Letsencrypt SSL Setup

I was having issues in AWS with Lets Encrypt SSL so thought I would share the solution I came up with its simple actually but I couldn’t find it on a thread so please delete this if the solution has already been submitted.

Ubuntu 18.04 that has Apache installed with current SSL from Lets Encrypt

After installing Openvas 9 (Version 7.0.3)

Edit /etc/default/openvas-gsa

ALLOW_HEADER_HOST=example.com

SSL_PRIVATE_KEY=/etc/letsencrypt/archive/example.com/privkey1.pem

SSL_CERTIFICATE=/etc/letsencrypt/archive/example.com/cert1.pem

save and restart Openvas

systemctl restart openvas-scanner
systemctl restart openvas-gsa
systemctl restart openvas-manager
