      Thank you so much!!! I can finally go to bed now 😄

      BTW I would also recommend these lines in the default-ssl or default-ssl.conf (depending on what is in your folder when logged into your server
      /etc/apache2/sites-available/

      under: <Virtual host default:443>

      Find a place to put this three lines

      Header add Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=1576800"
      SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
      SSLCipherSuite HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5

      </VirtualHost>

      This will give you a better score at https://sslanalyzer.comodoca.com/

          So simple. I had to do a few trick on my apache configuration becabuse I compiled it from source but your post helped a lot. I have setting up my SSL on my Debian and Linux Mint distros.

                  Nice guide for integrating <a href="https://www.cloudways.com/blog/add-ssl-certificates-to-custom-php-sites/">PHP with SSL</a>. But this doesn't include how to write redirect rules so your http php site is redirect to https urls. You can write the redirect rules in .htacess.

                      AWS amazon, I was able to make this guide working in 2020.
                      anyway, for apache2/php7 you have to change this:
                      000-default-ssl is now default-ssl
                      also pay attention to symlink creation. if red, something bad. if its blue, good 4 you.
                      also, depending on the distribution, to check apache you may apachectl -V
                      cercatore @ github.com
                      or httpdctl -V
