StartSSL on VestaCP admin panel

Posted on September 23, 2014

I’m new to Vesta / VPS. I understand how to add StartSSL to my domains (through the vesta panel) but how do I add it to my VestaCP install? I’m currently using Debian 7 x64.

For example if i go to the IP https://xx.xx.xx.xx:8083 it shows a self signed cert with a google chrome warning page.

How do I use StartSSL for the vesta side so when my clients log in to vesta they do not see the warning page?

I am using the free StartSSL.

Placed the new certificates in /usr/local/vesta/ssl/ and reboot or restart nginx and httpd

I’m using letsencrypt certificates on my vestacp admin panel, a lot less hassle to get / renew them.

you might want to try https://forum.vestacp.com good luck :)

tried the forum, doesn’t have anything on adding StartSSL to the VestaCP panel.
