I set up a GoDaddy certificate earlier this week. I used Option #2 from here: https://www.paessler.com/knowledgebase/en/topic/283-how-can-i-use-a-trusted-ssl-certificate-with-the-prtg-web-interface

Install Open SSL as the instructions, however for GoDaddy you have to change the command to generate a 2048 key. I found the info here: http://blogs.digitss.com/apache/openssl/generating-2048-bit-csr-with-openssl/

Here is the modified syntax:

openssl req -new -nodes rsa:2048 -keyout prtg7.key -out prtg7.csr -config openssl.cfg

After that just follow the instructions in Option 2 and it should work fine.

OK, good info so far, but I have hit a snag. I installed OpenSSL (I missed that in my original research) and generated the Cert.

The instructins say I should have 5 files. The actual .crt plus 4 I need to combine. I am not getting these. I only get two. I tried renaming the on with the domain name and PRTG7.CRT anf the other as ROOT.PEM and copying them in to the \cert directory but when I try to stop/start the server it fails.

Thanks for the help so far. Can you get me home now??? ;-)

AHHH Maybe this was a dumb oversight by me. You need to copy the .key file from the \bin directory to the \cert directory.

Problem solved...

Hi jorgemial,

Thank you for the contribution!

Please note that I edited the link to the coupon site out, we do not want to link back to such sites, sorry.

Best regards.
