Certificate Eroor

  • Hey guys,

    I have just purchase a godaddy hosting package and installed wordpress onto it. However, when i tried to reach the website through the browser It shows a certificate error

    Your PC doesn’t trust this website’s security certificate.
    Error Code: DLG_FLAGS_INVALID_CA

    I would like to know what could be the possible issue and how can I fix it.
    Looking forward to your support.

    The URL you list above is wrong. Please double check.

    Did you have GoDaddy install an SSL certificate for your host?

    Dear Sir,
    Here is the working link https://beyondgains.com/ . No I didn’t select any such package which mentioned about godaddy installing an SSL certificate for my hosting account.

    You can’t use https without installing an SSL certificate. It looks like you may have a self-signed one. Those are really only useful when developing. Contact GoDaddy tech support. Last time I talked to them, they didn’t support the free LetsEncrypt certificates and only sold (fairly expensive) ones, but that may have changed.

    I will check with them. Any other options I could look into? Also my domain shows a cheaper option asking me to purchase a Trusted site status, do you think it will solve the certificate error?

    You’d need to ask GD what a “trusted site” means. Do you need any more than a simple SSL certificate? Probably not.

    No, I don’t need any more help apart from the SSL certificate thing. However, I fixed the issue. I was actually using my web address as HTTPS without an SSL certificate. Just changed by web address back to HTTP and now I don’t have any certification error.
