Enabling SSL

I didn't see anything that stood out as a better place to put this, so here goes... How do you enable SSL and upload the certificate with Cheeverto? I've looked through Cheeverto and can't find anything relevant. Or is it at a lower level and at the OS/webserver level? I would have thought that Cheeverto would have built in the ability to manage certificates from within its admin UI, but if I'm not just missing something in the UI and it is in fact done via the OS/web server level, so be it and I can take it from there. Just looking to determine which path I should be looking down for certain.
 
What you are looking for is to enable TLS, which varies depending on how you run Chevereto which is distributed in several options, it varies.
Hope it helps.
 
Ok, thanks. I don't want to do a automatic renewable SSL, but rather one I buy and provide, but I think this puts me in the direction I need to go.
 
So for anyone interested, I got SSL working manually with Apache2 for Cheverto without too much issue.

First, I followed the instructions here: https://www.namecheap.com/support/k...ficate-installation-on-apache2-debian-ubuntu/

From there, initially, the landing page worked fine on SSL but nothing else did.

What I ended up doing is copying the following from the 'Virtualhost *:80' section:

<Directory /var/www/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>

and pasting it into the 'VirtualHost *443' section. After doing that (and of course restarting Apache), everything has been working as expected.

I did also added a 'Redirect permanent / https://yourchevertoserver.url/' to the <VirtualHost *:80> section just above the </VirtualHost> to redirect all HTTP requests to HTTPS.
