How To Use Let’s Encrypt On VestaCP Login Panel (Port 8083)
Raw
Vestacp SSL
1. This is assuming you know how to login to your admin panel + creating a Lets Encrypt cert for servers hostname.
2. SSH into your server and enter these two commands to rename/backup the old files :
mv /usr/local/vesta/ssl/certificate.crt /usr/local/vesta/ssl/unusable.crt
mv /usr/local/vesta/ssl/certificate.key /usr/local/vesta/ssl/unusable.key
3. Create symlinks to point to the new ones (Replace admin with your admin username and server.domain.com with your server’s hostname (FQDN).
ln -s /home/admin/conf/web/ssl.server.domain.com.crt /usr/local/vesta/ssl/certificate.crt
ln -s /home/admin/conf/web/ssl.server.domain.com.key /usr/local/vesta/ssl/certificate.key
4. Restart VestaCP
service vesta restart
Broken Permissions Solution
To fix broken permissions, enter the following commands.
Replace server.domain.com with your admin panel’s URL:
chgrp mail ssl.server.domain.com.key
chmod 660 ssl.server.domain.com.key
chgrp mail ssl.server.domain.com.crt
chmod 660 ssl.server.domain.com.crt
