Step 2 - Configure the Apache server
- Locate the Apache configuration file (example httpd.conf), the configuration file name can be different depending on your Apache version or flavour. The configuration file will need to be updated to reference your server certificate, private key and intermediate certificate files.
- In the Virtual Host settings for your site, locate the SSL certificate settings section and verify that you have the following 3 directives within the Virtual Host. Please add them in if they are not present:
- SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/ssl/crt/public.crt <-- This is your server certificate file for your domain
- SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/ssl/private/private.key <-- This is your private key file
- SSLCertificateChainFile /usr/local/ssl/crt/intermediate.crt <-- This is your intermediate certificate.
