7.10 ssl apache2

For the records: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=4466&page=5

On Ubuntu 7.10

(as root)

# aptitude install ssl-cert
# mkdir /etc/apache2/ssl

Hardcoding cert lifetime based on this patch:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugre…?bug=293821#22

# make-ssl-cert /usr/share/ssl-cert/ssleay.cnf /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem

(Answer questions)

# a2enmod ssl

# cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/default /etc/apache2/sites-available/ssl

Modify it so it looks something like this

Code:
NameVirtualHost *:443
<virtualhost *:443>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

SSLEngine On
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem

DocumentRoot /var/www/
<directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</directory>

<directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
# This directive allows us to have apache2's default start page
# in /apache2-default/, but still have / go to the right place
# Commented out for Ubuntu
#RedirectMatch ^/$ /apache2-default/
</directory>

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</directory>

ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log

# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
# alert, emerg.
LogLevel warn

CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
ServerSignature On

Alias /doc/ "/usr/share/doc/"
<directory "/usr/share/doc/">
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks

Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128
</directory>

</virtualhost>

# sudo a2ensite ssl

don’t forget to modify /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

Code:
NameVirtualHost *:80
<virtualhost *:80>
