I installed ISPconfig 2 on my Debian Lenny root server according to the perfect server setup. At the end I chose to use https for accessing ISPconfig. Then I bought an SSL certificate at Namecheap. I installed it in ISPconfig, but when I access it, it still displays as unsecure. What could be the problem?
I went into ispconfig, opened the web in question. Then I opened the SSL tab. Then I saved, then I went back and there was the SSL Request and I fed that into Namecheap's request form and then I got the SSL Certificate code via e-Mail. Was that wrong?
That way you can create an SSL certificate for that web site, but not for the ISPConfig control panel - if I understand you right, this is what you want, isn't it?
Yes exactly... How would I create a sertificate for the the ISPConfig control panel? Oh crap I just remembered... It runs its own apache2 service, doesn't it? I completely forgot...
SSL cert very old after install Hi I just Installed ISPconfig server (perfect setup ispconfig2 on Karmic koala, ubuntu 9.10). Changed default admin port to 82 due to conflict with IPcop firewall. When I login to control panel via https://xyz.server.com:82 firefox show me the (sec_error_expired_issuer_certificate) message, and that is absolutely correct, because the certificate expired 1973-12-06 18:50 ?!? I probably messed up somewhere during install, although I can't see were, I did followed the perfect setup. Now I need to find the instruction for how to regenerate/reissue certificate for controlpanel, and probably for the virtwebserver as well. Pls, tell me were to find a step by step instruction or similiar. Tried to search the web and forums but found so much alike my question but nothing I felt I could follow.
Seems all answers is in the thread below http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121 Sorry, for posting, just couldn't identify with what i found earlier.
Take a look at http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showpost.php?p=358&postcount=4 You send /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/ssl.csr/server.csr to your CA and paste the certificate into /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt, then restart ISPConfig.
Thanks Falko When I set up the SSL with Namecheap, I can select several server types. I am stuck between "Apache 2" and "Apache + OpenSSL". Which one should I choose? I installed everything in accordance with the Perfect Server Setup (Debian Lenny, ISPconfig 2). Edit: I chose Apache + Open SSL and completed all instructions. Looks like everything went just fine. Thanks for your help Falko
