Hello,

I wish to know the Compatibility between ZeroSSL and Lets Encrypt SSL Certs.

Suppose a domain is using ZeroSSL Certificate and later I switch to Lets Encrypt SSL then
later on will Lets Encrypt SSL re-generate/renew the SSL certificate that was issued previously by ZeroSSL?

Thanks
 
ill Lets Encrypt SSL re-generate/renew the SSL certificate that was issued previously by ZeroSSL?
No you can only use one of them on a domain, so Letsencrypt will renew the SSL certificate it generated itself.
The ZeroSSL certificate will expire in that case.

Edit: If you change from Zero SSL to Letsencrypt, the ZeroSSL certificate won't be used anymore anyway if all is well.
 
Saw this post from @fln


I think we shud support both by now -

So if some domain have ZeroSSL their SSL cert shud be renewed by ZeroSSL
and domain that have LE SSL they shud be renewed by LE SSL Service

Sometimes I have noticed, when LE SSL fails to generate cert, ZeroSSL generates SSL without any problem.
 
Just seen that post. And read the answer of DA that on a per domain base there will be a choice between both.
Still it's 1 certificate per domain, either ZeroSSL or Letsencrypt.

Mostly when LE SSL fails, there are underlaying issues. I've never had any LE issues for domains (only hostnames but that was a bug) at any time.
You can't have different certificates for the same domain name at the same time. It's always been one, even with bought certificates.

Seems what you want is a backup like "if LE does not work use Zerossl" and vice versa. If you want something like that it might be best to suggest such feature in the feedback forum.
 
Lets see what DA has for us in version 1.63.6, things can be improved later on with users feedback.
 
As of now can you tell me how to enable ZeroSSL for single DA account, instead activating serve wide.

Thanks
