Can not change SSL certificate for Control Panel

xxx

Basic Pleskian
Hello, guys.

I'm a little bit confused about SSL certificate for the control panel.

I'm using a brand new installation of Linux Ubuntu 12.04 with Plesk 11.09 #38

I have generated an official signed certificate using Plesk GUI. Everything is fine; the certificate was added at the panel and I get it into the list of SSL certificates.
After that, I have checked the box in front of the new certificate and I clicked on “use this certificate as standard for the panel†(something like this, because I’ve a German frontend ;-)).
At last I have deleted the default certificate.
Now, in the list is only one certificate which shows me the number “1†under “usedâ€. This means (for me) the new certificate is used by one domain (the control panel), right?

I open a new browser an enter https://alias.domain.tld:8443 and still get a message about a no valid certificate. But https://alias.domain.tld occurs no error and I get the right (new) certificate.

Now I don’t know where the “old†(no validated) certificate came from.

The folder /usr/local/psa/var/certificates show me three files, instead of one.

Can someone give be a hint what I can do to deleted the old default certificate completely and to map the new certificate for the control panel?!

Thanks a lot in advance!
