Help for those who have the desire to run SSL in Apache2:
1) Install apache2 and openssl
sudo apt-get install apache2 openssl
2) Generate a local certificate for our server. Usually it is getting valid for 1 year.
sudo apache2-ssl-certificate-days 365
3) Add the port on which Apache listens for SSL as standard.
echo "Listen 443" >> / etc/apache2/ports.conf
4) Enclose the SSL module.
sudo a2enmod ssl
5) Create and activate SSL page
sudo cp / etc/apache2/sites-available/default / etc/apache2/sites-available/ssl
6) Edit the file you created earlier.
sudo vim / etc/apache2/sites-available/ssl
7) Modify at the beginning of some lines.
NameVirtualHost *: 443 <VirtualHost *:443> ServerAdmin webmaster @ localhost SSLEngine On SSLCertificateFile / etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem DocumentRoot / var / www / </ VirtualHost>
8) Enclosed SSL page.
ssl sudo a2ensite
9) Well, and finally restart Apache.
sudo / etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
And since then we can enjoy an encrypted connection in apache. After entering this address for the first time should ask you to accept the certificate. https://localhost
