This guide will walk you through the process of generating a CSR code and installing an SSL certificate on the Virtualmin hosting control panel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Create a CSR code on Virtualmin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each applicant must create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and submit it to the CA for validation to obtain an SSL certificate signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). The CSR code is a block of encoded text that contains contact information such as the domain name and company name. Creating a CSR is simple in Virtualmin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Navigate to your Virtualmin dashboard.<\/li>
  2. Choose the domain you want to use from the drop-down list on the top left.<\/li>
  3. SSL Certificates make your website more secure.<\/li>
  4. Select Edit Virtual Server and then Enabled Features.<\/li>
  5. Check the box that says “SSL website enabled.”<\/li>
  6. Click the Save Virtual Server button.<\/li>
  7. Navigate to Server Configuration > Manage SSL Certificate, and then select Signing Request.<\/li>
  8. Verify the information you just entered and then click Generate CSR Now.<\/li>
  9. Virtualmin will now display your CSR code and private key. When requesting an SSL Certificate from your SSL vendor, enter the CSR code.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Install an SSL Certificate on Virtualmin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    After your CA validates your SSL request and sends the installation files to your inbox, open the ZIP folder and extract the files on your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Your Signed SSL Certificate is required for a successful SSL installation on Virtualmin. It’s also possible to add intermediate certificates or a CA Bundle for improved browser compatibility to your server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Follow the steps below:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Go to your Virtualmin dashboard and log in.<\/li>
    2. Select the domain you want to secure with an SSL Certificate from the drop-down list on the top left.<\/li>
    3. Click New Certificate under Server Configuration > Manage SSL Certificate.<\/li>
    4. Paste the contents of your SSL certificate file into the Signed SSL Certificate field.<\/li>
    5. Keep the Matching private key if you generated the CSR on Virtualmin.<\/li>
    6. Click Install <\/li>
    7. This is optional: select – CA Certificate tab then add CA Bundle or Intermediate Certificate if provided by your CA.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      You can now connect to your site using the HTTPS protocol. The SSL padlock should appear next to your URL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
