Hi @drsnehal79,

Sorry for the information @michiel shared with you. We don't have a guide to configure a Let's Encrypt certificate in Windows. You can follow these steps:

Download the latest version of Lego from https://github.com/xenolf/lego/releases
Stop the Apache service of your installation
Open a command prompt and run the lego command

lego --tls --email="EMAIL-ADDRESS" --domains="DOMAIN" --path="PATH TO USE" run

Update the Apache's configuration to use those certificates: installdir/apache2/conf/bitnami/bitnami.conf file
Start Apache again

Let us know if you have any questions

Hi @drsnehal79,

What do you mean with this? Did you have any problems when generating the certificate? If so, could you please share with us the exact error message you are receiving when running the lego command?

Thanks

Hi @drsnehal79,

If you have Windows x64, you need to use the amd64 package. If not, use the 386 one.

If you want to obtain one certificates valid for multiple domains, you can specify all the domains using the --domains when running the lego command

lego --email="EMAIL-ADDRESS" --domains="DOMAIN1" --domains="DOMAIN2" --path="PATH TO USE" run

hi @jota,
thanks for reply. Is it possible to direct www.domain.com to non -www or domain.com without altering lego certificates.( as I am afraid ..it may disturb the current configuration).

Hi @drsnehal79,

Redirecting from your www to the non-www domain can cause problems with the certificates as well because the browser of the user will receive the information of a site with a wrong certificate when using the www. one. I suggest you create new certificates with the lego tool again.

Let us know if you have questions when configuring the new certificates

hi @jota,
Thanks for reply. I tried as you told me( --domains domains.com --domains www.domain.com) but it showing some error. Then i created two different certificates lik domain.com and www.domain.com and installed it.Now both www and non www are directed towards non www ssl site...it working now.
Please let me know your opinion if it is ok?

Hi @drsnehal79,

Please post the error if anything goes wrong so we have more information about what happened

You created 2 different certificates but the problem is that you can't configure Apache to work with both at the same time without using different virtual hosts

Can you access to these sites using a different browser or an incognito window?

Did you get any error message when accessing your site? If both sites work properly, then the configuration is fine.

Thanks

Hi @drsnehal79,

The redirection works properly in Chrome but not with other browsers like Firefox

The problem is that you are redirecting www.geetamart.com to https://www.geetamart.com and that's not a secure site. I suggest you generate a new certificate file that includes both domains.

hi @jota,
Issue solved. I was trying to obtain new certificate without stopping apache..so when server(lets encrypt) reaches domain.. it encountered old certificate...so was showing invalid response.( I think this might be the reason).when did by stopping apache...it responded with certificate.
now it is working with both www and non www domains in both browsers.
thanks and regards
