I am unable to access my website after SSL installation.

[Aaron Martin]

Why am I facing this issue?

[River Brown]

Yes, you may face this issue as a result of the SSL installation requiring a DNS modification to your domain's "A" record. You can still be using the old DNS settings to resolve your domain after the SSL installation. Normally, those changes should take effect immediately, but if they don't, you can still access your website using the cached DNS data.

You should allow a few hours to pass and then try to access the website after the installation.

The process needs some time to activate.

Several factors could be an issue in your inability to access your website following SSL installation. Here are a few options:

Incorrect SSL installation: If the SSL certificate was improperly installed, it could be difficult to access the website. Verify that all procedures were completely performed and that the SSL certificate has been installed.

Mixed content: The inability to load your website if it has HTTP and HTTPS mixed content. Make sure that all of the resources on your website, such as links, photos, and other files, are loaded through HTTPS.

DNS propagation: If the DNS settings were recently updated, it can take some time before the website can be visited through HTTPS because DNS updates take some time to propagate over the internet.

Firewall settings: Access to the website through HTTPS may be restricted by firewalls or security programs. Make sure your firewall's settings and configuration aren't preventing HTTPS traffic by checking them.

Server configuration issues: The website may not be able to load through HTTPS due to problems with the server settings. Look for any problems or warnings in the server logs that can point to the problem.

After looking into these possible reasons, if you're still not able to connect to your website, it can be good to get in touch with your web hosting company or SSL certificate supplier for more assistance.

Make a habit of clearing your browser’s cache and the local DNS cache for accessing websites.
