Link to database cannot be established When Activating HTTPS

[juanv]

PrestaShop™ 1.4.4.1

 

Hi

 

Hope someone can give me some light on this!

 

I have an ssl certificate installed but having issues to Enable this feature!

 

1. If i go to BO - Preferences and click on "Enable SSL : Please click here to use HTTPS protocol before enabling SSL" it gives me this error : Link to database cannot be established.

 

2. I have copied all the files in my public_html folder to the public_ssl folder via Filezilla but when i enter https://www.mysite.co.za it still states : Temporary holding page for secure site at https://www.mysite.co.za.

 

What am I MISSING?

I am facing the same issue here. Every time I try to access my website, it keeps coming back with 'Link to database cannot be established' message. I have searched and found one solution, however, phpMyAdmin isn't working either or else I could have disabled SSL through one of the tables.

 

Is there a way to disable SSL at code level?

 

Help will be appreciated. Thanks

Ask your server administrator. It looks like the database is down or can't be reached.
