Installing a wildcard SSL for Spiceworks

iandaniels3 · 2019-02-25T12:01:58.000Z

Hi,

I have made a new installation of spiceworks and need to be using Spiceworks on port 443 only

I have set the require HTTPS for browser connections to User portal.

But how do I install my wildcard ssl and make sure that http is not accessable

I’d start here:

Or run a reverse proxy… which is way easier (IMHO). I usually use IIS with URL Rewrite and Application Request Routing (ARR), but an Apache or NGINX server can be used just as easily (and is usually faster to configure). The added benefit of using a reverse proxy is that you can automatically rewrite all HTTP requests to HTTPS.

Spiceworks Helpdesk and GoDaddy Wildcard SSL certificate Spiceworks Support

Have had a wildcard certificate for our company for a while and would like to issue it to our on prem (server 2008) Spiceworks helpdesk. I can see that there is a variety of threads on this subject about converting file etc but none that fit our problem or that are easy to follow. So from GoDaddy we have 2 files: One is a seemingly random line of numbers and letters 854dg8547g46e5gh.crt The other seems to be a bit more descriptive gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt So my question is do I need to conver…

That has failed for me,

I have a pfx file, I need to get this on to spiceworks

This is a company wildcard cert and the documents are very confusing

Tried to copy the cert onto spiceworks and the service wont start

I managed to get the wildcard on however it is saying mismatched names - does anybody have any idea how to change this without renewing the cert?

If it is a wildcard it should not say mismatch names.

Yeah it is defiantly a wildcard SSL
