    ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS after activating SSL

    Hi

    I just activated the SSL option.

    I can still get to the setup page, but when I try to login at the client I get "ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS".

    I deleted all the cookies to see if there is a problem with them, but the error occurs on all the browsers I tried (edge, firefox, chrome, ie).

    Any suggestions?
    Is there a possibility to deactivate SSL by changing the value directly in the config file?

    Before the activation everything worked flawlessly.

    Best regards

    Daniel

    Hi Daniel,

    you can find the https-value only in the database. Please check this thread:

    Hi Wolfgang,

    thank you for your reply, this sounds like the solution to my problem.

    But I encountered difficulties, I don't have a table called settings as seen in the example.

    Could you provide me some additional information? The picture also doesn't show all the information it seems.

    Regarding the first solution: SSL was already enabled on the server before

    Best regards

    Daniel

    Hi,

    I contacted the company which is hosting the site, they told me that everything is working as expected regarding the certificate and sent me this:

    According to them Ilias is causing the trouble.

    Hi Daniel,

    you have a table settings in ILIAS 5.2. too! You just have to find it.

    Best regards,

    Hi Wolfgang,

    thank you for your reply.

    Sorry, it seems I tried it the wrong way.

    Using the search function I was able to find the correct table which didn't show up on the left in table selection.

    Thank you for your help.

    Best regards

    Daniel

    As I encountered the same issue today, just a short drop on how I managed it without entering the database. I entered with the IP not the FDQN. In mz case the error accured because I changed the vhost and therefore not using the host but the IP resolved the issue.

    Cheers
