Having trouble installing Symantec Encryption Everywhere SLL certificate from name.com on OpenLiteSpeed WordPress on DigitalOcean

[wekesa]

I did everything below, and my certificate is still not activated. What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance!

1. I created an OpenLiteSpeed WordPress droplet on DigitalOcean.
2. I activated the Symantec Encryption Everywhere SSL certificate for my domain on name.com. (I don't think they are offering Let's Encrypt certificates.)
3. I generated the private key and CSR certificates on OpenLiteSpeed server using openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout domain_tld.key -out domain_tld.csr
4. I moved the domain_tld.key and domain_tld.csr to /etc/ssl
5. I entered the domain_tld.csr value into the activation screen on name.com
6. Name.com issued my Symantec Encryption Everywhere certificate, which includes the SERVER CERTIFICATE, INTERMEDIATE and ROOT CA CERTIFICATES.
7. I copied and pasted SERVER CERTIFICATE to domain_tld.crt and uploaded to /etc/ssl
8. I activated my OpenLiteSpeed 1.6.12 WebAdmin Console
   1. I went to Listeners
   2. Clicked on wordpressssl port 443 listener
   3. Referenced Private Key File as /etc/ssl/domain_tld.key
   4. Referenced Certificate File as /etc/ssl/domain_tld.crt

For OLS ssl setup, it should be as simple as https://openlitespeed.org/kb/ssl-setup/, your issue more like from the certificate itself, or if the certificate can be read by OLS as "nobody:nobody"

Just FYI if you want to use Let's Encrypt some day, just follow https://docs.litespeedtech.com/cloud/images/wordpress/#step-3 to apply the cert from the prompt script.
