Own SSL Certificate is not Valid

[gnulab]

Hi,

I am uploading a renewed certificate but I am facing the same problem as this post https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/9278/own-certificate-upload-problem which after uploading the ssl certificate files cloudron complains of "Certificate is not valid for this domain. Expecting test.domain.com".

How do I solve this?

Thank you
Henry

@gnulab you can run that locally on your laptop (I think it's also available on OS X). Alternately, you can upload the crt file to your server and run the command there. When you upload a cert, that is the command that Cloudron runs to validate the cert.

I assume you are uploading this in the Domains view. For which domains is the certificate valid? Cloudron is expecting a wildcard certificate.

Hi,

Yes, the purchased certificate is a *.domain.com and I am uploading it to here.

Can you check cat cert_file | openssl x509 -noout -checkhost test.yourdomain.com ? It should say "does match certificate" .

Hi,

do I ssh into cloudron to issue that command? If yes, what is the location of the cert_file? I searched through cloudron dashboard does not have terminal access, and I 'find -type f -iname *.crt' but don't see the certificate uploaded.

Turns out the certificate seller emailed the wrong private key.
@joseph thanks for the heads up.
