ssl Certificate Invalid

Hello,

I created the ssl certificate using ISPconfig and this is the only domain using this IP. When I access https://www.example.com I get the security warning stating the name on the certificate does not match the domain.

when veiwing the certificate, it does state issue by: localhost.localdomain which explain the warning.

In veiwing the Vhost file all looks correct.
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /home/www/web1/ssl/www.example.com.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/www/web1/ssl/www.example.com.key

From what I can tell, I'm am pulling up this certificate
/etc/pki/tls/private (date matchs build date)

Background info:
Fedora Core 5 built using the How to
Ispconfig
I have restarted the httpd after changes


What should I try next?

Thanks,

 

When I accept the certificate I do get the correct page for https://example.com.

When I view the certificate it is issued by localhost.localdomain. It should be www.example.com correct?

 

What's the hostname and domain name of that web site (it's on the "Basis" tab)?

 

the setting are

Hostname: www
Domain: example.com

thanks,

 

Then the FQDN in the cert should be www.example.com. Are you sure you're using the right certificate? On the correct site?

 

Yes, That is the problem.

When I visit https://www.example.com I am presented with a ssl certificate for the server and NOT the certificate list in the Vhost file path which was created by ISPconfig interface.

I have done a restart of httpd and Ispconfig

I guess, for a work a round I could move the ssl cert. from:
SSLCertificateFile /home/www/web1/ssl/www.example.com.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /home/www/web1/ssl/www.example.com.key

TO:
/etc/pki/tls/private (this the key that is presented)

Thanks,

 

Well, the above worked. I move the .crt and .key . Then renamed them and restarted.

I still do not know why apache is not following the vhost directive for this domain?

 

What's in Vhosts_ispconfig.conf?
