CSR generation for PositiveSSL and PositiveSSL WildCard with Apache2/OpenSSL see: CSR Generation: Using OpenSSL (Apache w/mod_ssl, NGINX, OS X):
openssl req -nodes -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout myserver.key -out server.csr
To generate the CA bundle see this article:
cat COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt > your_domain.ca-bundle
Found this article which said:
sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ssh.plist sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ssh.plist

Today I was forced to lookup how to treat <blockquote> and <p> elements. It turns out you wrap paragraphs with blockquote, i.e.:
<blockquote><p>...</p></blockquote>
Today I had to look up all the various ways HTML might nominate a content-type and I found Character encodings in HTML over on Wikipedia which had all the answers…
Today I had to lookup how to set the target frame of a form.
Basically you set the ‘target’ attribute on the form to the name of the frame you want to target.
Today I discovered the $wgRawHtml setting which allows for the inclusion of HTML in MediaWiki pages. Wicked! :)
Today Apache complained about SSLCertificateChainFile being deprecated and it told me to use SSLCertificateFile instead.
SSLCertificateFile was already in use with the .crt file. I had to create a new ‘SSLCertificateFile’ by concatenating the .crt file with the ca-bundle, and that fixed the problem:
# cat trust.jj5.net.crt trust.jj5.net.ca-bundle.pem > trust.jj5.net.pem
I followed these instructions to install PHP 5.4 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
Basically:
$ sudo apt-get install python-software-properties $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5 $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
I had a problem with my rewrite rules, that looked like this:
DocumentRoot /var/www/trust.jj5.net
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) http://trust.jj5.net/sorry.html [L,R]
I was trying to redirect any request which didn’t match a file or directory. The !-f and !-d requirements were failing because the path to the REQUEST_FILENAME wasn’t fully qualified. I fixed the problem by including the DOCUMENT_ROOT:
DocumentRoot /var/www/trust.jj5.net
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) http://trust.jj5.net/sorry.html [L,R]
Happy days! :)
