Ubuntu 20
I installed my sites in a VM. Got wordpress up and running then just tried getting SSL’s working.
www.peterboroughbusinesstechnology.co.uk
www.alicetunnicliffe.co.uk
both my sites come up with the same error ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
I installed let’s encrypt SSL’s with webmin for both.
I tried to post the apache2.conf ssl.conf but the forum won’t allow as limited links needed.
I’m thinking is a global setting as its affect more than one domain, has anyone got any ideas?
From Apache2.conf

## SSL Global Context

## All SSL configuration in this context applies both to

# Pass Phrase Dialog:
# Configure the pass phrase gathering process.
# The filtering dialog program (`builtin' is a internal
# terminal dialog) has to provide the pass phrase on stdout.
# Inter-Process Session Cache:
# Configure the SSL Session Cache: First the mechanism
# to use and second the expiring timeout (in seconds).
# (The mechanism dbm has known memory leaks and should not be used).

# SSL server cipher order preference:
# Use server priorities for cipher algorithm choice.
# Clients may prefer lower grade encryption. You should enable this
# option if you want to enforce stronger encryption, and can afford

use cert per site…eg somesite.xom and www.somesite.xom… and that’s it…
this is not paid cert for all of your site’s, just use it gently and sensitive, if you insist one cert should do all of your things, pay for it.
I do have separate lets encrypt certs per domain. However I still get the same error across multiple domains. Which is what makes me think its a general server setup issue perhaps in ssl.conf. Rather than a local issue on each domain.
it could be an issue if you have fully qualified domain name setup wrong…
