A client of mine decided to go ahead and move from a self-signed certificate to a commercial one ("GoDaddy Standard SSL"). The first service I wanted to move to the commercial SSL cert was Webmin/Usermin... However, upon migrating to the new SSL cert and restarting Webmin, I got the following error:
[21/Oct/2012:13:12:47 -0400] Restarting
Failed to open SSL cert /etc/webmin/miniserv.cert at /usr/share/webmin/miniserv.pl line 4229.
Error: Webmin server did not write new PID file
And that's all it says.
Here's Webmin's config file (/etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
):

Here is a screen shot of the Webmin SSL config screen as well, for what it's worth:

When running the command openssl x509 -noout -text -in /etc/webmin/miniserv.cert
as Falcon Momot suggested, I get the following error:
unable to load certificate
