vmsecure SSL

Certificate from GODaddy, max applied years of 3
takes us to 20/10/2018 (probably the same day interest rates go up)

ok,
file to update located in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

all the details of the current? old SSL certificate are in there
currentl location of the certificates is /ect/apache2/ssl3/

____

To update to a new certificate

Go to Go Daddy, request a certificate re-newal,
USE the SAME KEY thats pretyped into the box.

you will recieved an Email where you have to Prove who we are,

Last time (2015)
I recieved a unique ID refernce number, I had to create a file
NgolQOtt.html where NgolQOtt is my unique ID
inside the file i put the plain text NgolQOtt

so this time (2018) do the same.
copy the file to the root level of intrastats

then send an email to GoDaddy telling them they can now verify the server
but they must use https:// to verify as http will not function (it goes to a different box)
---

Ok once the server is verified by go daddy (takes a few days) you will recieve an email 
with a link to the new certificates.
download the zip,
extract the ZIP
there will be 2 files inside the zip
on the main server 
sudo mkdir /etc/apache2/ssl4
copy then new files into there 
(i did this in 2015 by copying the files to T drive then on the server copying out again)

then copy the vmsecure.key file from ssl3 to ssl4

now edit the /etc/apache2/sites-enabled 

<VirtualHost *:443>
        ServerAdmin derek@vmscure.me.uk
        ServerName  www.vmsecure.me.uk:443
        DocumentRoot /home/network/intrastats
        SSLEngine on
        SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl3/8af3662fd187759c.crt
        SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl3/vmsecure.key
        SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl3/gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt
</VirtualHost>

Update the ssl3 to ssl4 and update the relevant CRT files.

then save the file
and restart the web server
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

and cross your fingers :D

once running bring up intrastats,
do a info check on the SSL padlock, and you should have in the new dates

Job Done.
