I have purchased a certificate, enabled ssl on my server, but when I change the wwwroot to https://.. I get the following error.
Fatal error: $CFG->dataroot is not configured properly, directory does not exist or is not accessible! Exiting.
I left the dataroot the same value. Here is my cfg for this area prior to changing to https://
$CFG->wwwroot = 'http://education.mysite.ca';
$CFG->dataroot = '/<<path>>/vhosts/education.mysite.ca/moodledata';
The dataroot is one level above my httpdocs directory (education.mysite.ca) in a moodledata directory, to provide the required security in moodle 2.x.x
I am currently running Moodle 2.3.3 (Build: 20121112)
Ideas why it complains about dataroot with https but not with http?
