SSL has now been enabled. Thanks for the pointers, Norbert!
The forum software has also been updated to 3.2.5.
Fingers crossed, hopefully everything still works.

Nice!
I've checked, and everything except the wiki appears to work fine.
The wiki may have a variable ($wgServer perhaps?) hard-coded as http://.

According to the output of the command below, the Wiki redirects back and forth between the HTTP and the HTTPS versions.

Code: Select all

curl -Lv http://www.princed.org/wiki/Main_Page

It looks like updating the $wgServer variable in LocalSettings.php indeed fixed it!

Cool. Another wiki-related request:
Could you also update $wgLogo in the same file?
That one's displayed on all wiki pages, causing all padlocks there to have warnings.
I'm currently going through the wiki to update all http links to https.

[Norbert]

I can tell you fixed it, because the padlock is now green.
Thanks.

I have made new backups.

Do you still make backups of the forum/wiki now and then?

[Falcury]

Yes, for sure. The backup interval is roughly every two weeks.
I am unable to be a very active contributor at the forum at the moment, mostly due to my day job consuming a lot of (actually nearly all of) my time and energy... (Still, I do read all new posts and am on standby if urgent things crop up.)

[Norbert]

Yes, for sure. The backup interval is roughly every two weeks.

Cool, thank you.

I've renamed my (old, second) user account "contest" to "NorbertAdm".
Reasons: a) to reflect that the account was only used by me, and b) because the contest-thing never took off.

I read that thread, and it is such a shame that there wasn't enough interest for the contest; would have loved to participate on it, had I been on the forum back then.

Yeah, me too.

[Norbert]

Lots of guests, right now.

Almost at a thousand now.
Maybe it's search engines going though threads.

I tried to update the forum software to the latest version (phpBB 3.3), but it turns out that this requires PHP 7.1.3, which the webserver is not yet running. So, instead I updated to the next latest version (phpBB 3.2.9), which should still be fine, for now.
