Install Certbot: Certbot is a tool provided by Let's Encrypt to automate the process of installing SSL certificates.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install certbot
**Stop Apache: ** Before obtaining the SSL certificate, it's good to stop Apache temporarily to avoid any conflicts.
sudo systemctl stop apache2
Obtain SSL Certificate: Use Certbot to obtain a certificate for your server.
sudo certbot certonly --standalone -d your_public_ip
Follow the Prompts: Certbot will ask you for an email address and agree to the terms of service.
Configure Apache: Now, you need to configure Apache to use the SSL certificate. Open the Apache configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
Inside the VirtualHost block, add the following lines:
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName your_public_ip
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/your_public_ip/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/your_public_ip/privkey.pem
</VirtualHost>
Enable SSL Module and Site: Enable the SSL module and your site configuration.
sudo a2enmod ssl
sudo a2ensite default-ssl
Restart Apache: Restart Apache to apply the changes.
sudo systemctl restart apache2
Hello
please follow the link it will help to install ssl:
Generally, it is only possible to use an SSL certificate with a domain name. I think this is because it is difficult to verify the ownership of the IP.
Technically, it is possible, and some vendors may sell such certificates, but I do not know of any.
If you only need to use it, you can issue your certificate.
