It's long, but please read carefully.

I am trying to install an SSL certificate on my dedicated server with WHM/cPanel.

I have a dedicated IP to use with the SSL certificate.

My main domain is example.com (NOT www.example.com), and I have an account and website already running on it.

I bought the certificate for the main domain (example.com without www.).

I installed the certificate (successfully). I used the example.com domain, the dedicated IP and the same cPanel user which owns example.com (non-ssl)

I double checked ConfigServer for port 443 being open.

RESULT: https://example.com won't open, ssl check tool returns a "SSL is not configured on this port (443)" error.

I have three questions:

  • where did I go wrong, wht did I miss?
  • is it possible to have one domain on two ips (one for http, one for https)?
  • is it possible to have an ssl host with the same user as the regular one?
