How to generate wildcard certificate on shared web hosting server for some domain+subdomains

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is:kappa.net.in

I ran this command:certbot --apache
then list of domains show me then i have choose comma separated value as per instruction
on running script certificate also successfully generated but not implemented ssl protocol error occurs
It produced this output:

My web server is (include version):httpd 2.4.6

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):centos 6

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: self host

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know):

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):no

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot):

kindly help in this

Hi @neeraj

you have created some certificates ( https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=kappa.net.in#ct-logs ):

But you don't use the newest, instead, there is a wrong configuration.

http works, https not because your port 443 vHost is a http host.

How old is your certbot?

certbot --version

What says

apachectl -S

Remove the wrong vHost, then try

certbot -d franchisee.kappa.net.in -d kappa.net.in -d www.kappa.net.in --reinstall -i apache

Check the commands

If you are on a shared hosting plan, how do you manage your website, if not with a control panel?
