Deactived Force HTTPS - can't access Limesurvey was created by ch123
Hey.
I got a problem. I wanted to try my general (security) settings because I currently have problems with displaying my surveys in another application via IFrame. Unfortunately, I changed it a bit too fast without thinking about it.
In the Global Settings I have turned off "Force HTTPS" - before I had it activated. Now I cannot access my LimeSurvey instance anymore.
Is there a way to change this? Or do I have to reinstall LimeSurvey?
The manual says: "If you activate HTTPS by mistake, you can deactivate it in application/config/config.php file, changing the value of ssl_emergency_override to 1", but I don't quite understand that... Is it possible the other way around as well?
Thank you!

You may change the value in the database.
In table "lime_settings_global" set value "force_ssl" to "off"

And next time do not ignore this

Ah thank you so much, great
Just set the value to "on", but it worked the other way around as well.
Saw that hint, but I thought that it wouldn't be a problem to switch it off when it worked before. But I won't ignore it next time, thanks!

What I don't understand is, why there would be a problem if you switch this off. I can understand that there can be problems when you switch this on and force Limesurvey to use https, but there is no valid SSL certificate.
But if you have a certificate and you switch this off, there should be no problem. You should be able to access via http AND https.

That was my thought as well - but without any knowledge in this field... I don't know.
Maybe there's a restriction from my server or something?
But it's working now
