I can generate the cert but can't install it.

When I go to install it i get "Warning! the sslinstall feature has been disabled!"

I logged in as root and can't seem to find the option to enable this.

Try:

WHM - Packages - Feature Manager

there are options to toggle ssl manager and ssl host installer

He is right. This does not work. If you enable it in tweaks and featuer manager and try to use it from the control panel SSLManager it will still tell you its disabled. :confused:

Yea, I checked off all the options in there.
When I go into SSL Manager, all three option (Private Keys (KEY), Certificate Signing Requests (CSR), and Certificates (CRT) )say "Warning! the sslinstall feature has been disabled!"

Here's my version:
WHM 9.4.0 cPanel 9.4.0-R21
RedHat 7.3 - WHM X v3.1.0

I submited one on this today myself. No chance anybody found a tweak to fix in in the meantime?

I think this may be a misleading error.

Using the root account, I generate a cert for a domiain.
Once I did, going back into the cpanel for that domain, it no longer said it was disabled.

Nah, you shouldn't have to generate a cert with the root account, it should be possible to be done through the control panel. Got a comment in my bugzilla report on a fix:

"I got this error also, you need to go into your /home/USERNAME/ssl and delete
the certs in /certs and /private and they should be called something like
"sslinstall install feature has been disabled." Once deleted they are no longer
there and bam, it works. Hope to have helped."

So props to Logan Glantz as this solved it. Thanks.

it will be generated. The moment you access the ssl manager and ask for any cert installation these folders will be created. But make sure that these .. ie.. ssl and cert has no files until you create a cert.

that did not work for me :(

I got the key made. I removed the warning files from both directories of ssl folder. In cpanel > modssl > View It still shows "Warning! the sslinstall feature has been disabled!" I can pull the dropdown to the domain and it will show the keys.

but when I go to https://www.domain.com it redirects to http://www.host.com

Any ideas, many thanks too.

Go on, have a guess
Try not to dig up 2 year old thread, please.

If you're suffering from this problem I would suggest that you check bugzilla and if you don't find a current entry, create a new one if the problem is recreatable, otherwise log a ticket through your cPanel license provider.
