Any help is appreciated! I'm not a programmer just trying to learn networking, php and html.

I installed Calibre on my home Apache/Windows device [http://bendview.redirectme.net:8282/] and it works great... really loving Calibre.

Now I want to secure but having problems making my own certificate be recognized by CA. I see in Calibre there is a place to link to a certificate so this must be possible???

From my primary website (not Calibre) on a separate shared hosting service with SSL I want to access Calibre but I cannot due to security and an unauthorized certificate on my home Windows device.

Is there a way to install Calibre on my shared host server [like a webinstaller or code to extract into a folder] OR is there a way to get my host server to trust my self signed certificate?

I've been trying Let's Encrypt and Certbot and Windows MakeCert but always run into a problem. Does anyone have success with Windows 8 or 10?

Thanks!!!!
