I currently have a MEAN stack app powered by Bitnami running on an Ec2 instance. The site works fine except for https.
What I've done so far:
checked instance to ensure port 443 is enabled created certificate using openssl. I now have 3 files *.crt, *.key, *.csr. I put my certificate files in /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/ directory. edited 3 lines in /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf to point to the correct files. restarted server using the command: /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart
Now when I go to https://my-site-name I just get an error saying the connection was unexpectedly closed.
This is my first time deploying to AWS and I'm not really sure where to go from here. I don't know what steps I missed or even how to go about finding the root of the problem.
The issue with your use case is your were following incorrect guide please use this guide which is for AWS EC2 instance and will work correctly.
