Hi all, I have installed the SSL cert as per digital ocean’s tutorial.
However I am not able to access my site and it’s currently returning error 500.
Below are the only error that I found on my logs: [Thu Jul 28 07:40:11.803247 2022] [access_compat:error] [pid 49387] [client 121.103.225.127:40956] AH01797: client denied by server configuration: /var/www/wordpress/external.php
Would greatly appreciate it, if anyone could guide me to the right direction.

Hi there,
I believe that you would need to add the following to your Apache virtual host:
After that make sure to run a config test with
sudo apachectl -tand if you getSyntax OK, then restart apache withsudo systemctl restart apache2.Let me know how it goes!
Best,
