Ramboj686 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Hi, I recently got GeoTrust QuickSSL Premium Wildcard SSL certificate for my hosting website but I'm getting error "The certificate uploaded is NOT for the domain name rehostind.com." . Since I got a "Wildcard" SSL it can also be used with sub-domains but I'm unable to install the certificate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just install the certificate via cPanel and it will take some time to take effects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfinityFree Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Wildcard SSL certificates are not supported on free hosting. You need to use a regular, domain specific SSL certificate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'm not able to issue a Let's Encrypt SSL and Cloudflare breaks the site...Is there any "safe" way to get certificate without breaking the site?

Somehow Lets Encrypt is working on my site tho but I'm unable to reproduce the step to get Lets Encrypt on my forum. And yeah, Cloudflare will break the site... Thanks @PlanetCloud for replaying...but you seem to have managed to use Let's Encrypt somehow.And also @InfinityFree you're using Cloudflare..How?

If Cloudflare breaks your site, then it's your website which is not working as it should. Many, many people use Cloudflare on free hosting without any problems. But it's important to note that infinityfree.net itself is not actually hosted on free hosting. It's one of the biggest free hosting brands in the world, you can't host a website that popular on a free hosting account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfinityFree Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 What I forgot to add (and cannot add because of bad forum permissions): try setting your domain to Full SSL instead of Flexible SSL. All sites are SSL enabled by default, and many scripts (and .htaccess samples) don't like Flexible SSL because they don't consider the possibility of using HTTPS URLs without handling HTTPS themselves.

I know it's hosted on Google Cloud Platform but how is that possible @InfinityFree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's hosted on Google Cloud Platform but how is that possible @InfinityFree? Just set it up like you would set up any other hosting service? But I can recommend setting up one domain for your main website (infinityfree.net in my case) and another domain for customers (epizy.com primarily, for me). Doing so gives you a lot more flexibility in hosting your own site and helps ensure that a phishing site slipping the net won't trash the reputation of your main site.
