Installation Instructions- Stronghold
This document provides instructions for installing
SSL Certificates. If you are unable to use these instructions for your
server, VeriSign recommends that you contact either the vendor of your
software or an organisation that supports Stronghold.
Step 1: Install CA Certificate
Secure Site
If you are installing a Secure Site Certificate, you
need to first install the Secure
Site Intermediate CA Certificate.
Secure Site Pro
If you are installing a Secure Site Pro Certificate,
you need to first install the Secure
Site Pro Intermediate CA Certificate.
Note to ISP Center Customers: Certificates enrolled through
VeriSign's ISP Center do not need the Secure Site Intermediate CA Certificate
installed at this time.
- Paste
the components into the file "ssl/certs/intermediate-ca.cert"
located in your ServerRoot directory.
- Change
the SSLCACertificateFile directive in your httpd.conf file to this:
SSLCACertificateFile certs/intermediate-ca.cert
Step 2: Install the SSL Certificate
VeriSign will email you your certificate. If
the certificate is an attachment (Cert.cer), you can use the file. If
the certificate is in the body of the email, copy and paste it into
a text file (such as OriginalCert.txt) using Vi or Notepad. Do not use
Microsoft Word or other word processing programs that may add characters.
Confirm that there are no extra lines or spaces in the file.
- Run getca
and specify both the name of the server that owns the ID and the name
of the temporary certificate file. For example:
# getca hostname /tmp/cert.tmp
- This
saves the Secure Site Server ID & Commerce Site Server ID to the
file SSLTOP/certs/hostname.cert Remove the temporary file. For example:
# rm/tmp/cert.tmp
- Restart
the server.
