Setup Domain untuk GOWA

  1. Buat file baru di /etc/apache2/sites-available dengan nama gowa.example.com.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName gowa.example.com
</VirtualHost>
  1. Kemudian aktifkan virtual host dan restart Apache
sudo a2ensite gowa.example.com.conf
sudo systemctl restart apache2
  1. Buat SSL untuk gowa.example.com dengan run ini
sudo certbot --non-interactive \
-m [email protected] \
--agree-tos \
--no-eff-email \
--apache \
-d gowa.example.com \
--redirect
  1. Edit konfigurasi setelah membuat SSL selesai (port 443) filenya ada /etc/apache2/sites-available/gowa.example.com-le-ssl.conf
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName gowa.example.com

    SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/gowa.example.com/fullchain.pem
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/gowa.example.com/privkey.pem
    Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf

    ProxyPreserveHost On
