I use Create your own self signed certificate.
I have "Certificate and Key Saved!" result.
but when I try to open https://www.domain.com I have in firefox
www.domain.com uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed.
(Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)

Can you help me with this problem?
 
This is normal...nothing wrong with it.

Certs bought from trusted authorities don't show the message while self-generated ones do.

Click to expand...

If you create you're own certificate, then it is of course not trusted,
because if that is the case, everone could make is own trusted certificate
and is eg Comode out of business.... :)

you will get a warning from your browser but the data is stil encrypted.
so it is the most inexpensive way to use a ssl connection
 
What error do you get? Are the permissions set correctly for private_html and for your index file?

Do you own your own copy of DirectAdmin? If not, you should speak with your provider.
