  • 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.

Unexpected behavior with intermediate certificate

New Pleskian
Hi,
I've just got stuck installing a new SSL Certificate on my virtual server.
In the Plesk 12 page I uploaded the certificate and Intermediate CA + GeoTrust Global CA; they all show up correctly and I got a confirmation green message.
On Chrome there's no problem, but on Firefox it says sec_error_unknown_issuer.

I discovered that the webserver seems to be refusing to provide additional certificates: trying to connect to the server using the command "openssl s_client" returns "No client certificate CA names sent"; even Qualsys SSL Labs test says that the chain is incomplete and only one (the one relative to my CN) certificate is actually provided, despite the intermediate showing up in the Plesk page.

I don't understand why this unexpected behavior and I need to fix it urgently.
Could you help me?

Thanks a lot
 
Hi, I'm not sure if you've figured this out. I've had a few certificates that were renewed that work great in some browsers (chrome) but not others (firefox). This is due to an older chain certificate retained on renewed certificates; as a result, I found (with GeoTrust certificates) you need to run their checker:

https://cryptoreport.geotrust.com/checker/

Then download and install the chain identified after the checker completes.

Regards.
