I'm a new in hosting and setting up sites.

I've got a customer that has a site company.com. I bought them a SSL cert and installed it via WHM. its up in the installed SSL as company.com when you click it its trying to go to https:mycompany.com. Thats a unkown page.

I just a little lost does it need to be added to DNS? Sorry for being such a newb I just not sure what to do.

What I want to do is have thier site running and then if possible call thier store front (which is oscommerce) and then that be secure.

I don't know if you can secure a site if you call the oscommerce store front in a frame or if it would be just better to secure the whole site?

Please help.

Have you tried: https://www.mycompany.com ?

Sorry if that's a dumb question... but I'm serious ;)

https:mycompany.com isn't a valid URL :stickout:

yes, its comming up as not being found.

Looks like its configured correctly in httpd.conf

<IfDefine SSL>
Listen xx.xx.xx.xx:443
<VirtualHost xx.xx.xx.xx:443>
ServerAdmin webmaster@mycompany.com.com
DocumentRoot /home/mycompany/public_html
ServerName mycompany.com.com
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/mycompany -ssl_log "%t %{version}c %{cipher}c %{clientcert}c"
User myuser
Group mysuer
SSLEnable
SSLCertificateFile /usr/share/ssl/certs/mycompany.com.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/share/ssl/private/mycompany.com.key
SSLCACertificateFile /usr/share/ssl/certs/mycompany.com.cabundle
SSLLogFile /var/log/mycompany.com
UserDir public_html
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/mycompany/public_html/cgi-bin/
SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown
</VirtualHost>
</IfDefine>

I'm at a total loss
