# SSL
|
|
|
|
OpenPanel automatically generates and renews SSL certificates for all domains using **Let's Encrypt** or **ZeroSSL**.
|
|
|
|
You can also configure a **custom SSL certificate** for any domain via **OpenPanel > Domains > SSL**.
|
|
|
|
## Custom SSL
|
|
|
|
To use your own SSL certificate:
|
|
|
|
1. Upload your certificate files via **OpenPanel > FileManager**.
|
|
2. Go to **OpenPanel > Domains**, then click **SSL** next to the domain.
|
|
3. Under **Configure custom SSL**, enter the file paths for:
|
|
* Certificate file (`.crt`)
|
|
* Private key file (`.key`)
|
|
4. Click **Configure**.
|
|
|
|
Once configured, your custom certificate details will appear on the same page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## AutoSSL
|
|
|
|
**AutoSSL** is the default option in OpenPanel.
|
|
If you're adding a new domain, no action is required.
|
|
|
|
To switch **from a custom certificate back to AutoSSL**:
|
|
|
|
1. Navigate to **OpenPanel > Domains** and click **SSL** for the domain.
|
|
2. Click **Switch back to AutoSSL**.
|
|
|
|
The certificate will be re-issued automatically after the domain is accessed via `https://`. Once generated, it will be displayed on the same page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
|
|
To ensure successful SSL generation:
|
|
|
|
* The **A record** for the domain must point to the server's **IPv4 address**.
|
|
* The DNS must be **fully propagated**. Use tools like [whatsmydns.net](https://www.whatsmydns.net/#A) to check.
|
|
* The domain must be accessed via `https://` at least once to trigger certificate generation. Open the domain in a browser using `https`.
|
|
|
|
If:
|
|
|
|
* The domain was just added,
|
|
* DNS is not yet pointed to the server, or
|
|
* The domain has not been accessed over `https://`,
|
|
|
|
Then the SSL section will show **“No certificate found.”**
