SSL Configuration/Install Difficulty

[mdmartin3571]

I have Deluxe Linux Hosting that hosts 10 domain names. I ordered a SSL Cert for 1 of these domains. I set up the SSL and it is active. I downloaded the cert files, and uploaded them under the webfoot for the specific domain name. I added a .htaccess file with the recommend HTML coding, and renamed the host/domain names. However, after this, when going to the website, it comes back with a SSL error, and will not direct to the website. I am not sure what I am doing wrong or if there is a better htaccess code or what else I may not get or doing wrong?

The Certificate doesn't get uploaded to the file manager but rather with cPanel itself

https://www.godaddy.com/help/manually-install-an-ssl-certificate-on-my-cpanel-hosting-12027 gives a walk through in where to do this

Yes I tried to follow this guide. However, don't seem to have anything in my hosting manager as "C Panel" or a Security Tab item. I do show an app for SSL Certificates and Website Security. However, whenever I click that it takes me out of hosting manager and back to my products page. Also, on the side menu I show a SSL Certificates, it says one is not purchased, and there is an add button which takes me to purchase one and no where to add it, and in my products I show the SSL Certificate for a specific domain that I purchased. However, when I go to manage it, I see that its active and good, but theres no where to add it to the hosting, to appear in the hosting manager? I may be missing something? I posted screen shots. Thanks so much for your help!

When I add my .htaccess folder and code the site returns this error.

This is the "Deluxe Linux Hosting" not the "Deluxe Hosting with cPanel"???

If that is the case - you need to speak with support about upgrading / migrating to the new server / platform. You are on an older server / platform - the newer cPanel is much easier to use.
