Okay, so I edited the /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf file and found the ssl line and changed 1 to 0. I can now login again.

I am using Cloudflare... i'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. I even tried disabling their CDN and use DNS only. with no regard. My host says it's not them. So i'm stumped there.

How do I revert the SSL back to self-signed in the "webmin" configuration?

Thanks!

Please disregard, I am just going to re-install. Thanks!

Howdy -- sorry it sounds like you may be in a different timezone than we're in, we were asleep while you were seeing those issues :-/

I'm not quite sure what the issue there might have been -- if an SSL cert is working for Apache, it should also work great for Webmin.

If you have an issue like that in the future, you could always try copying a new (different) SSL certificate to Webmin.

Setting the parameter "ssl=0" is a good way to make it so you can get temporary access to Webmin.

One of the things to try would be to review why the browser thinks there is a problem with the SSL certificate (ie, what is the specific error message), that might help in the troubleshooting process.
