SSL / Re: New SSL cert broke my server

« on: May 10, 2024, 09:06:35 AM »

UPDATE

I have been able to determine that after the ssl is applied apache fails to reload

The apache logs show:

Code: [Select]

I have changed my servername above but the actual domain name and my server sub domain both resolve to my IP correctly.

Does the server on my local DNS need to be operating or can I rely on my domain name provider?

SSL / New SSL cert broke my server

« on: May 09, 2024, 11:11:23 PM »

I have setup a new server with Almalinux 8.9 and CWP. I have installed Wordpress using Softaculous.

All worked well until I used the AutoSSL feature. It installed the cert ok - or so it told me - but on testing it failed.

I can now no longer access my site or CWP! It seems Apache is redirecting all traffic to https. How can I manually remove the redirect using bash?

I am used to using Ubuntu and the Apache config files are not where I expect to find them.

Any help would be appreciated

Installation / Re: Cannot add user 'Domain is in use'

« on: May 09, 2024, 10:15:38 PM »

I went back and stared at the screen and then it hit me.....

I needed to change my hostname to server.domain

For others having this trouble go to Server Settings -> Change Hostname

and then I could use my main domain name for the new user.

Hazzah!

Installation / Cannot add user 'Domain is in use'

« on: May 09, 2024, 09:56:30 PM »

Hi All,

I have recently installed Almalinux 8.9 and CWP on my personal server. The server is replacing an old server. The new server has the same address as the old one on my local network and my domain name traffic is forwarded from my static IP at my router.

The install was a success and without any configuration I could surf to my domain and get the CWP default page.

All installation steps were done using the root account directly on the server (I didn't use an SSH connection).

I have installed the premium version of Softaculous.

I need to create a user in CWP in order to access the user panel and use Softaculous to install Wordpress but I cannot add a user with my only domain name as I get the error that is cannot be used as it is already in use.

Have I done something wrong during installation perhaps?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
