Installing manual certs on an ESXi server
PIKEDOM.COM has some very good instructions.
Something to know if you got your certs from certbot:
- The file you're replacing
rui.crt
with is eithercert.pem
orfullchain.pem
(depending on whether you've set up with one or more than one domain in your certs. - The file you're replacing
rui.key
with isprivkey.pem
. - Both of the files from certbot may have a number attached to the end of the filename itself.
So...
Loggin into the server to install
SSH into the server...
cd /etc/vmware/ssl
mv rui.crt orig.rui.crt
mv rui.key orig.rui.key
vi rui.crt
- Paste in the content of
fullchain.pem
- Paste in the content of
vi rui.key
- Paste in the content of
privkey.pem
- Paste in the content of
reboot
Using SCP to install the certs
Do This From The Web Server.
You should be able directly install certs on your ESXi server thanks to vmWares bad habit of allowing SSH as root...
sudo scp /etc/letsencrypt/live/NAME.DOMAIN.TLD/fullchain.pem root@NAME.DOMAIN.TLD:/etc/vmware/ssl/rui.crt
sudo scp /etc/letsencrypt/live/NAME.DOMAIN.TLD/privkey.pem root@NAME.DOMAIN.TLD:/etc/vmware/ssl/rui.key
ssh root@NAME.DOMAIN.TLD /etc/init.d/rhttpproxy restart
Of course, you'll replace NAME.DOMAIN.TLD with the actual name of your server...
