Firstly, congrats on a superb project and a superb "perfect guide for FC4". I have successfully installed ISPConfig with no problems (using http:// for ISPConfig) I have installed twice since, selecting the option to use the control panel through SSL (https://) and encountered the same problem. Incidentally, the domain I have used is a FQDN but I am behind a router, as such I have a line in my hosts file which is: 192.168.1.100 www.mydomain.com www mydomain.com This line appears both on my FC4/ISPconfig server and my local client machine. When I put http://mydomain.com:81/ into my browser, I get as expected: ------------------------------------ Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port. Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please. Hint: https://mydomain.com:81/ ------------------------------------ When I put https://mydomain.com:81 I get: The page cannot be displayed Any ideas ? Just checked the logs and also tried to access the page using lynx on the server. The logs show no requests from my machine using SSL, but shows http:// requests. When using lynx it does the certificate thing and then goes to login.php, so obviously a network problem ? Not sure what though !
Edit your host file and try the fallowing. Code: 192.168.1.100 www.mydomain.com mydomain.com Also sometime, I have had to restart the compuer (where you edited the HOSTS file) to get https working.
I didn't manage to solve this but it was obviously a local dns prob in some way. I have since installed ispconfig on a fresh server in a data centre and so far it's almost 100% fine ! Thanks for the reply though
