sudo service apache2 stop

There should be a enable_ssl.sh file in the installation directory. Call the enable_ssl.sh with your domain name

sudo ./enable_ssl.sh -d example.com

Usage:
sudo ./enable_ssl.sh -d {DOMAIN_NAME}
sudo ./enable_ssl.sh -f {FULL_CHAIN_FILE} -p {PRIVATE_KEY_FILE} -d {DOMAIN_NAME} 

If you disable any service that binds to 80 port such as Apache Web Server, enable it again

sudo service apache2 start

Make sure that your domain points to your server public IP address in the DNS records

ATTENTION: If port 80 is used by some other process or it's forwarded to some other port, enable_ssl.sh will not be successful. Please disable the process or delete the port forwarding temporarily in running the enable_ssl.sh script above
