  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question SSL not valid even though it was working before I used Plesk and more...

NoStonks

New Pleskian
Hey,

I am on AWS and had my website secured with https etc.
Now with Plesk it is asking for SSL. I tried uploading the .pem but it says invalid.
Found a guy on the forum that I should try to go into Tools & Settings > General Settings > Server Settings and check the field content of "Full host name". to my address name.

1. The issue is still there the .pem is saying is invalid. Does anyone know how to resolve this? It is asking for a .crt file as well idk where I would get that.

2. When I go into tools & setting --> updates. I just never ending loads... Should I maybe change back to what I had before I changed the full host name?

I am new to this if that isn't obvious yet.

Thanks for any input.
 
An SSL certificate must be associated with one or more hostnames. Selecting the correct names is very important because the certificate will be valid only if the request matches the hostname (or hostnames) associated with the SSL certificate.
So, if you changed hostname - a new certificate for this hostname is required.
There is a full instruction on how to secure your connection with an SSL certificate: Securing Connections with the SSL It! Extension
I hope it will help you with understanding.
