I could use some help with the SSL installation from NameCheap.com. I created a new internal/external IP's for the website (changed DNS settings) and created firewall rules for them. I changed the site to use that new internal IP. I created SSL request using ISPconfig's "SSL Action" "Create Certificate." I used that request in NameCheap control panel using "positivessl" selecting Apache + OpenSSL. I copy pasted the resultant files from NameCheap into a bundle and copy pasted that into the "SSL Bundle" field. The result was that I got a working site with HTTPS but the certificate complained that the site name was not the same as the server name (doh, it's shared hosting!) After I changed the site IP back to * (because I don't want to get error messages in the HTTPS connections) I can't get the HTTPS to bind with the site with or without the fixed IP. So there are 2 different questions here How to fix the error with the certificate (server name)? How to fix the HTTPS to bind with the right site (as opposed to the ISPconfig/phpMyAdmin?)
The ssl cert has to go into the ssl cert field. Onle the intermediate ssl certificate(s) go into the bundle field. Regardin IP address. All sites on a server has to use either the IP or *, you can not mix * and IP as the site that has the Ip will get all requests then. SSL works with * as well as an IP in site settings.
Thx, Till. Guess what I forgot? I forgot to enable the SSL from the website main tab in ISPconfig That's why I only got the "server" page when I tested HTTPS. Now it works.
