Well if you are using letsencrypt with a password protected website is hard to renew the ssl because you need to bypass that .
If you have access to httpd conf the easy solution is to add this
<Directory /var/www/path/.well-known/> Order allow,deny Allow from all Satisfy any </Directory> Then restart the apache/httpd.
Well to use this we must use the SSLPassPhraseDialog functionality of httpd – apache .
Basically into ssl.conf we put this line or modify the existing one into
SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/path/script
Where script is read/execute only by root.
And the script is
#!/bin/perl
$server = $ARGV[0];
#print $server;
if ($server eq ‘www.example.com:443’ || $server eq ‘www.example2.com:443’ ) {
print ‘password one’;
} elsif ($server eq ‘example3.com’) {
print ‘Password two’;
}
If you have bellow error you should install mod_ssl
“Invalid command “SSLEngine”, perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration”
The error message indicates that the module mod_ssl required to run SSL engine on a CentOS server is missing and needs to be installed.
Install the mod_ssl module using yum
yum install mod_ssl
Once it is installed, make sure to restart the Apache service
service httpd restart
