Solved SSL certificate passed, https:// not working

[patrickkasie]

Dear DA forum,

I've succesfully requested an SSL certificate for mail.website.nl and the website simply refuses to use https://. When forcing https://, it just shows up as "insecure". Why is this?

I've tried what's in the screenshots, followed up by the following commands:

./build update
./build letsencrypt
./build rewrite_confs

This did not solve the issue.

Check your certificate for mail here : https://www.checktls.com/TestReceiver

That how its works, its not an error

mail.website.nl and the website simply refuses to use https://.

Website? You should never use http(s)://mail.website.nl that is not how it should work.
Webmail works in another way. Like https://www.website.nl/webmail or https://www.website.nl/roundcube for example.
The ssl for mail.domain.nl is for mail clients.

If you want to use https://webmail.website.nl then you have to change something in the virtual host, there is a manual out there.

We've changed the A record of domain.nl to be on the same server and that obviously fixed it, but it wasn't something I was willing to touch.

If you want to use https://webmail.website.nl then you have to change something in the virtual host, there is a manual out there.

I've tried finding the manual, but my Googling skills are probably out of date. Do you happen to have a link?
Does that also mean that the MX records would have to change from mail.website.nl to webmail.website.nl as well?

No because MX records only point out who is receiving the mail but it has nothing to do with your webmail.

As for the change, try this:

change url webmail

I need to change the path of my webmail. ex: domain.com/webmail -> webmail.domain.com domain is on 2 servers, so i have 2 webmail too. server 1: webmail.domain.com (correct, email only) server 2: domain.com/webmail (web and bank only) how to proceed?
