在Amazon EC2上无法使用HTTPS Node.js服务器

Question

My site is not working on HTTPS. Now it is working good on HTTP.

We added below code in server.js file, but we have no idea how to get private-key.pem and scr.pem files.

key: fs.readFileSync('./privatekey.pem'),
cert: fs.readFileSync('./server.crt')

Can someone tell me what I need to fix to enable HTTPS?

Answer 1

To get those files you have 2 options:

1. Generate private key and certificate on your machine using some tool like openssl, keygen, etc.

2. Purchase it online or some sites gives it away free for testing.

After you get those files, put the correct path and filename.
