How to Install a Free SSL Certificate with Let's Encrypt (on Nginx and Apache websites)

Nice one

I would be lost without tony /bowdown

I can't seem to find the apache2 folder

Great content man :-)

Essentially after you have set up your nginx or apache server you execute

1) sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx
2) sudo certbot --nginx (dash dash)
You fill the questions being asked and then it is automated to update the nginx configuration file and then you are good to go!

Thanks a lot for your video. Saved me hours of searching.

Thanks a lot

How do you write this to execute by a bash script (no interactivity)

apt-get install certbot python-certbot-apache is not run

Thanks for the great content Tony!

I believe you mentioned namecheap, does it work for namecheap shared hosting package? Do you need to have delicate ip to install the ssl cert as you shown here?

Thanks Tony very helpful 😁

Hello Guys,
All command here and i fixed some place :

1.apt install certbot python3-certbot-apache -y
we install python3 because pyhton depracete it


2.certbot --apache



3.ufw app list

check your ufw if listed


4.ufw app info "Apache Full"


5.ufw allow in "Apache Full"

Can this work when I don't host my domian only point it to a vps servers with no control panel but I've set A record and NS records.I'm unable to get SSL install on my domain.

Hi ! Thanks for the tutorial, but after doing that I'm having a redirection error ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS. What should I do ? Having that my wordpress is inside a docker container and that I'm using reverse proxy configuration.

Super useful video. Thanks mate!

God bless you for making this video.

Thanks!

I had to use this command instead:
sudo apt --assume-yes install python3-certbot-apache

Make my websites ssl

Some considerations:
- The package now is called python3-certbot-apache
- If someone is doing this at home, make sure to set the firewall to open port 443 (ufw for ubuntu) and NAT port forwarding from port 443 to the internal ip address and the port in which the the website is hosted, normally also 443).

Thanks, Tny

Hi I got a question is ngrok more secure than port forwarding and more immune to ddos.

i am getting SERVFAIL error!!!!!

So Tony. What's up. I installed the certificate on the 18.04 ubuntu nginx. Certificate is valid. Tlv is 1.2,1.3. but it's saying some contents are still not secure. I have no idea how to resolve it. I'm stuck. It's an e-commerce site.

Hi man after installing the SSL certificate, i can no longer access the Admin dashboard. Can you please advise on that issue

is it wildcard ssl or not ???

Good video, I struggled for hours before getting to this video and like magic sorted in 5min

I got failed authorization procedure. These steps won't work for everyone. Nice try though.

Thank you for the video very easy to follow. Now my site is secure!!!! XD

Cant it be done on Hostinger's "Business Shared Hosting" plan. I have SSH access but can't implement your exact process.

Is not working for me.

How can I get the "wordpress.conf" file?

These steps will work with AWS EC2?

How to install a free Lets Encrypt SSL certificate from Apache Server to another server?

Hi Tony, You use Linode for wordpress hosting and ssl but how about the email server? In shared hosting we got webmail system is there anything like that? Thank you for your tutorial.

How do I find the ssh root access to the server?

It really works, thanks!!

Hey!

Can I do it if the domain name, and the server is on different network? And the server is behind NAT.
