Installing the Certbot Let’s Encrypt Client for NGINX on Amazon Linux 2

Installing the Certbot Let’s Encrypt Client The certbot package is not available through the package manager by default. You will need to enable the  EPEL  repository to install Certbot. sudo yum install epel-release sudo yum install certbot-nginx Set Up NGINX certbot  can automatically configure  NGINX  for SSL/TLS. It looks for and modifies the server block in your  NGINX  configuration that contains a server_name directive with the domain name you’re requesting a certificate for. In our example, the domain is  www.mydomain.com . Assuming you’re starting with a fresh NGINX install, use a text editor to create a file in the  /etc/nginx/conf.d  directory named  domain_name.conf  (so in our example, www.mydomain.com.conf). Specify your domain name (and variants, if any) with the  server_name  directive: server { listen 80 default_server; listen [::]:80 default_server; root /var/www/html; server_name myd...

  Deploy your dynamic Nuxt.js app Nuxt.js is an amazing server side rendering application framework for Vue.js. In this article we will see how to deploy Nuxt.js application to AWS instance in universal app mode. Where in Nuxt.js you can choose between Universal, Static Generated or Single Page application.

But this will not work for universal apps. 1. Build your app To build a ssr app you need to run the following command: npm run build The generated files will not be in the  dist  folder as for the static app, but you can find all generated files in  .nuxt  folder which will be the entry point. 2. Upload to the server There are two ways to do this upload your whole application with the source code or just upload the n...

ERROR psql: error: connection to server at "localhost" (127.0.0.1), port 5433 failed: ERROR: failed to authenticate with backend using SCRAM DETAIL: valid password not found Since Pgpool-II is a PostgreSQL proxy that works between clients and PostgreSQL servers, the authentication comprises two steps: Authentication between client and Pgpool-II Authentication between Pgpool-II and PostgreSQL servers Starting with Pgpool-II 4.0, Pgpool-II supports scram-sha-256 authentication. scram-sha-256 authentication method is strongly recommended because it is the most secure password-based authentication method. Solution 1 If PostgreSQL servers require  MD5  or  SCRAM  authentication for some user’s authentication but the password for that user is not present in  pool_passwd , then enabling  allow_clear_text_frontend_auth  will allow the  Pgpool-II  to use clear-text-password authentication with user to get the password in plain text form from the user ...
