Title: New Customers can't register, only Admin Log in allowed
Post by: mccoysselect on November 27, 2015, 10:10:35 AM
Hi,

Please I installed AbanteCart and have designed the website using the template but new new customers can not register and shop. :(

I have tried registering on my end to no avail as well. Keep getting error message:


File not found (404 error)
If you think what you're looking for should be here, please contact the site owner.

Any help to resolve this will be appreciated!

You have no valid ssl-certificate on your host.
You should to disable SSL in AbanteCart settings (system->settings->system) for now.
Ask your hosting provider about ssl-support and ssl-certificate setup.

it's  a question of network security. It depends on the seriousness of your intentions to do business.
You can ability do not use ssl, but is it correct in relation to your customers? They will give you some secret info, for ex. credit card details, and somebody will see it in the middle of connection. I think it's no good.
We suggest to read more articles about ssl to decide.

Best regards
