Configure your web site to use an x509 (aka SSL or https) certificate
The process of using an https enabled web site is fully handled in the members control panel:
- Log in via: https://members.mayfirst.org/cp
- Choose the "Web Configuration" section
- Edit your web configuration and change the "Port" field to "auto"
How does it work?
You have several options when choosing to configure your web sites.
auto ==
The best option is to use "auto." When your web site is configured to use auto, then:
- A letsencrypt certificate will be automatically generated at no cost for all the domains in your web configuration (both Server Name and Server Alias).
- This certificate will be automatically updated every three months
- All requests sent via http will be automatically redirected to https
http
If you prefer, you can opt instead to have an http-only site by choosing http.
https
You may also wish to use your own certificates, in which case select "https" and specify the SSLEngine On
, SSLCertificateKeyFile
, and SSLCertificateFile
parameters in your configuration that point to the appropriate files. Use this option if you don't want an http site at all.
Both http and https
You can also choose to have a different web configuration for http and https or control the redirecting in a more fine-tuned way.
