Good day, I believe that I have got an issue similar to #60277. I have requested and been issued an new GoGetSSL that would expire in August. I then followed the instructions for installing the certificate (How to install an SSL certificate - Docs - InfinityFree Forum). I have checked that the certificate and private key newly uploaded in the SSL/TLS area of the control panel, and they match with the ones shown on the newly issued certificate in the client area of our account.
However, it would appear that the certificate fetched on our site is still the old expired one, even though I have waited for a few hours. I have tested with multiple browsers and private modes and received the same result, and we have checked with SSL checker as well, so it’s unlikely an issue of caching. I have downloaded the .pem from the opened site to check and confirmed that it is still using the old certificate. I also used the certificate decoder and verified that my new certificate is valid till August 7, 2022.
Good day and thank you. I am aware of the time needed for change, but I am not entirely sure how long it takes and whether I am still doing anything wrong, because it’s the first time I try to do so. I appreciate any help or advice.
A few hours after I updated the key and certificate in cPanel and posted the question, the site now instead renders an ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR on chrome, and both the client area and SSL checker now says there is no valid SSL certificate being active (No SSL certificate was found).
For your information, this is the certificate in question. Both the private key and certificate include the header and the footer.
I have tried both ZeroSSL and GoGetSSL. Now the certificate in my area is from ZeroSSL which I just uploaded again to try.
I have put the private key and the certificate in the SSL/TLS area in cPanel as below, and I clicked Upload Key and Upload Certificate as in the instruction. As they are still there when I return, I assume that they have been inputted correctly.
