how do i set up ssl cert for my website running on ubuntu server in amazon aws?

  • 772

I have never set up ssl cert before.

I have 2 different domains hosted on the same instance in amazon ec2.

I need to set up ssl certs for both domains. I suspect the steps are the same for both.

I have finished sudo a2enmod ssl

I am stuck at the step at navigating to /etc/ssl/private because amazon only gave me a user called ubuntu and not root access.

Please write out for me detailed steps.

Thank you very much.

ubuntu apache-2.2 amazon-ec2 ssl-certificate

    It looks like the tutorial writer left out sudo -i after the sudo a2enmod ssl step. That will get you an interactive root shell, then you can finish the commands as written.
