Please... I am not even making remarks about you asking openssl questions at httpd.So, is this wrong forum for asking about openssl commands required for generating certificates for enabling https on apache?I can easily look at openssl website or other websites and look how to create self signed certificates. However, I was not sure if that would work on apache. That's why I asked here.Most of the websites showed how to generate .pem certificates, but after reading about ssl/https on apache website, I saw that apache requires .crt certificates.Obviously, I can figure out this whole thing if I read whole openssl manual and apache ssl configs, etc. but I don't want to invest time in that and I was looking for a quick solution and that's why I posted here.
I think most people will understand that I try to make you see the difference between developing an application and how it is hosted/used what ever, operate within your area of expertise.I know this and I told you that I want to hard code https. Now, please tell me how can my idea go wrong?Please don't tell me how other people's unrelated ideas went wrong.Let's have a meaningful discussion.I don't work for any company.I do freelancing. I am doing this project for a real estate client. So, its only me who will do everything and decide everything - development, testing, maintenance hosting, hard coding, migration, https, ssl, etc.I would really like to know how my idea of hardcoding https can go wrong?
