I use Certbot to manage SSL certificates on this website running on Apache2, and I wanted to create a new secured subdomain.
It’s as simple as:
certbot --apache -d yourdomain -d www.yourdomain -d subdomain.yourdomain -d www.subdomain.yourdomain --expand
Don’t forget to add every initial domain. Also, the --expand
option is important:
--expand If an existing certificate is a strict subset of the
requested names, always expand and replace it with the
additional names. (default: Ask)
If you want to redirect all HTTP connections to the HTTPS version, duplicate your 443 vhost to a non-secured 80 vhost and add a rewrite rule. For instance:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.domain [OR]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =domain
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
