We assume httpd is correctly installed and configured to support SSL.

We will serve Media Wiki as a secure virtual host and a redirecting non-secure host. Edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:

...
<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:443>
    ServerName wiki.novaordis.com:443
    DocumentRoot /var/www/wiki.novaordis.com
    <Directory "/var/www/wiki.novaordis.com">  
        DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php
    </Directory>
    # SSL configuration follows ...
</VirtualHost>
...

Understand why I needed to: "Require all granted" under <Directory "/var/www/wiki.novaordis.com"> .

Restart httpd:

systemctl restart httpd

Mac

Edit /opt/brew/etc/httpd/httpd.conf and add at the bottom:

<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:443>
    ServerName wiki.novaordis.com:443
    DocumentRoot /var/www/wiki.novaordis.com
    <Directory "/var/www/wiki.novaordis.com">  
        DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php
    </Directory>
    # SSL configuration follows ...
</VirtualHost>

Restart httpd:

brew services restart httpd
