hello! good evening, I am using Sylius for academic purposes on ubuntu server 16.04 i386. I run the server with apache2 and I need to enable SSL security for my site but with apache and from what I have investigated I need several files including some with a .crt extension but I don't know where to get it or how to write it and the Sylius portal does not provide information about. I am new to this e-commerce thing. I hope you can help me; Thanks in advance.
To use a free and secure Digital Certificate, you can use
Let's Encrypt
the one that provides you with a free digital certificate for your domain. It is recommended that the public IP of your server be associated with a domain to useLet's Encrypt
. The ssl certificate lasts for 90 days, for this you have the Cerbot utility that automatically renews your ssl certificate, and it works this way for security.In the case of Apache on Ubuntu it is easy to configure
Let's Encrypt
, this is due to the fact that it already has a utility for the most popular Linux distributions.
