''mod_ssl''模块为Apache2服务器添加了一个重要的功能 - 加密通信的能力。由此，当你的浏览器通信使用SSL时，https:// 前缀被使用于统一资源定位符（URL）前。

''mod_ssl''模块存放于''apache2-common''包中。在终端提示符下执行以下命令以允许''mod_ssl''模块：<br/><code style="background-color:lightgray">sudo a2enmod ssl</code>

在/etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl.conf中有一个缺省的SSL配置。为了让Apache2提供HTTPS，你还需要一个certificate（证书）和一个key文件。缺省的HTTPS配置使用的证书和key是有ssl-cert包生成的。他们用于测试非常好，但是对于特定的服务器或网站，它们需要被取代。如何生成key并获得证书请参看[https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/certificates-and-security.html Certificates]

配置Apache2 HTTPS请输入下面指令：<br/><code style="background-color:lightgray">sudo a2ensite default-ssl</code>

: <span style="background-color:lightgray">The directories /etc/ssl/certs and /etc/ssl/private are the default locations. If you install the certificate and key in another directory make sure to change SSLCertificateFile and SSLCertificateKeyFile appropriately. </span>

With Apache2 now configured for HTTPS, restart the service to enable the new settings: <br/><code style="background-color:lightgray">sudo service apache2 restart</code>

: <span style="background-color:lightgray">Depending on how you obtained your certificate you may need to enter a passphrase when Apache2 starts. </span>

You can access the secure server pages by typing https://your_hostname/url/ in your browser address bar.
