Re: enable ssl

[Martin Pala]

… yet the workaround: you can use HTTPS proxy, so for example monit GUI can be still running HTTP and if you'll need SSL, you'll access it via the HTTPS proxy.

For example the configuration for Apache:

<VirtualHost _default_:443>

        SSLEngine on

        ProxyPass /monit/ http://1.2.3.4:2812/

        ProxyPassReverse /monit/ http://1.2.3.4:2812/

        <Location /monit/>

                Order deny,allow

                Allow from all

        </Location>

…

You can then access it via https://<proxy>/monit/

Hi Nick,

monit does either http or https, not both at once. The "ssl enable" switches the HTTP interface into HTTPS.

Hi,

I want to run monit with https and http available at the same time, the manual seems to imply that this can be done by saying "can also start ... with ssl support"
but when I add this line to the config, http stops working.

a) can anyone confirm this is the case

b) is there a way round it

If you have compiled Monit with openssl, you can also start the httpd server with ssl support, using the following _expression_:

 set httpd port 2812
     ssl enable
     pemfile /etc/certs/monit.pem
