Re: Webroot problem when accessing cake app through service provider's SSL

Thanks for your help!

I still can't get it to work however. I tried any possible settings in
the .htaccess.

The problem is that cake defines the webroot directory in views as "/
ssl/application_name/" when it shoud be because of the SSL "/
thesite.com/application_name/".

Because that directory is set wrong all includes (css, javascript) and
form actions point to that wrong directory. Where does cake get this
directory? It can be echoed in a view (echo $this->webroot). Is there
some setting where I can change this value?
