Installing the PEAR package manager and Checking if PEAR works

When using PHP >= 4.3.0, the PEAR Package Manager is already installed unless one has used the ./configure option –without-pear.

Verifying command line tool

Both pear and pecl tools should be available everywhere on command line. For that to work, pear’s binary (bin) directory should be in your PATH variable.

To verify it works, simply type pear. A list of commands should be shown:

You should further test that PEAR is up to date:

Installing your SSL Certificate / Web Server Certificate / Secure Server Certificate in Ensim

Your certificate will be sent to you by email after you get that from SSl providers. The email message includes the web server certificate that you purchased in the body of the email message.

Copy the certificate from the body of the email and paste it into a text editor (such as notepad) to create text files. Name this file yourdomain.txt and save it in a convenient place.

These instructions apply for both Ensim Pro and Ensim 3.x.

1. Click SSL Settings - access to this link may differ depending on your version of Ensim:

If you are running Ensim Pro. In the shortcuts section of the Home page, click SSL Settings in the Web Server section:

Or if you are running Ensim 3.x, click the Services link on the left, then click the Edit button for the Apache Web Server service:

2. Then in the Apache Web Server Manager click the SSL Settings link.

Select Import at the bottom of the SSL Settings form.

3. Copy the contents of yourdomain.txt and paste it into the Certificate text box
Be sure to include —–BEGIN CERTIFICATE—– through —–END CERTIFICATE—–

4. Select Save.
5. To make security effective on your domain, restart the Web server. The domain is not secure until you do so.

Test your certificate by using a browser to connect to your server. Use the https protocol directive (e.g. https://your server/) to indicate you wish to use secure HTTP. Note: The padlock icon on your browser will be displayed in the locked position if your certificates are installed correctly and the server is properly configured for SSL.
