Adding more domains to existing Let's Encrypt SSL certificate

littleaotearoa

Hello all,

I currently hosted 2 websites on aaPanel. One of them is hosted under 2 domains

For example:
domain.co.nz
domain.com

When I created this website 1 month ago, I requested Let's Encrypt SSL for these two domains and turned on 'Force HTTPS'. Later on, www.domain.com and www.domain.co.nz were added to the domain list of the website in aaPanel.
However, when users access www.domain.com from Firefox (it's fine on Google Chrome), the browser will say it's not secure connection as the SSL certificate is for domain.com and domain.co.nz only.

Therefore I need to add www.domain.com and www.domain.co.nz to my SSL certicate. I tried to 'Disable SSL' and then re-apply via File verification mode but not successful.

Error code as below.
ACME_QUERY_V_RESULT
|-verification failed!
|-Verification failed, domain name resolution error or verification URL cannot be accessed!

Could anyone share some tips with me?

Kind regards,
Scott

Two certificates of different domain names cannot be deployed in one site,
for example:
cannot be deployed in one site

aaa.com
aaa.net

can be deployed in one site

aaa.com
www.aaa.com
bbb.aaa.com

you need to divide them into two sites to deploy

Try DNS verification maybe it works

Hi Jose,

Thanks for your reply.
As I mentioned earlier, I assigned two domain to one website on aaPanel back in July. After that I applied Let's Encrypt SSL certificate successfully which contains both domain. Screenshot below.

The problem happens when I disable current SSL and try to apply Let's Encrypt with www.domain.com & www.domain.co.nz.

Error code as below,

ACME_QUERY_V_RESULT
|-verification failed!
|-Verification failed, domain name resolution error or verification URL cannot be accessed!

I'm wondering if I did it incorrectly. Do I need to remove the SSL manually in root folder before applying for a new one?

Kind regards,
Scott

Which authentication method do you use?

if use [File verification]

Do files exist in this directory?

/www/wwwroot/website_name/.well-known/acme-challenge

Hi Jose,

Yes, I used file verification method.
Should I remove the files in this folder after I disabled SSL? What is the correct procedure to completely remove an existing SSL certificate from aaPanel?

Kind regards,
Scott

According to the file path it prompts, can you manually access it to display the content?

This is an error caused by Let's Encrypt authentication excuse not being able to access your website’s authentication file

Hi Jose,
Thanks for your reply.
I tried it again but now the panel just stopped at 'Creating order...' status for more than 20 minutes.
I will try restart VPS + panel and see if it works.

Disable the SSL in website setting and renew it again all the domain will show and then you can apply lets encrypt or any other SSL Certificate

i have same problem. use below command in ".htaccess" project file :

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/.well-known
</IfModule>

it's work for me.

In some projects you have to refer the requests to the public folder. Because of this, this makes the folder inaccessible

Is it possible to add domains and activate SSL without affecting the already issued SSL? On cPanel, this process can be completed seamlessly. However, I am concerned that every time I add a domain, Let's Encrypt might block the certificate re-issuance due to multiple attempts.

Any insights?

aaPanel_Kern

Hello, yes, you can also use an existing certificate

webz

aaPanel_Kern Thank you. The initial requirement for adding a new domain and applying SSL to it is disabling SSL on existing domains. Is there an alternative method to avoid disabling SSL for existing domains while adding new ones? So, may be is there any SSH code available that can be executed or any other way?

aaPanel_Kern

Hello, the ssl of the existing domain name will not be disabled

webz

aaPanel_Kern Although I am aware that it is not disabled, disabling the SSL is necessary in order to install SLL on a newly added domain. Without doing so, there is no option to install SSL on the pop window SSL install section.

Do you understand where am I coming from?

aaPanel_Kern

It is recommended that you intercept more information, but it is impossible to determine what the problem is

aaPanel_Kern
Please see the screenshot. I hope this clarifies the problem I ma having. As on cPanel SSL installed independent.
aaPanel I need to do following in order to install SSL on addon domain.

aaPanel_Kern

Not supported, it is recommended that you try to create a new site with a different domain name

webz

What do you mean by not supported? I have a SaaS application installed and I need to add domains as registered customers. Everything is fine except for the trouble of adding new domains. Additionally, in order to support wildcard, I have to use DNS verification, which is another inconvenience.

I am a loyal user of aaPanel without any doubt. In fact, even though I don't actually need it, I will still purchase the pack just to show my support. However, if you want to be a serious competitor to cPanel, the details really do matter. It may seem like a small issue to you, but because of this problem alone, I am still unable to cancel my expensive cPanel license!

aaPanel is superior to cPanel in terms of being cleaner and providing faster response times. So please continue your good work but keep in mind that your competitor currently holds the largest market share and you are lacking in certain features!

aaPanel_Kern

If your added domain name is in the same domain as the wildcard domain name, then there is no need to re-apply for SSL
SSL must be reapplied if the domain name does not match
It is recommended to create a new site in different domains

webz

aaPanel_Kern and I not on same page.

I do NOT want to create new site. I want to add domain to my SaaS website.
Only way to do this adding domain. I am aware of that no need to re-apply SSL but it is necessary to disable the SSL for the website to include newly added domain on SSL. I hope you understand.

So aaPanel compare to cPanel lack of this feature. If not let me know how to do this.

cPanel I can addon domain and do not need to bother with other domains SSL
aaPanel I have to disable the SSL first to apply SSL on addon domain.
