Two Cpanel servers, same issue
I'm trying to install Cpanel issued Server SSL certificates.
Both servers are getting this issue:
Certificate verification failed! The system did not find the Certificate Authority Bundle that matches this certificate. Contact “cPanel, LLC” to obtain the Certificate Authority Bundle for “cPanel ECC Domain Validation Secure Server CA 3”.
Certificate and Private Key boxes are populated.
Certificate Authority bundle has this message: CA Bundle #1: The system could not parse the certificate because of an error: Ignoring non-RSA key of type id-ecPublicKey
If I delete the message the server does not retrieve the CA bundle from the public repository.
Where an I download the CA bundle?

Hey there! When you say "cPanel issued" can you get me more details on that? Is this a certificate you purchased through the interface or was this issued by AutoSSL?
0 -
Autossl through WHM interface, shows issuer as CPanel.

Why is my reply pending approval since 2 days ago? I have two servers with Cpanel licences. One through Leaseweb and the other through Eukhost.

Alfaman - the Forums aren't monitored over the weekend, so it didn't get approved until this morning.
Could you submit a ticket on this? I don't understand why an AutoSSL certificate needs to be "installed" since that entire process is automated. Are you trying to install an AutoSSL certificate on a different domain maybe?
0 -
It's the Cpanel issued certificate for the server domain, for example server.cpanel.com.
I'll open a ticket, I've got the same issues on two servers.

If you can post the ticket number here I'd be happy to follow along!

I'd really appreciate your help, as the support I've received via the ticket so far is non existent.

Thanks for linking that ticket number. Your OS is too old to properly validate new SSL certificates, which is why it can't be issued. Your version of cPanel has been end of life since November 2020.
The only way to properly fix this would be to have your hosting provider update the machine.

Hi, cPRex.
It's really so difficult for cPanel support to paste the new CA Bundle in plain text so the ancient servers still not migrated could be working with SSL for another year?
Regards,

I'm confused about what the CA bundle would have to do with the SSL renewal process. Is the SSLs can't be generated, the CA Bundle likely isn't going to help.
The root certificate is the same for all domains as they all eventually go to the "ISRG ROOT X1" certificate, good until 2035.

Hi cPRex. Thanks for your reply, but this is not what I'm looking for as this is for ISRG ROOT X1.
I'm trying to use a certificate issued by "cPanel ECC Domain Validation Secure Server CA 3, cPanel, LLC" for my old server. This certificate is generated by /usr/local/cpanel/bin/checkallsslcerts command, but as I'm on an ancient version, the latest part of downloading CA Bundle certificate from repository, fails. Nevertheless, the certificate is available if I use the Change Service SSL Host option in WHM, but I need to paste the forementioned "cPanel ECC Domain Validation Secure Server CA 3, cPanel, LLC" certificate.
0 -
Can you paste the public portion of your certificate here? Not the private key, just the certificate data, so that way I know specifically what you're trying to use?
0 -
It would also be good to know your cPanel version and OS.
0 -
This ancient server is running cPanel v86.0.40 on CentOS 6.10. I know it’s way out of support, but there are some old websites running outdated PHP scripts that I’d rather not migrate at this time. Here is the certificate:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
.

-----END CERTIFICATE-----0 -
I'm stuck in exactly the same position and too be brutally honest if I have to go through the pain of a major upgrade it won't be with Cpanel again. I'll switch all my servers over to Plesk and save a bucket load of money. I'm having to upgrade purely for the Server SSL cert which is a bit ridiculous imho.

Can you try this one and see if that's a match for you?

I definitely wouldn't think about it as upgrading for *only* the certificate system, but many other things on the server will be painfully out of date with security issues. CentOS 6 has been EOL for 5 years now.

Thanks, but same error.

Can you let me know specifically *how* you're even getting an SSL without a CA bundle on the server? That's the part that doesn't make any sense to me.
0 -
And you're getting that screenshot even after manually copy pasting the CA bundle into WHM?
-1 -
This is a Cpanel issued SSL certificate for server.youdomain.com
Go to install it via 'Install an SSL Certificate on a Domain'.

There really isn't anything we can do in this situation - these systems are just too old to be properly secured.
0 -
May I know why it is so difficult to paste a simple CA Bundle here? Are there any security implications, or is there some kind of support policy that forbids you from doing it? If I'm not mistaken, with that certificate pasted there, we could proceed with our servers SSL, whose licenses are still active and billed monthly.
0 -
As I understand it, the CA bundle for those old certificates is no longer valid.
0 -
Those aren't old certificates. As you can see, they are generated recently with check-allsslcerts. In the example certificate I pasted before you can see cPanel, LLC is the issuer. In https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/community/posts/26884027819543/comments/28068351231511 other user pasted a CA Bundle but maybe it's outdated.
0 -
I know this isn't the news you want to hear, but there just isn't going to be a way to get this working. Both the cPanel version and the OS have been end of life for 5 years now, and placing SSL certificates on a domain would be the least of the security concerns.
It would be best to move these accounts to a more modern system.
Since we're just going in circles here I'm going to lock this thread.
