Install SSL certificate for FileCloud on Ubuntu

 

  1. Add SSL support in Apache. (Enable SSL only if it is not enabled already)

    sudo a2enmod ssl



  2. Copy the SSL certificate provided by your certification provider and SSL private key file to the apache directory. The certificate file is renamed as server.crt and intermediate chain file renamed to server-ca.crt and private key file is renamed as server.key

    $ sudo mkdir -p /etc/apache2/ssl

    $ sudo cp server.crt /etc/apache2/ssl

    $ sudo cp server-ca.crt /etc/apache2/ssl 

    $ sudo cp server.key /etc/apache2/ssl 



  3. Modify your webserver configuration (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-Default) to use the issued ssl certificate.  (NOTE: The ServerName must match the server name in the SSL certificate)

    <VirtualHost *:443>

    # Admin email, Server Name (domain name) and any aliases
    ServerAdmin support@xyz.com
    ServerName server1.xyz.com

    # Index file and Document Root (where the public files are located)
    DirectoryIndex index.php

    DocumentRoot /var/www
    <Directory /var/www/>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    allow from all
    </Directory>


    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

    # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
    # alert, emerg.
    LogLevel warn
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined


    SSLEngine On
    SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/server.crt

    SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl/server-ca.crt

    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/server.key

     

    </VirtualHost>
