Thank you, much for getting back with me. I have news :) I got what I tried at 2) working. I was able to disable the check for secure connection. What I forgot to do is to make sure there is a parameters_NNNN.py file for the port I set my virtual host on (I only had parameters_8000.py).
However, since I spent a few days trying to get this web2py through HTTPS working anyway, I would like to get it to work this way too if possible. Therefore, let's continue to investigate 1). Kenneth, sure, send me that file please. I guess then I would have to comment the default virtual host that is set already in the etc/httpd/ conf.d/ssl.conf file, right? After the directive <VirtualHost _default_:443> I just have to comment everything and add this new virtual host for 443 instead.
