[Solved] WP Mail SMTP Error [Move From cPanel to CyberP]

Hi Guys,

Please help me fix the WordPress email delivery error in WP Mail SMTP plugin. Using cPanel and LiteSpeed Enterprise it worked but when I transferred to CyberPanel and OpenLitespeed it has error. Using SMTP to deliver mail has the following error:

  1. Plugin Notice:
    Misconfigured server certificate.
    This means OpenSSL on your server isn’t able to verify the host certificate.
    There are a few reasons why this is happening. It could be that the host certificate is misconfigured, or this server’s OpenSSL is using an outdated CA bundle.
  2. Error Log:
    Versions:
    WordPress: 5.7
    WordPress MS: Yes
    PHP: 7.4.15

I was able to fix it by doing a Full Back in cPanel and transfer it to Cyberpanel using the commands. Auto import cPanel sites to CyberPanel - 04 - Websites - CyberPanel Community
Before I transfer it the slow way, transfer database and public html.
