Renewing Certificate on Linux CentOS 7 Issues
by JIncredible84 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6Q3VA)
We currently host a filer on a VM (Azure) running CentOS 7. Recently our certificate on our filer expired and we kept getting the usual unsecured site warning. I tried to update the certificate by using the upload certificate on the filers application, however after a reboot my site is now not reachable. I get a "This site can't be reached refused to connect" I can SSH into the application, but the DNS name and both private and public IP refuse to work. I have uninstalled the yum packages and re-installed them again, but this has made no difference.
I'm not really clued up with the Linux environment, but I have checked the http.conf file as well as ssl.conf file.
What would be the likely cause for bringing the site down? Is there a way of using a default untrusted certificate so that I can atleast bring the site back up?
When I run 'systemctl status httpd' I get a 'Failed to start the Apache Server' message and 'httpd: Could not open configuration file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:' yet I can see the file in the directory
Thanks.
