key, but I also had to make copies of the originals - from the “live” or “archived” folder, as I recall – and create a new folder in the LetsEncrypt directory.

With MAMP PRO I had to not only rename the files to. If it is like MAMP PRO, I suspect that it does not. I have no idea whether or not AMPPS accepts. Lack of the right answers to these questions has prevented me from proceeding forward with this.Īs I said, I haven’t specified any files yet, because I am not sure which ones to choose in each of the folders. No I haven’t tried symbolic links, or anything for that matter, the reason being - as I explain in my original post - that there are THREE files in each of the certificate folders, and I am not sure which one of the three I am supposed to use in each folder, whether or not I need to rename my LetsEncrypt files, etc. Their lack of support does not give me much confidence.

The problem is that the AMPPS certificate setup is substantially different from MAMP PRO, I have found no online documentation regarding how to set it up, and the AMPPS developers have not even responded to my inquiry in their support forum in a few weeks now. But lately, I have been trying to switch to AMPPS. However, that has been to use them in MAMP PRO. In fact, I have been renewing them via the Terminal app every 90 days for quite a while now. To answer your questions:Īctually, as I noted in my original post above, I ALREADY have all necessary certificates from LetsEncrypt. If there is an even easier way to do this – such as somehow just pointing my server to “private/etc/letsencrypt” – I’d love to hear about it. Can you please tell me which ones, and exactly how to edit them? I am assuming that I am going to have to edit some conf files somewhere. Which file goes in which of the above-named four folders?ĭo I need to rename these files so that AMPPS recognizes them as valid certificate and key files?

It is my understanding that I only need to be concerned about where to put the last two files, although I could be mistaken. I have the following four certificate and key files issued to me by LetsEncrypt, which I renew via the Terminal app every three months: Obviously, the ones that say “mydomain” above, actually have my real domain name.Īssuming that this is the right place to put the certificates – that is, copies of them – my three-part question is the following. In the “ssl_crt” folder, there are three files:įinally, the “ssl_csr” folder contains these three files:Īnd in the “ssl_key” folder, there are also three files: Thus, I have located the following folders in the AMPPS apache/conf folder: I found some online information which pointed me to AMPSS/apache/conf in my “Applications” folder.

However, I am in process of switching from MAMP PRO to AMPPS on my iMac.Ĭurrently, I am trying to enable SSL on my new AMPPS server using my LetsEncrypt certificates. It’s a bit of a strange setup, but it works. I have been successfully using LetsEncrypt certificates with MAMP PRO on my iMac for quite a while now.
