How to set ssl certificate on apache2, 1 droplet server running 2 wordpress websites?

Posted September 11, 2016
WordPress Ubuntu 16.04

Server was single install wordpress. I have installed a second wordpress site on the same apache server. I have purchased an ssl certificate from namecheap.com I follow their instructions to the t along with the suggestions on the tutorials here on how to create your own certificate and configs etc… but it seems to crash apache and the namecheap website doesn’t accept the ssl.

Is there a tutorial or advice that I can follow to solve this problem?

Thx
