Important Files & Directories

• Database credentials: /root/.cloudzy-creds
• SSL files: /etc/ssl/certs/humhub.crt & /etc/ssl/private/humhub.key

Enabling SSL with a Domain

Run the following command to generate a valid Let’s Encrypt certificate:

certbot certonly --apache --non-interactive --agree-tos --email [email protected] -d yourdomain.com

Open your Apache configuration file, and replace the IP address with your domain name, as well as the existing SSL certificate paths:

nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/humhub.conf

Reload Apache to apply the changes:

systemctl reload apache2

Notes

• You can later switch to a real domain and use Let’s Encrypt SSL (Certbot installed).
• Ensure SMTP access is enabled if email notifications are needed (Postfix installed).
• Review configuration in /var/www/humhub/protected/config/.
