Process • Copy certificates to your server. This includes your server certificate, private key, and an intermediate certificate.

Your server certificate can be obtained from the delivery e-mail. Alternatively you can get it from your GlobalSign Account by clicking Edit on your order and copying the Certificate PEM Format text from the details. The private key would have been generated along with the certificate signing request (CSR); it may very well already be on the server.

If the private key is lost, you will need to reissue your certificate. The intermediate certificate used will vary depending on product type. Click your product type in our section to identify the correct cert. • Open your Apache configuration file for editing. This will generally be found in one of the following locations, depending on your OS: On CentOS/RedHat: /etc/httpd/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/sites-enabled/name-of-virutalhost.conf On Debian/Ubuntu: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/name-of-virtualhost.conf The configuration may be in different location. A detailed mapping of configuration paths can be found on the. • Configure your virtual host to use the certificates.

Locate the virtual host for your site. DocumentRoot /var/www/examplesite ServerName example.com www.example.com SSLEngine on SSLCertificateFile /path/to/examplesite.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/privatekey.

Depending on your system, run the command: apachectl configtest or apache2ctl configtest This will detect any errors in your configuration such as mismatched public & private keys, or an incorrect path. • Restart the Apache service. For older versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux use init scripts as stated below: CentOS/RedHat: service httpd restart Debian/Ubuntu: service apache2 restart For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 or CentOS 7.0 use the following commands: CentOS/RedHat: systemctl restart httpd.service Debian/Ubuntu: systemctl restart apache2.service Note: Some Apache configurations may show an entry for SSLCACertificateFile. This field is only needed if you use Apache for client authentication.

The SSLCACertificateFile would point to a CA certificate or directory of CA certificates that issue certificates you accept for client authentication.
