Security: Enabling SSL

HOME > SETUP > SECURITY: ENABLING SSL

Note: SSL is not fully supported for the Data Querying Tool. Individual Loris instances should set up their own SSL for their DQT couchapp hosting.

Enable SSL module in apache

sudo a2enmod ssl

Edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/$projectname

• VirtualHost port: change to *:443 (ssl) instead of *:80 (http)
• Verify: SSL Engine On
• SSL certificate: ensure that you have an SSL certificate (contact us if you have questions)

Restart Apache

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
