The SSL Command Forge
Stop wrestling with manual SSL commands. Generate a complete, error-free, and sequential `acme.sh` script to secure all your domains in one go.
Generate Your Script NowYour Consolidated Script
From Manual Chaos to Automated Clarity
Securing multiple websites shouldn't be a complex, error-prone chore. See how the SSL Command Forge transforms your workflow.
The Old Way: Manual & Risky
- Manually typing long, complex `acme.sh` commands for each domain, risking typos.
- Forgetting to handle both `www` and non-`www` versions, leading to incomplete security.
- Struggling with Punycode conversion for international domain names (IDNs).
- Wasting time by issuing commands one by one and waiting for each to complete.
The Forge Way: Automated & Flawless
- Generates a complete, validated bash script to handle all domains sequentially.
- Intelligently includes both `www.` and non-`www` versions for every domain.
- Automatically and flawlessly converts all domains to Punycode behind the scenes.
- Creates a one-and-done script you can paste and run, freeing you up for other tasks.
Technical Deep Dive
Your comprehensive guide to understanding the tool's output and mastering SSL deployment.
ACME.sh is a powerful and popular shell script for obtaining and renewing free SSL/TLS certificates from Let's Encrypt and other ACME-compliant Certificate Authorities. It's written in pure shell script and doesn't require any dependencies like Python, making it lightweight and versatile.
The `cpanel_uapi` hook is the modern, recommended method for `acme.sh` to interact with cPanel servers. It uses cPanel's official API to automatically install the certificate, private key, and chain to the correct locations, then gracefully restarts the web server to apply the changes. It's the most reliable and integrated way to deploy certificates on cPanel.
This is an excellent question. Our tool generates client-side commands based only on the inputs you provide. The script is entirely visible to you in the output box for review before you copy it. We generate standard, well-documented `acme.sh` commands with no obfuscation. We always recommend you give the generated script a quick review before executing it.
This specific tool is optimized for cPanel by using the `cpanel_uapi` deploy hook. While the `acme.sh --issue` command is universal, the `--deploy` command would need to be changed for other environments (e.g., using `--deploy-hook nginx`). We plan to add options for other server configurations in the future!
Run in a Stable Session
For a large number of domains, the script might take a while to complete due to the built-in pauses. If your SSH connection drops, the script will terminate. It is highly recommended to run the script inside a terminal multiplexer like `screen` or `tmux`.
Example: Start a new session with `tmux new -s ssl-session`, paste the script, and if you get disconnected, you can reconnect to your server and resume the session with `tmux attach -t ssl-session`.
Check the Logs
After the script finishes, it's good practice to check the main `acme.sh` log file for any errors or important notices. You can usually find this log at `~/.acme.sh/acme.sh.log`. Looking at the log can help you diagnose any potential issues with a specific domain's verification or deployment process.
