    How to install SSL certificate for Ispconfig server control panel (not for sites!)?
    For example: My multiserver control panel instaled at server/hostname web.mydomain.com (where mydomain.com hosted at the same server) and control panell are accessible at https://web.mydomain.com:8080. But https accessible with selfsigned certificate. I want to replace certificate to paid certificate.
    I have created vhost subdomain "web" at mydomain.com and added certificate to subdomain "web" trough user control panel..
    And now..
    https://web.mydomain.com SSL certificate works good, but https://web.mydomain.com:8080 uses old/wrong self signed certificate and there are error "Invalid certificate" ...

    PLEASE HELP :)

    /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-ispconfig.vhost

    This is where you need to set the correct paths to your SSL certificate and also on which address should be listening the ISPConfig panel.

    Do I need to buy a special server certificate? Or simple certificate like
    Comodo PositiveSSL
    ? :)

    I actually don't see a difference between the regular and any other certificate. Perhaps Till or someone else could say something more about that. For me they are all the same with different insurance number(money). What matters also maybe for your case is if the certificate will be for parent domain only or few/all of it's subdomains. :)

    A simple certificate should be fine, from a encryption standpoint the certs are all the same, I use the comodo positive certs myself. The expensive certs make only sense for e-commerce purposes, especially the EV SSL certs that give you a "green" bar in the web browser that shows your company name are used to build up trust with your customers.
