I have a Global accelerator connected to elastic beanstalk in 3 regions(US, AU, EU).
The issue is whenever I hit the global accelerator it responds with the certificate of the ALB thats connected to the elastic beanstalk which causes the browser to block the response saying incorrect common name.
Each ALB has its own seperate url eg: server-au.domain.com, server-eu.domain.com.
Global accelerator has its own custom domain name and ssl. How do we make sure that the certificate of global accelerator is passed instead of where the request is forwarded to?
All certificates are handled by AWS certificate manager and dns records by Route 53.
You can add multiple certificates for the elastic beanstalk under load balancer of ec2 settings.

I have a node js app deployed onto EC2 instance running on port 300 and it is exposed to internet via port 80 & 443 via http load balancers.
My security group allows inbound rules on 80 & 443. I have created SSL certificates with ACM for a domain created on GoDaddy (domain name:- www.abcd-example.com).
For CNAME I added these values, Host(Name): _57xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx5d, Points to(value): _68xxxxxxxxxxx67.bxxxxxxxxxxxj.acm-validations.aws.
My ACM certificate was issued and I had loaded these certificate on to load balancer. Now when I try to access the load balancer with https://, I am getting this error : NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID.
I am not sure why this is happening as I had followed all the steps mentioned in AWS docs to dot. Can anyone help me out in this?
I am trying to configure my website to have a secure connection (https://) via Amazon's EC2, ELB, and Route 53.
I am running a t2.micro instance (no Elastic IP or anything). My Elastic Load Balancer has the SSL certificate attached. My SecurityGroup allows for https connections through port 443. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here.
All of my configurations are below. Any help is appreciated because, as it stands, I can't access my website at all.
Thank you in advance!
EC2 - - -
Load Balancer - - -
Route 53 - - -
Step 1: Hit the EC2 instance directly and verify that the health check URL responds with an HTTP 200 status code. If not, then get that working first.
You aren't clear about your security group configuration. You should have a security group on your load balancer that allows HTTP and HTTPS connections. Then you should have a security group on your EC2 instance that allows HTTP (port 80) connections from the load balancer's group.
The issue is obviously the failing health check on the load balancer at this point, so no need to look at Route 53 settings right now. You need to concentrate on getting the communication working between the EC2 instance and the load balancer to get that health check to start working. Until then the load balancer won't accept any traffic because it doesn't have instances it considers healthy that it can forward traffic to.
I have a PHP app deployed on Elastic Beanstalk, currently with a single instance behind a load balancer and am attempting to enable SSL. The current configuration is as follows:
-I've uploaded my certs to IAM successfully
-On the EB Console Load Balancer config "Listener Port" is off, "Secure Listener Port" is "443", and "Protocol" is set to "HTTPS"
-In my Loadbalancer, accessed through the EC2 console, Load Balancer Port/Protocol 443/HTTPS and Instance Port/Protocol is 80/HTTP (the default HTTP/80 HTTP/80 listener is still there but i've tried removing it to no joy)
-My security groups for both the load balancer and the instance are configured the same: Inbound is allowing all connections from either security group, plus inbound http on 80 and https on 443 (source= 0.0.0.0/0)
When attempting to access the url https://myurl.com, I get 503 service unavailable (server at capacity). I suspect there is an issue with my security group configuration, but can't figure out what it is (have tried referring to this thread).
Any Ideas?
I just experienced this on my ElasticBeanstalk deployment and the reason was that my elastic load balancer had 0 healthy instances in service. There's different health check settings, one that checks over HTTP:80 and one that checks over TCP:80. I haven't investigated thoroughly but for some reason the HTTP:80 setting will result in my servers being marked as unhealthy, but TCP:80 will test correctly. If this comes up again I would suggest looking in there?
Background:
I had 1 instance created for EC2
I had my domain pointing to this instance
I had SSL installed for this instance (things were running great)
Furthermore:
I opted to create a second instance (using custom AMI from first instance)
I create a load balancer (things were working great -- from what i can tell...)
Question:
Why do I need to install the SSL certificate on the load balancer when it seems to have already been working?
I would presume when you say load balancer, you are refering to AWS ELB. If this is no the case, then disregard my answer.
Well the Best practice is to install SSL certs on load balancer and do the SSL termination there. Let the load balacner do SSL encryption/decryption so that your web server can do what they do the BEST...serving hte web pages.
Why do I need to install the SSL certificate on the load balancer
Now, technically You set is fine and you don't have to install SSL on load balancer. But then you have to use TCP Load Balancing feature of AWS ELB where in ELB will simply accespt traffic on 443 and will forward it to Web servers on 443. And then let your web servers do the SSL work.
I think this what you are looking for.
I am attempting to get my domain (assetfarm.com.au) to use SSL. I have created a certificate and uploaded it to IAM. I associated it with my ElasticBeanstalk configuration.
I am also attempting to use Route 53 for my domain. Here are my current settings:
I'm using a self-signed certificate just to check that the issue wasn't with the certificate GoDaddy generated. Despite following the instructions on Amazon step-by-step, I am still unable to visit https://www.assetfarm.com.au or https://assetfarm.com.au. I can't even visit https with the elastic beanstalk or load balancer URL.
Please check your ELB Security Group for Port 443.
For some new AWS accounts, you may need to open Port 443 manually.
