On the server is a site that wants to be both SSL and non SSL, this is not something that is natavily supported by Sentora/ZPanel, so what we did in SSL on Zpanel / Sentora will not work here (sad face) EXPLICITLY DON’T do that! if you have done it like that (by that I mean the VHost Override) undo it now, and re run the demon and apachectl restart.

In order for this to work both accessible in port 80 and port 443, you need to add a custom SSL-Vhost manually (this is not ZPanel or Sentora Default Vhost Config).

You can try this if you are planning to give you panel accessible to port 80 and 443:

1. Do not touch the original VHOST
2. Create a Vhost file called: http-ssl-vhost.conf (or whatever file name you want as long as it is .CONF) in “/etc/zpanel/configs/apache” with the following:

   # DOMAIN: domain_name.com
   <virtualhost *:443>
   ServerName domain_name.com
   ServerAlias domain_name.com www.domain_name.com
   ServerAdmin [email protected]_name.co.uk
   DocumentRoot "/var/zpanel/hostdata/user_name/public_html/domain_name_com"
   php_admin_value open_basedir "/var/zpanel/hostdata/user_name/public_html/domain_name_com:/var/zpanel/temp/"
   php_admin_value suhosin.executor.func.blacklist "passthru, show_source, shell_exec, system, pcntl_exec, popen, pclose, proc_open, proc_nice, proc_terminate, proc_get_status, proc_close, leak, apache_child_terminate, posix_kill, posix_mkfifo, posix_setpgid, posix_setsid, posix_setuid, escapeshellcmd, escapeshellarg, exec"
   ErrorLog "/var/zpanel/logs/domains/user_name/domain_name.com-error-ssl.log"
   CustomLog "/var/zpanel/logs/domains/user_name/domain_name.com-access-ssl.log" combined

3. Follow the instructions in this post regarding how to store certificates.
4. Open your /etc/httpd/httpd.conf and insert this at the bottom:

   # Custom SSL Apache config
   Include /etc/zpanel/configs/apache/httpd-ssl-vhosts.conf

5. Make sure everything is correctly set… File, Path, and Configuration of your Cert and Key files.
6. Final step is to restart your Apache Service “apachectl restart”
