Cant get admin feature to work properly in 1.4

I have installed the download, excuted all the queries on sql2008 on computer data base, everything seams to work fine, but in the admin section i only have a dashboard and stats.....any ideas any1 lol

I see this in the release notes "Admin area requires SSL now"

I hope this can be turned off...

This is battering my head lol, do you still need ssl when working from a home pc, bulding the site before it is uploaded to a remote server? Dont get it lol

I'm not sure without investigating more sorry.  All I know is I have done an upgrade to version 1.4 locally and I can see the backend fine.

Have you got ssl m8?

i'm running it on local machine only - no ssl  - and all admin section is fine

It's optional. Admin area was not SSL secured in previous releases. Now admin area will be secured IF YOU HAVE SSL installed.

thanks for clearing that up. nice work on 1.4!

Yes wicked work on 1.4...my prob is i dont have ssl, and want to work on my site from home/local...not remote server...for some reason i cant for the life of me get the admin features to work, i e catalog, products, from back end....very confusing as it works great on 1.3....:-)

Need to sleep now as been at it 24hrs hehe...will start again from scratch after a power snooze lol lol

I am running version 1.3 on a shared server. I have a SSL certificate from starfield  and tried to use it on my Store site. in the Global settings I put in "what I thought" was the right url for the certificate  and now when I try to log in to the admin area or even as a customer  I get an error message that the site does not exist. I can not get into the admin area at all. Can some one tell me what file I go into and what information I need to change to turn off the SSL?

Good Thing I have not required customers to register to check out.....

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
