I have Wordpress installed in the root directory and configured properly using permalinks.

Alongside the Wordpress blog, I have a full-fledged custom developed php application with several pages. I want to not show the .php extension for any of the custom pages, but I'm now getting 404 errors for all the custom php pages.

http://url/blog-title-here (word press page - works)

http://url/register (custom php page - results in 404)

Here's what my .htaccess looks like:

# BEGIN WordPress 
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> 
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteBase / 
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L] 
</IfModule>

And here's what I have in httpd.conf

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule (.*) $1.php [L]
</Directory>

I'm moving my hosting from justhost.com (horrible) to the amazon cloud as it's cheaper, faster, and far more flexible.

My conundrum is that I will need SSL installed in the Amazon cloud. Note - I already purchased an SSL cert from justhost.com (actually through geocerts.com) and have the private key, domain cert and trust cert in my hand.

I have 3 files all downloaded from geocerts.

1) domain.crt :the cert for the domain

2) private.key : my private key

3) issuer.crt : the issuer certificate

Below is my httpd.conf snippet

NameVirtualHost *:443
<VirtualHost _default_:443>
ServerName www.casinobitco.in
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/ssl/domain.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/ssl/private.key
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/httpd/ssl/issuer.crt
</VirtualHost>

Now, in testing - the cert doesn't seem proper? It basically looks self-signed, fake, etc. https://ec2-54-232-212-186.sa-east-1.compute.amazonaws.com
