apache2 global SSL setup

noir911 · 05-19-2009, 12:36 AM

On OpenSUSE 10.3 I have several virtual host files under /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/. These files were created from the template: /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/vhost.template (not /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/vhost-ssl.template)

Does anyone know how do I setup SSL globally so all these virtual hosts can also be accessed on port 443? I have edited /etc/apache2/listen.conf and uncommented the line "Listen 443" and apache is now listening on port 443. But I haven't created the certificate files and not sure where to define the /path/to/certificate_files for the global configuration.

Thanks.

From #2 hit on Google with "apache suse ssl":

http://en.opensuse.org/Apache_Howto_SSL

You need the following commands:

Code:

a2enmod ssl
a2enflag SSL

There's loads of good docs online for getting setup. Let me know how far you get.
