Regenerate certificate for ISPConfig

soho · Apr 17, 2011

Hello.

I installed ISPConfif under a domain and had to change it to another. How to regenerate a new certificate for the ISPConfig with the new domain?

ISPConfig 3.0.3 version.

This is from the ISPConfig 3 Manual:

(These instructions are for Debian/Ubuntu.)

The ISPConfig control panel login is running on http by default. This short tutorial shows you how to enable SSL encryption (https) for the ISPConfig vhost.

Make the directory for the SSL certificate:

mkdir /etc/apache2/ssl
cd /etc/apache2/ssl

Create the SSL certificate files:

openssl genrsa -des3 -out ispserver.key 4096
openssl req -new -key ispserver.key -out ispserver.csr
openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -in ispserver.csr \
-signkey ispserver.key -out ispserver.crt
openssl rsa -in ispserver.key -out ispserver.key.insecure
mv ispserver.key ispserver.key.secure
mv ispserver.key.insecure ispserver.key

Enable the mod_ssl module:

a2enmod ssl

Edit the ISPConfig vhost file...

vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/ispconfig.vhost

... and insert the following lines between the <VirtualHost ...></VirtualHost> tags:

SSLEngine On
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/ispserver.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/ispserver.key

Restart Apache2:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

The ISPConfig control panel login is now reachable on port 8080 by https.
