Appendix A:

SSL Certification for Apache

To configure and enable SSL certification for Apache in ESM, complete the following steps:

1. Obtain a signed certificate from an authority such as VeriSign.
2. Rename the artifacts before the extension to “server” (server.crt, for example).
3. Save the artifacts to the following directory:

Linux: /usr/local/exacq/esm/apache_solr/apache2/conf/
Windows: \exacqVisionESM\apache_solr\apache2\conf\

4. To force any user of ESM to redirect to https, open the httpd.conf file (found in the location from the

previous step. (at the above location)

5. In that opened file, remove the pound sign (#) from the following lines:

#RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
#RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [NC,R=301,L]
