how to enable HTTPS for localhost:8080 - li'l urgent please

[hassanali20]

Hi friends,

i'm struggling to make use of HTTPS on my apache local server running on different port. Everything is fine if I make apache run on 80 (http) and 443 (https) but my setup is not like that.

80 is used by IIS server

I've configured 8080 for apache which works fine

now, how do i make https://<mylocalhost>:8080 works

is this correct

Code: Select all

Listen 443
Listen 8080

<VirtualHost *:443>
 
  DocumentRoot "<path to the project folder>"
  ServerName localhost:8080
  ServerAlias localhost:8080

  SSLEngine On
  SSLCertificateFile conf/ssl/server.crt
  SSLCertificateKeyFile conf/ssl/server.key
  <Directory "d:/csd/crimefreeze">
    AllowOverride all
    Options +Includes +Indexes +FollowSymLinks
    Allow from all
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

please help me with right configuration.

regards
hassan

Das geht nicht, man kann nicht http und https auf dem gleichen Port laufen lassen. Wenn man für http den Port 8080 wählt, muss man für https einen anderen Port definieren.

You cannot use port 8080 for both http and https!

If you want to use port 8080 for https://localhost:8080, you MUST USE A DIFFERENT PORT for http (for example 8888 or whatever you like, http://localhost:8888)

Got it now?!

sorry friend, its confusing.

can i just get the virtualhost configuration?

all i want to do is browse a project http://localhost:8080 and https://localhost:8080

are you saying it should be http://localhost:8080 and https://localhost:8081 for the same project? if so how to configure the virtualhost stuff. please help.

thanks again for so quick replies.
