The file you need to edit to enable SSL is httpd-ssl.conf found in the conf/extra directory.

Change the following directives:

  • SSLCertificateFile to domain_com.crt
  • SSLCACertificateFile to PositiveSSLCA2.crt
  • SSLCertificateKeyFile to the private key file you received when you created the CSR

    • Open " Terminal " and type: sudo nano /private/etc/hosts then add 127.0.0.1 your_domain.com and 127.0.0.1 www.your_domain.com, when done editing the hosts file, press control-o to save the file.

Then call sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/xampp enablessl to enable SSL in httpd.conf and restart Apache. Now try accessing https://localhost
