Question
Running 1.7.0.2 and we just switched the Secure Admin flag to "yes." However, when we navigate to admin using https:// text displays but no pictures/formatting/etc...
The error console shows multiple errors like this when trying to load CSS/JS files:
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://website.com/admin/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure stylesheet 'http://website.com/skin/adminhtml/default/default/reset.css'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
"Use Secure URLs in Frontend" and "Use Secure URLs in Admin" drop down boxes are both set to 'Yes.'
Solution
This error was due to the certificate being used over a different URL from the actual site. Once we updated to the actual cert and matching URL everything cleared up.
