Hi Makanda, Have you tried the instructions on "Using SSL with Apache in front of Tomcat" that are in the official Installation docs?
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Installing+DSpace#InstallingDSpace-UsingSSLonApacheHTTPDinfrontofTomcat%28runningonports80and443%29 Those should provide a (mostly) step-by-step guide. I would recommend FIRST getting DSpace running in Tomcat (on port 8080), as that will ensure that you have all the DSpace prerequisites and everything else setup properly. Those basic installation instructions for DSpace are at: * DSpace 4.x install instructions: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC4x/Installing+DSpace * DSpace 5.x install instructions: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Installing+DSpace After DSpace is running in Tomcat on port 8080, THEN you can install Apache HTTP Server and configure it to run DSpace on port 80 and via SSL. Again, those instructions are at: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Installing+DSpace#InstallingDSpace-UsingSSLonApacheHTTPDinfrontofTomcat%28runningonports80and443%29 If there are specific issues you are having with those instructions, I'd recommend sending those specific questions to this mailing list. (NOTE: If you are installing a brand new copy of DSpace, you may wish to install either DSpace 4.3 OR DSpace 5.1 (latest version). There were security issues in DSpace 4.2 that have been resolved in 4.3 or 5.1. See these Release notes for more info: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC4x/Release+Notes) - Tim On 5/9/2015 3:06 AM, Makanda Maxwel wrote: > Hello, > > Kindly please help me with step by step procedure how to configure > dspace to use apache2 ssl https and also how to configure dspace 4.2 to > use host-name without the port no 8080 nor xmlui at the end am using > tomcat7.
