Remove FORCE SSL for Admin login
Hi all,
I mistakenly managed to click something called "Force SSL" for Administration login. And now I discovered that my QNAP TS-209 on which Joomla! is installed, does not support SSL (HTTPS) connections for websites other than the QNAP's own login page.
Anyone knows HOW I can disable this, since I am not able to logon to the Jooml! Administrator pages..

Re: Remove FORCE SSL for Admin login
Open your configuration.php file and edit the line:
var $force_ssl = '2';
to:
var $force_ssl = '0';
The variable will be set to '2' if you had set Force SSL to Entire Site or '1' if you'd set it to Administrator Only.
This is a little late I know but maybe it will be helpful to someone else.
var $force_ssl = '2';
to:
var $force_ssl = '0';

Re: Remove FORCE SSL for Admin login
Thanks a million guys!!!!
Also, if anyone needs few more tips.
I wasn't able to edit the configuration.php file to start with. I had to change file permission to read and write for the user. Then edited the file and changed the permissions back to read only.
Then clear your browser history and voila!!!!
Good luck to all peeps out there with that!!

How did you access the configuration.php file. I cannot access anything. And I see a note above also to change the file permission to read and write for the user, but I need to know how to get to that also. I am an amateur for sure. I turned on the force SSL and now the site is completely disappeared.
