    Greetings everyone, i am facing issue with a new Option 22 wordpress vhost, Everything goes fine, the SSL is issued, but when i test the SSL i get an error


    A valid Root CA Certificate could not be located, the certificate will likely display browser warnings.

    And then when i tested it on SSLLAB, i got an error on 2nd Certificate, which shows another one of my vhost domain.

    Alternative names myotherdomain.com www.myotherdomain.com MISMATCH

    i tried force reissue but that dosent fix the issue.

    Nginx 1.27.x
    MariaDB 10.x/11.4+
    First try running your intended SSL certificate domain through the letsdebug.net online testing tool to check for potential errors with HTTP-01 validation. If you created Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 or higher Nginx site with Letsencrypt via centmin.sh menu option 2, 22 or nv command line, you now also have an automatic letsdebug.net API check log saved at /root/centminlogs/letsdebug-yourdomain.com-${DT}.log where yourdomain.com is domain specified during nginx vhost creation and DT is date/timestamp. Inspecting the /root/centminlogs/letsdebug-yourdomain.com-${DT}.log log will also give you clues as to why letsencrypt SSL certificate issuance failed.

    How was the initial letsencrypt ssl certificate obtained ? Which method ?
    • Was the domain nginx vhost alreadying created prior or new domain nginx vhost site setup for first time ?
    • Via centmin.sh menu option 2, 22, /usr/bin/nv ?
    • If you ran centmin.sh menu option 2 or 22, which letsencrypt option did you select from
      Code (Text):
      -------------------------------------------------------------
      Setup full Nginx vhost + Wordpress + WP Plugins
      -------------------------------------------------------------
      
      Enter vhost domain name you want to add (without www. prefix): acme3.domain1.com
      
      Create a self-signed SSL certificate Nginx vhost? [y/n]: n
      Get Letsencrypt SSL certificate Nginx vhost? [y/n]: y
      
      You have 4 options:
      1. issue staging test cert with HTTP + HTTPS
      2. issue staging test cert with HTTPS default
      3. issue live cert with HTTP + HTTPS
      4. issue live cert with HTTPS default
      Enter option number 1-4: 1
      
    • Via addons/acmetool.sh ? which specific command ? examples
      Code (Text):
      ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com
      
      Code (Text):
      ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com live
      
      Code (Text):
      ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com d
      
      Code (Text):
      ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com lived
      
    • What was order of steps you did ? Did you run centmin.sh menu option 2 first with letsencrypt ? Then did you run addons/acmetool.sh afterwards ?

    Centmin Mod Self-Signed SSL Fallback



    If you're seeing a Centmin Mod's self-signed ssl certificate instead of letsencrypt ssl certificate, then that's acmetool.sh and centminmod's fallback if letsencrypt verification fails to obtain letsencrypt ssl cert, it falls back to centmin mod self-signed ssl certificate on https port 443 side so to preserve the https nginx vhost

    Troubleshooting



    There are various steps you can do to troubleshoot failed letsencrypt issuances, renews, reissues etc.
    • acmetool.sh logs all command line or shell menu runs to log files at /root/centminlogs. To troubleshoot, copy the contents of the log run and post contents of log to pastebin.com or gist.github.com and share link in this thread. To find the log list the logs in ascending date order
      Code (Text):
      ls -lahrt /root/centminlogs
      .
    • For direct acmetool.sh runs, there should be a 2nd & 3rd & 4th log in format /root/centminlogs/centminmod_${DT}_nginx_addvhost_nv.log and /root/centminlogs/acmetool.sh-debug-log-$DT.log and /root/centminlogs/acmesh-issue_*.log or /root/centminlogs/acmesh-reissue_*.log which would need to be included via separate pastebin.com or gist.github.com post.
    • Enable acmetool.sh debug mode. In persistent config file at /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc (create it if doesn't exist) add and enable acmetool.sh debug mode which gives much more verbose letsencrypt issuance process information when you re-run acmetool.sh or centmin.sh menu options 2, 22 or /usr/bin/nv command lines.
      Code (Text):
      ACMEDEBUG='y'
    If acme.sh auto renewals didn't happen, check output for the following commands
    Code (Text):
    grep acme /var/log/cron* | sed -e "s|$(hostname -s)|host|g"
    

    Code (Text):
    echo y | /usr/local/src/centminmod/addons/acmetool.sh checkdates
    

    Code (Text):
    "/root/.acme.sh"/acme.sh --cron --home "/root/.acme.sh"
    

    Code (Text):
    echo | openssl s_client -connect yourdomain.com:443
    

    Without the answers to above questions and logs, there is nothing to help troubleshoot.

    SSLLabs Test



    Also run your HTTPS domain site through SSLLabs tester at SSL Server Test (Powered by Qualys SSL Labs) if it says untrusted SSL cert and prompts to continue the test, continue the test.

    Cloudflare



    If you use Cloudflare, instead of the default Letsencrypt web root validation, you can use Cloudflare's DNS API for Letsencrypt DNS validation for your domain. See the outline at bottom of page at Letsencrypt Free SSL Certificates
