Easy guide for new delegates to make a website on a vps

What you need to do after prepairing the vps with a user

1- Make a domain for your server and edit hostname to:

YOURSERVERDOMAIN

2- Install apache2

sudo apt-get install apache2

3- Install ssl certificate

sudo ufw allow 80/tcp
sudo ufw allow 443/tcp
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install certbot 
sudo certbot certonly --standalone -d YOURSERVERDOMAIN -d YOURSERVERDOMAIN

4- Activate ssl module

sudo a2enmod ssl

5- Edit config file of enabled site in apache

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

6- Put this in your config after deleting what was already in there

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName YOUR SERVER DOMAIN
   DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache2/htdocs
   Redirect permanent / https://YOURSERVERDOMAIN/
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
                ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
                DocumentRoot /var/www/html
                ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
                CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
                SSLEngine on
                SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOURSERVERDOMAIN/fullchain.pem
                SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOURSERVERDOMAIN/privkey.pem
</VirtualHost>

7- Restart Apache2 to make changes active

sudo service apache2 restart

Now you should see the index.html thats in your /var/www/html folder when you go to http://YOURDOMAIN and it should redirect to https://YOURDOMAIN
