How to: Apache virtual host ssl configuration

July 3, 2009

Just thought of quickly putting this code on how to setup Apache virtual host ssl as when I initially setuped SSL certificate, it took me a while to setup. Hope this will help some one like me to quickly configure ssl on apache.

  #SSL works on port 443
SSLEngine on   #Start SSL engine
SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/ssl/server.crt    #path to your SSL certificate file
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/ssl/server.key #path to you SSL certificate key
 
ServerName example.com  #Your server name
ServerAlias example.com   #Your server name
 
DocumentRoot /var/www/example    #path to your website root folder
 
AllowOverride All
Options All
Order deny,allow
Allow from all

Once this is setupped correctly you will be able to use your URL by adding https in the beginning.

Note: You will need mod_ssl enabled in your PHP configuration

    Hi, I left you a DOFOLLOW backlink on my website. This isnt a spam message, i actually did leave you a backlink on my site. If you check the top of the page you will see “Sites we like” and there will be a link to this site. Would you be kind enough to leave me a backlink? If so my website is http://crush-the-castle.com please use the anchor text “Crush The Castle” for the link and add it to a post or as a widget. Then please send me a email at backlink@crush-the-castle.com – If you want me to change your links anchor text let me know. Thanks

    Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people think about worries that they just don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
