accoring to cpanel docs:
Note: You can only install one SSL certificate per IP address for your websites. This means that in order to install an SSL certificate, the account must have a dedicated IP address. If your server only has one IP address, and you do not wish to set up a shared SSL certificate, you cannot use this function and will need to manually configure this process.
you have to do it manually:

et voila ^^
 
Just follow these steps and you''ll be on Secure connection :)

1 . Get a dedicated IP for that domain .
2 . Login into cPanel then click on SSL Manager .
3 . Click on Private Key and install that on the required domain .
4 . Create an CSR ( Certificate Signing Request ) ie Option 2 in SSL Manager .
5 . Fill up all details as asked and click create csr .
6 . You'll then be having CSR of domain , kleep it in safe place and buy SSL Cert from some company and then generate using that CSR . Once your request is received by SSL company they'll then forward an Email to your admin@domain.com or on mentioned email .
7 . Now you'll be having Cert for the domain , go to cPanel again then SSL manager select option 3 for generating Certificate , Upload your certificate their and it will be auto installed on your domain .
8 . Then again hit back to SSL manager and select last option to activate your SSL certificate on your domain . Better to go with domain.com option their instead of www.domain.com .

Once all the above is done , you'll be able to acess your site as https://www.domain.com & https://domain.com .

If you need any help regarding the same just PM me , i'll be happy to serve you .
