Serve a self-signed SSL cert
(1/1)
ihaveawebsite:
Greetings all,
I have the Basic Hosting plan — meaning no normal SSL buttons in cpanel. I'd like to be able to serve a self-signed SSL/TLS cert if requested, mainly for my own access via https.
As I understand it, need to upload either the .crt or .key file to a subfolder of the ssl directory I see in the cpanel file manager. I believe I also need to edit either a httpd.conf or ssl.conf so the web server acknowledges the certificates. I can't find these files. Closest I can find is in /home/username/.cpanel/datastore/_usr_local_apache_bin_httpd_-v but it doesn't seem to be the file I need to edit. As the -v suggests, it is only version info.

I've been trying to use the first method as my guide:

Can anybody tell me what I need to do to serve my self-signed SSL/TLS certificates without SSL being on my plan?
