| Anybody know about needing the public and private keys in the \conf directory in order to access my website without seeing the missing certificate error when i access the homepage? i'm trying to use the httpd-ssl file in the \extra directory. what steps should be taken to generate both keys that are insecure. Thanks. |

Self signed:
If your on Windows Vista/7/2008 run the command prompt window as Administrator (right click on icon, select "Run as Administrator";
| Code: | openssl req -new > server.csr
openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out server.key
openssl x509 -in server.csr -out server.crt -req -signkey server.key -days 365 |
you can do any number of days you want to, not restricted to the 365 I've used above
