secure.

Hi,

I'm using Godaddy too, and they don't seem to let me update any of the modules or even the version they're running.

Every time I try to upload either the zip or exe file, I get an error message saying the host won't accept the exe files.

How did you get around this, or are you running the version godaddy supplied?

Redjac, you have to create a new login page, and install the login module, then set that page to be secured..

 

I have a question for you...In your Step 3, did you fill out the "SSL Url" or the "Standard Url"?
