Configuring and Installing an SSL Certificate for the Team Studio Server

Configuring Team Studio with an SSL certificate is a good practice. The Team Studio installer provides a step-by-step interface to help you do this.

Note: If you use a self-signed certificate, users receive an untrusted SSL certificate warning in their browser.

Procedure

  1. After installing Team Studio, run chorus_control.sh configure and select option 5.
  2. Run through the prompts provided to set up the necessary credentials for the SSL certificate.
    Note: If the system prompts you for a passphrase and you never set one during the install process, you can set one now. Type in the passphrase twice to set it, and then once more to authenticate it.
    Enter pass phrase for /usr/local/chorus/shared/server.key:
    Verifying - Enter pass phrase for /usr/local/chorus/shared/server.key:
    Enter pass phrase for /usr/local/chorus/shared/server.key:
    You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
    into your certificate request.
    What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
    There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
    For some fields there will be a default value,
    If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
