Apache SSL Not Working on Remote

Postby lavanyadeepak » 04. November 2019 15:32

I have installed a Wordpress using XAMPP on our DEV server. I have also configured the SSL Certificates purchased from Godaddy for the same. When I check out in https://localhost the page is served although with a Invalid Certificate warning because there is a name mismatch

However when I try to view the URL using its domainname like https://www.myclientdomainname.com/, the browser tries for a long time and then say Timed out. The server is in AWS and I have ensured all ports are open. The same certificate works fine when using IIS. And in XAMPP control panel when I click the START button it does display 80,443 in green. Nothing reported in any of the logs be it apache or eventvwr.

I have been trying all possible research on this since Thursday. Can some one guide me where am I getting drifted and misdirected?

How did you install WordPress? Did you install it locally? What did you apply as "Servername" at installation time?

Servername was domain name only.

I can make it simpler. Leave alone Wordpress. In that folder I have a simple file like phptest.php with contents

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

Even this one is not getting served on https. Only on http this URL is getting served.

What exactly did you do to configure the domain for SSL in your Apache configuration?
Without knowing your configuration it is nearly impossible to provide detailed help.

Do I need to share the conf files? Which conf files do you require?

You don't need to share anything, but it could most likely help to find idengtify issue.
We need especially information about the domain configuration.

So did you touch any of the httpd-ssl.conf or httpd-vhost.conf files?
Did you define any virtual hosts at all? Where did you place your SSL configuration?

Can you find the access trials in your Apache access.log?
is there anything in your Apache error.log?

in httpd-ssl.conf just the following attributes were updated

ServerName
DocumentRoot
ServerAdmin

SSLCertificateFile
SSLCertificateKeyFile

In httpd.conf

DocumentRoot

Nothing significant in the logs though. No. Not even anything in System Eventlog log too.

Is there a .htaccess file in your folder? If yes, rename (or remove) it and try again.

And show us the access_log. If there is no access_log, you have to reconfigure Apache and create an access log.
