SSL Installed using CertBot successfully but can't use it

Added by Le Dude about 7 years ago

I had installed the certbot for OpenProject successfully and got the SSL license but when I tried to connect to the https side of it, it only showed

Is there a setting conf file that I can check to make sure that it’s pointed to the correct direction? Please advise on how I should debug this whole ssl issue? I tried to find the httpd.conf or the ssl.conf for apache2 but it didn’t give me any clue on where the issue is.

OS: CENTOS 7
APACHE2

RE: SSL Installed successfully but can't use it - Added by Munkapad Workplace about 7 years ago

I did a SSL installation this afternoon and found that after the first run of “openproject reconfigure” apache did not start correctly, after a second run, did not change any answers, apache startend correctly and httpS was working fine

RE: SSL Installed successfully but can't use it - Added by Le Dude about 7 years ago

Thanks for the tip Munkapad. I finally got my OpenProject up and running with SSL. So the step is as follow.

1. Install OpenProject, but select NO to SSL.
2. Install CertBot.
3. When you know where your certificate is, make sure that you note it.
4. Run the OpenProject Reconfigure
4. This time select the install SSL and point it to where your SSL cert is.

One thing I learn the hard way is that you have to use the privkey.pem for the certificate instead of cert.pem. I followed the steps in some of the doc and it pointed to cert.pem and that caused the browser to show Invalid Certificate.

Hope this help some other noob who’s trying to make the OpenProject work for them.

FYI. I have Apache2, OpenProject 7.4 and CentOs7. Hope this help. :-)
