My previous post was for SSL certification installation on Nginx. Now in this, we will see how to install SSL on apache.

Steps to install SSL on apache

Navigate to Apache configuration files


/etc/httpd/conf


Here you will get httpd.conf file. First of all, you have to set the file permission to edit the file. After that, you have to create a new virtual directive into it. open your httpd.conf file and update the below code at the end of the file.

<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName www.yourdomain.com
DocumentRoot YOURDOCUMENTROOT
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile Path to certificate file
SSLCertificateKeyFile Path to key file
</VirtualHost>

In the Above code replace your domain name and certificate file paths.Save the above file and restart the apache by command.

Sudo service httpd restart

After restarting the server you may face below listed error 


Starting httpd: AH00526: Syntax error on line 356 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid command 'SSLEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

Fire below command

yum install mod24_ssl 

After this command again restart your apache server. 
That's all :). 

Now your domain will work with HTTPS.
