    Default Install/Update a SSL Host: Invalid IP specified

    I am trying to install a new SSL certificate for a domain. The certificate was successfully uploaded. When I go to "Activate SSL on Your Web Site" and select the domain, it does fetch the correct certificate (it matches the emailed one). However, I then get the error "Error from ssl wrapper: Invalid IP specified." I have also tried this from the root WHM SSL/TLS page, but the same "Invalid IP specified" error. And I changed the site's IP to one that is not in use by anything else, but this had no change.

    What could be causing "Invalid IP specified"?

    Yeah..To install an SSL on a domain, it needs to be on a dedicated IP. Make sure that the change in IP has been updated correctly. Did you change the IP through WHM >> IP functions >> Change a site's IP address?
