CentOS Apache

We have a droplet running Apache/CentOS 7.3.1611 and we need to install an SSL from Comodo. Does anyone have any resources that can guide us on how to do this?

Thanks,

Mike

Hi @mreisbeck

There’s a tutorial for implementing a self-signed certificate, but if you just ignore step 2, then it should be a pretty straight forward guide (otherwise chime back and we’ll try to assist you):

The certificate system also assists users in verifying the identity of the sites that they are connecting with. In this guide, we will show you how to set up a self-signed SSL certificate for use with an Apache web server on a CentOS 7 VPS.
