SSL SOLVED

I bought a Positive SSL Wildcard Certificate from SSLPoint (reseller of Comodo) for $89/year.

 

You receive from Comodo:

  • Root CA Certificate - AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt
  • Intermediate CA Certificate - COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt
  • Intermediate CA Certificate - COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt
  • Your PositiveSSL Wildcard Certificate - STAR_simple-landlord_com.crt  (your domain here)

 

rename STAR_simple-landlord_com.crt to cert.pem

 

concatenate (just in notepad) together:

AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt

   COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt
   COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt

 

in this order and save to root.pem

 

Key.pem you need to create on your server UniGui already has good instructions for this:

I hope this helps someone

Hi to everybody

I'm testing Sectigo SSL Trial via the form on Server Space.

The requesti is very easy, I follow the wizard and I receive the certificate. I followed the post above, but I get this error : "Could not load key, check password"

I have left blank SSL pasword.  I need to understand this passage

Thanks

Hello,

When you baught your SSL, you have to genrate two Files :  CSR (.txt)     and   Private key  (key.pem)

1. Important :   This is done on Server Side  (VPS  or  Customer Server)

By the request (on this PC  server)  not yours ! 

Open a cmd :  
openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout key.pem -out req.csr
 

2.  Answer the questions and keep password :  empty

Country :  .....
State :  .....
Locality or City : .....
Company :  .....
Organisation : NA
Common Name :.....
Email :  .....
Challenge Password :   Press Enter to leave empty

 

Maybe your issue is from this challenge password  or you did the generation on your PC ?
