OpenSSL CSR Creation for Apache SSL
How to generate a CSR for Apache using OpenSSL
Recommended: Save yourself some time by using our new OpenSSL CSR Wizard to create your apache ssl csr. Just fill in the details, click Generate, and paste your customized openssl command into your terminal.
If you will be using Apache for Mac OS X server 10.5, see our Mac OS X CSR instructions.
Of course if you prefer to build your own shell commands to generate your apache csr, just follow our old instructions below:
where server is the name of your server.

1. Login
to your server via your terminal client (ssh). At the prompt, type:
# openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout
server.key -out server.csr
Generate with SHA-2
# openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -sha256 -out server.csr -keyout server.key
Generate with SHA-2
# openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -sha256 -out server.csr -keyout server.key
where server is the name of your server.
Country Name
(2 letter code) [GB]:VN
State or
Province Name (full name) [Berkshire]:VietNam
Locality Name
(eg, city) [Newbury]:VietNam
Organization
Name (eg, company) [My Company Ltd]:VietNam Post Limited
Organizational
Unit Name (eg, section) []:VietNam Post
Limited
Common Name
(eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:www.vnpost.vn
Email Address
[]:pdelete@vnpost.vn
Please enter the following 'extra' attributes to be sent with your certificate request A challenge password []: An optional company name []:
2. This
begins the process of generating two files: the Private-Key file for the
decryption of your SSL Certificate, and a certificate signing request (CSR)
file (used to apply for your SSL Certificate) with apache openssl.
When you are prompted for the Common Name
(domain name), enter the fully qualified domain name for the site you are
securing. If you are generating an Apache CSR for a Wildcard SSL
Certificate your common name should start with an asterisk (such as
*.example.com).
You will then be prompted for your organizational
information, beginning with geographic information. There may be default
information set already.
This will then create your openssl .csr file.
3. Open
the CSR file with a text editor and copy and paste it (including the BEGIN and
END tags) into the DigiCert Certificate order form.
4. Save
(backup) the generated .key file as it will be required later for Certificate
installation.
