Hi @hz46, and welcome to the LE community forum

Apache for Windows is configured much like Apache for Linux.
Have you ever defined a TLS enabled virtual host in Apache?

Hi Rudy

Thanks for your hint. Have not (yet) enabled TLS in my APACHE engine. Will try TLS and look intoy a LINUX conf how to configure ist for certbot certificates. Will work on this Saturday(out of office tomorow).

Cheers Hans

If all else fails certbot may be able to create a (very default) TLS enabled vhost from the HTTP vhost.

Hi
I found the solution. I used acme for WIN11. After generating the .pem certificate files, I adjusted the filepath & names in the sslconfig file for APACHE24. Everything works fine now and as intended. This saved me the day . . .

I adjusted the filepath & names in the sslconfig file for APACHE24

That's how it's done for all Apache(ies).

@hz46

I used acme for WIN11

In this case, any Windows ACME client that produces .pem files would also solve this problem (this way).

In any case, I am glad to hear that your site is now encrypted
