 ====== Apache Server for this Wiki ======
-The purpose of this page is to document how I set up a web server for this wiki. The original host for this wiki was on deluxehosting.com. Deluxehosting has been a reliable service. I am going to try a moving the content to a standalone server. First will be a private server. Not sure where or when the final resting place will be for the content of this wiki.

The Debian/MxLinux version of Dokuwiki is not up to date and the directory organization is not as describe by the dokuwiki documentation.  Since the installation on Deluxehosting has a directory layout like the dokuwiki documentation, I am not using the dokuwiki package/installation provided by Debina/MxLinux.
-)  The apache configuration went smoothly until I tried to configure the "https" version of the site.    Apache/SSL documentation is complex.   I have not found a "recipe" for a "simple" configuration.  So I found this:  [[https://geekflare.com/apache-setup-ssl-certificate/|/apache-setup-ssl-certificate/]] This looks promising...
