I finally got the front end working, though i have yet to check with all the pages. I removed the username from shop domain and also ssl domain and added it to base url. In preferences->general i set 'yes' to 'force the ssl on all the pages'. Thanks Nemo1 for your help.

Yes, have tried enabling/disabling friendly urls . . . not working.

I just tried retyping the 'my shop' url(below) in the browser address bar directly 'SecureXXX.myhosting.com/~username/~username/sampleshop/index.php?live_configurator_token=............................................' with the following changes - included the https and removed the repeated username 'https://SecureXXX.myhosting.com/~username/sampleshop/index.php?live_configurator_token=................................'. It worked, the sample shop page opened but again problem ..... it was unformatted. The images and text were just scattered.

I tried removing the username from shop domain and adding it to base url, but does not work. Under Advanced parameters->configuration information->store information the shop url: is displayed correctly as 'https://SecureXXX.myhosting.com/~username/sampleshop/'. But the 'my shop' link in the admin page redirects to the url 'SecureXXX.myhosting.com/~username/~username/sampleshop/index.php?live_configurator_token=............................................' and '404 not found' page is displayed.

example: If my shared ssl url is 'secureXX.myhosting.com/~username' and 'sampleshop' is the installation folder. Below is thentry i made in seo & url page.

A small correction in my previous post. In the admin page when i click on 'my shop' it opens as 'server_name/cpanel_username/cpanel_username/shopname/index.php'.

I did enable ssl to yes. In preferences->seo and url, i entered my shared ssl url that is 'servername/cpanel_username' in the shop domain and ssl domain and the base url as '/installationfolder or shopname/' The backend that is the admin section works fine. It opens as https://server_name/cpanel_username/shopname/adminfolder/index.php. But in the frontend section when i click on 'my shop' it opens as https://server_name/cpanel_username/cpanel_username/shopname/index.php. If you notice the cpanel_username is repeated twice. The 404 not found page is displayed.

I am trying to install prestashop 1.6.0.6 through softaculous from arvixe server - shared ssl. I was told by the arvixe service guys that for the shared ssl, i have to select 'http' as the protocol during installation and then change the urls to the shared ssl url at the backend of prestashop. Please let me know the places where i have to change the urls to shared ssl url. i did try preferences->seo and urls but it did not work. Thanks.
