No matter which option you choose, it is important to be familiar with potential SSL issues and how to troubleshoot them.  In the next section, we’ll explore common SSL problems and steps you can take to resolve them. ## **How to Check for SSL Issues?** There are two ways to identify SSL certificate issues in ORIV: 1. **Using an SSL Checker Tool:** Several online tools can analyze your SSL certificate and identify any problems. These tools are usually free and easy to use. Just search for ‘**SSL checker tool**’ on your preferred search engine. 2. **Diagnosing SSL Failures:** Navigate to your ORIV dashboard and access the **SSL** option. This section will display any existing SSL certificate issues for your applications.

You can manage your DNS records through your domain registrar’s control panel. ### **3**. Too Many Redirects Errors\*\*:\*\* Conflicts between the Cloudflare and ORIV configurations or errors in the Cloudflare settings are frequently the cause of the **ERR\_TOO\_MANY\_REDIRECTS** issue.

Entre em contato com o nosso suporte em **[support@oriv.cloud](mailto:support@oriv.cloud)**. There are a few reasons for this Error: **Expired Certificate:** SSL certificates have an expiration date, usually within a year. This error will appear if the certificate has expired. **Mismatched Certificate:** The domain name that users are attempting to access may not be the one for which the certificate was issued. **Untrusted Certificate Authority:** This error appears if the browser does not recognize the certificate authority that issued the SSL certificate. #### **How to Fix:** * Check the expiration date on the certificate and renew it if required. The majority of hosting companies give automated SSL certificate renewals. ORIV hosting offers a free SSL certificate with a renewal. * Make sure the domain name, including any subdomains, exactly matches the certificate. ### 3. **WordPress Site HTTP to HTTPS Redirect Not Working** If your site is not automatically redirecting from HTTP to HTTPS, you will need to configure it. #### **How to Fix:** ORIV hosting comes inbuilt HTTPS Option. Enable it by toggling on the button from your SSL/HTTPS setting menu. > \[!NOTE] > Precisa de ajuda visual para esta etapa?
