    Hello-
    I created a website on my instance of ISPconfig. I decided to get an SSL certificate (at least for now) from https://secure.instantssl.com/. They issued me the necessary files but I'm not sure how to integrate this into my ispconfig panel.

    I originally went to the SSL tab of the website, and selected to "create" a ssl certificate so that I could use the SSL Request for isntantssl.
    The files I received back were:
    • AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt
    • COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt
    • COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt
    • MYDOMAIN.crt
    I copied and pasted the 'mydomain.crt' into the 'ssl certificate' box, but I have no idea what to put into the 'bundle' box.

    my guess, not having done that, is to concatenate COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt and COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt as the bundle .. try in that order, and if it fails, try swapping the order. The root certificate doesn't need to go in the bundle, it'll be well known on your server (and all web browser clients) already.
