SSL Self Signed Certificate Error

I have installed SSL Certificate manually that I had brought from Godadday. It installed successfully but it shows self signed certificate which is not trusted or displays cross on https.

What is the solution ?

Installing a SSL certificate requires some server administration knowhow, especially updating web server configuration.

DigitalOcean has a great tutorial on how to install a SSL certificate from GoDaddy: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-an-ssl-certificate-from-a-commercial-certificate-authority#example-ca-2-godaddy

Maybe it helps.

To check if you installed it correctly, you can use Qualys SSL Server Test at https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/index.html

It is showing because it does not recognized the certificate that you get from Godaddy. The CSR certificate has to upload on your site and make changes on apache config file.

Make sure your CSR file should not match with the private key that you submitted to verify your site.
