Title: Letencrypt and Password Protected Ibay - password required outside local network
Post by: MarkR on November 23, 2018, 06:39:01 PM

Hi All,

I have installed letsencrypt with no issues and all appears to be working ok, apart from if I select to Password protect the Ibay via the server manager

The apache authentication appears but the certificate is invalid?? (your connection is not private etc etc.)

Once past the apache authentication and on the actual website, the certificate then displays as Valid.

What could be causing this??  is the only way around this to create .htaccess .htpasswd on the ibay itself.

Hope this makes sense.

Many thanks in advance.
Mark

Good question as I don't see it myself. But that proves nothing much.

What version of letsencrypt are you running:

Code: [Select]

rpm -qa |grep letsencrypt
rpm -qa |grep dehydrated

Don't, at least for now..... that may cause other issues. Better to try and nail this one.

Not yet, but it may in time :-)

A little more info on my setup

Server Name : server.local -> primary Ibay ( not used, noo SSL setup )
Virtual Domain : www.website.com -> Ibay1  -  SSL cert working on site
Virtual Doamin : www.website2.com -> Ibay2  -  SSL cert working on site

Server-manager password protect Ibay2 - Apache Authentication ** NOT Secure **.

thanks in advance
Mark

OK - I can see this now. Have it on my main box when accessing a password enabled Internet wide ibay. And my box has letsencrypt enabled for the main domain too.

No idea I'm afraid. I can only guess that when it uses password authentication it somehow uses the original self signed certificate.

I'll see if someone else pops up with a solution. We may need to bug on this.

what happens if you set Ibay2 to : Force secure connections : Enabled
