Change domain and certificate on On Premise instances – Athento

Athento is installed by default on a subdomain of athento and is installed with a valid Athento certificate; so it is accessible in a url like: https://USUARIO.athento.com

If you wish to modify this configuration and replace it with another domain name, follow the steps below:

Editar /etc/apache2/sites-available/athentose.conf
Replace:

<Host virtual *:80>
ServerName USUARIO.athento.com
Redirección 307 / https://USUARIO.athento.com

Por:

<VirtualHost *:80>
 ServerName NUEVA_URL
 ServerAlias USUARIO.athento.com
 Redirect 307 / https://NUEVA_URL

Replace:

<VirtualHost *:443>
 ServerName USUARIO.athento.com

Por:

<VirtualHost *:443>
 ServerName NUEVA_URL
 ServerAlias USUARIO.athento.com

Change the apache certificates for others (they must be in apache2 standard format):

The athento certificates installed by default are:

SSLCACertificateFile /etc/ssl/athento/gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/athento/athento.key
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/athento/athento.crt

Place, inside /etc/ssl/USER/ the new certificates, and edit the same file /etc/apache2/sites-available/athentose.conf commenting the previous lines and putting the new ones where the certificates have been previously placed:

#SSLCACertificateFile /etc/ssl/athento/gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt
#SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/athento/athento.key
#SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/athento/athento.crt
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/ssl/USUARIO/gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/USUARIO/USUARIO.key
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/USUARIO/USUARIO.crt

PS: Information about the format of apache certificates:

Editing local_settings.py

The installation properties file must be modified so that the default URL that is taken in any case is the new one.

We edit:

 /var/www/athentose/athentose/settings_custom/local_settings.py

Where it said:

SITE_URL = 'https://USUARIO.athento.com'

We put:

#SITE_URL = 'https://USUARIO.athento.com'
SITE_URL = 'https://NUEVA_URL'

It is necessary to restart apache to take all the previous changes:

sudo service apache2 restart

Finally, in Athento, the new domain is configured in the Team:
