install SSL certificate for a client

[mimosa7]

Hi there,

i have a dedicated server where i have multiple accounts with domains.

for my main domain on this server, i already have a ssl certifcate installed, affected to one dedicated IP adress.

Now, i would like to install a new SSL certificate that i bought from godaddy on a new domain in my server and i also have another dedicated IP adress. i already install the SSL certificate for the new domain (that was easy) but i dont know how to affect this new SSL certificate to the Dedicated IP adress i have in extra. Everytime i try something and went on the website and test : https://www.artistesmontreal.com, it pop-up a window that say that the certificate is the plesk default one.
( i also move the files for the website to the httpsdocs/ folder) but still not working.

Thanks for the help.

1. Make sure your domain is on an exclusive IP

2. Make sure the certificate is installed properly (need the Private and Certificate fields filled in)

3. Since you're using Godaddy, make sure to install the intermediate (CA) certificate as well

4. Make certain the domain is set to use the SSL Cert (under Setup)

5. Just for good measure, restart Apache

# apachectl graceful

Thanks for the reply. I install the SSL certificate properly and also the CA, no problem.

im confusing on how to affect this new SSL certificate to the Dedicated IP adress i have in extra. When i click on the domain name via plesk, and click on certificate, i can see the ssl certificate installed name "Artiste" with CSR, Private key, Certificate and CA certificate installed.

Now, when i click on "Setup", i cant see the dedicated ip adress i need to affected it to the domain. i just can see 2 others shared IP. But im sure that i have this dedicated IP because i can see it via server-->IP adresses

When i click on this dedicated IP, even if i try to affect the ssl certificate "Artiste" on it, nothing new happen. i mean it still doesnt work.

Hope you understand what my real issue is and thanks for trying to helping on it.

Hi mimosa,

You should go to plesk control panel, to server, IP Aliases, and first click on the number "0" that appears under "customers" in the desired IP line and assign the IP address to the customer.

Then you should go to the domain that you would like to assign the IP Address, and click on "Setup" under hosting, and then you can select the exclusive IP.

Hi Guys,

I've been searching through the forum trying to get help on the same type of thing on PLESK 8.2.1 The only difference is that my server only has one IP address so 10 domains are sharing it.

In the IP section of the site I have set the IP to shared rather than dedicated so the server knows it is for all domains. I then generated the CSR and received the key's back and uploaded them successfully under the domain I want to use it for, but as there is only one IP, I don't get the drop down box to allow me to select the new certificate over the default Plesk one.

Does any one know how I can get round this or if they know of a specific forum that answeres this as I've been searching and can't find one and am pulling out the little bit of hair I have left.

Thanks

Grant

2Mustang: try adding the certificate under the Server settings (not single domain), then assign this certificate to IP and set default domain for the IP.
In case the problem persists, check the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf for the line like:
<VirtualHost _default_:443>
If it exists you have to delete/comment this default SSL up till "</VirtualHost>".
Then stop\start (not restart) your Apache.
P.S. And make sure you're not on VE, as it has its own specificity... Hope this helps a bit.

still certificate is signed by " Swsoft " Plesk itself not Turbo SSL.

Hi Arnau Marcé,

I have done it till here.
__Then you should go to the domain that you would like to assign the IP Address, and click on "Setup" under hosting, and then you can select the exclusive IP.

I have also stopped apache and restarted it.

After doing it ! when i browse : https://www.mySite.com/

i get follwing result on browser:

Server Default page

If you see this page it means:
1. hosting for this domain is not configured
or
2. there's no such domain registered in Plesk

-----------------------
Also certificate is signed by " Swsoft " Plesk itself not Turbo SSL.

Any Idea.. ??
