I have a Docker, Django api application that can be called from multiple domains abc.xyx.com or def.lmn.com. I have added successfully the ssl certificate for abc.xyz.com from the configuration console in elastic beanstalk. That allows only one certificate to be added for 443 port.
How do i add the def.lmn.com certificate after creating it from aws certificate manager?
Multiple SSL secured applications can be hosted in aws with each having their own SSL certificates with the help of SNI (Server Name Indication).
In order to achieve this you need to use an Application Load Balancer for your application.
Hence, for using SNI you need to bind multiple certificates to the same listener on your Application Load Balancer.
If you have not configured Application Load Balancer while creating your environment, then you need to create a new environment and configure it.
Configuring Application Load Balancer: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/environments-cfg-alb.html
Steps to be followed for adding multiple certificates, if you have configured Application Load Balancer while creating your Elastic Beanstalk Environment :
Step 1: Import/Upload all the certificates you require through “AWS Certificate Manager” service.
Step 2: Open your Load Balancer in the console.
Step 3: Go to the listeners tab, and select “view/edit certificates” .
Step 4: Now, use the “+” button in the top left corner and select the certificates you require. Then click the “Add” button.
That's it. In this way you can add multiple certificates to your application.
This can also done with the help of CLI using the following command:
aws elbv2 add-listener-certificates --listener-arn [listener-arn] --certificates CertificateArn=[cert-arn]
Hope this helps :)
You need to use an application load balancer instead of an elastic for your application. If you have an environment that already exists and you are not using an application load balancer then you need to create a new environment and while configuring the new environment specify the capacity as load balanced and select an application load balancer in the load balancer configuration. Once this is done then add a new listener for https. For now, select one certificate and launch your environment. Once your environment is launched, open the EC2 console and go to the loadbalancer in the sidebar. From there select your application loadbalancer, select your listener and click on view certificates. You can add multiple certificates, there.

I have a domain purchased at 1and1 and set up at AWS EC2 with SSL and Apache server.
Even the domain pointing to the correct IP (using nslookup I can see it), it works from some places and not from others.
For example, here from my workplace, I see this page (the domain does not reach the EC2 server):
I launched a Windows EC2 at AWS to make a test and from there, everything is correct (the page loads and SSL is valid):
From my client's computer, it has another behavior. It reaches the EC2 server, but is says the SSL is invalid:
Has anyone faced the same problem?
The first thing you need to do is get an Elastic IP, the instance IP can change during reboot etc but elastic IP are static IP’s so you should make sure you create one of them and assign it your running instance.

I'm trying to use my aws certificate with elastic load balancer on my EC2 instance which has Apache. I followed this tutorial http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/classic/elb-getting-started.html#configure-health-check to create my classic load balancer.After that creation everything looks right in my load balancer console . But when i try to browse my website with https instead of http chrome says connection is not secure. When i look inside of certificate from browser i see that certificate published by localhost.
So is there any additional configuration that i have to do like in my httpd-ssl.conf file or something else? By the way all this services are in the same region.(Frankfurt)
Thanks George!!! Route DNS to ELB is the key point. Since you sent that comment i had been working on it. Now i got it! Here is the link of routing DNS to ELB;

I'm not the most advanced AWS user there is, and have come across a bit of a roadblock.
I've got 2 Elastic Beanstalk Environments, each with a Load Balancer, 2 EC2 instances and they share a RDS instance. One environment is for Development and the other for Production.
I have purchased a wildcard SSL certificate from Thawte, and would like to install it on both the Development and Production environments. I've gone through other threads about adding SSL certificates in AWS, but the admin interface has changed since they were written so I've been going round in circles trying to figure it out.
Also, do I install the same SSL certificate on both Load Balancers? Or is it a case of only having one load balancer and redirecting traffic depending on the domain?
Thanks
You will need two load balancers, one for each environment. For uploading the certificate, it sounds like you are creating your Beanstalk environment through the console. In that case, after you create the environment, go to the EC2 tab, then 'Load Balancers', then 'Listeners'. Edit that, change the protocol to https. You'll see there is a place to change the certificate:
That will give you a place to upload the certificate:
Now that the cert is there, you can use the Elastic Beanstalk configuration to change future environments to use that cert:
The site works perfectly fine on HTTP, however, does not work on HTTPS.
I've followed all the steps on this page to create a self-signed certificate and add it to my Elastic Beanstalk environment.
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/configuring-https.html
I'm also getting a successful certificate response back from IAM using the following command:
aws iam get-server-certificate --server-certificate-name
After updating Elastic Beanstalk with the certificate, I've also added add a rule to the security group that allows inbound traffic from 0.0.0.0/0 to port 443.
Finally, I've also validated that my load-balancer listener has HTTPS set up correctly.
In spite of all that, my calls to https is not resolving, while http is working perfectly fine.
Any other thoughts on this? Any help would be much appreciated.
Please let me know if you need any more information. Desperately looking for some insight/help into this.
Anyway, not being able to resolve this issue with my site/code, I tried to set up HTTPS on the sample site provided on Elastic Beanstalk. Interestingly enough, even that is not working.
I want to provide an update that I was finally able to resolve the issue.
The root-cause was because I missed to set up an Inbound Rule for the Security Group of the Load Balancer.
For whatever reason, when I read the documentation, I understood that the Inbound Rule needed to be set up for the Security Group of the Instance (and not the Load Balancer). Only after I started tracing the Load Balancer did I realize that I should perhaps try setting up the Rule for the Security Group of the Load Balancer. So, the problem is resolved. Below is the setting I used.
HTTPS 443 HTTP 80 <name of the certificate>
I'd have to say that the documentation could be a bit more clear to clearly identify the change required to the Security Group of the Load Balancer (and not the Instance).
Amazon recently released AWS Certificate Manager :
Go to https://console.aws.amazon.com/acm/home
Add your domain and validate it by email
After the certificate is issued, deploy it to your Elastic Load Balancers following the steps (and easily setup your security groups)
It's event better for a performance point of view:
Because ELB supports SSL offload, deploying a certificate to a load
balancer (rather than to the EC2 instances behind it) will reduce the
amount of encryption and decryption work that the instances need to
handle.

I can't believe this...but it goes to show how bad the AWS console is...I had to scroll down and click "Apply" on an invisible button when it shows "Pending create" after add making me think it's working...facepalm.
Hello i was had like this and i follow this steps and works to me:
Generate certificate
the first thing is request a Request certificate on AWS Certificate Manager (ACM)
take a look on this video to create a new one https://youtu.be/bWPTq8z1vFY
Configurations of the Elastic Beanstalk
on the configuration -> load balancer
create a new listener:
in this step i get this :
Creat a new record on route 53
so i use route53 to host my site
go to route 53 ->select your host zone and create a new record
choose the option of alias to select your route traffic in your case Elastic Beanstalk, your region and the name of your application
this works if you use route 53 and EB but in other host providers i thing i woiuld work too.
We want to use Amazon Elastic BeanStalk service for deployment in EC2 Boxes.
We want to deploy our Ruby on Rails Application in such a way that we can do sub-domain based routing to different rails app.
And we want to use single SSL Certificate for our load balancer and want to configure our load balancer in susch a away tha subdomain based routing takes place.
HA Proxy does this work well but when we are trying to use Amazon Elastic BeanStalk service for our deployment, aws creates a load balancer but didn't associate it with any Key-Pair.
So we are not able to ssh in load balancer and add our configuration for subdomain based routing.
Can someone please point me to some solution ?
Thanks,
Ankit.
You don't SSH into AWS load balancers, they are basically a black box that you have only a limited set of configuration options for. You probably need to look at the Route 53 services for DNS routing.
Your configuration would have routing based on domain DNS to different load balancers, one for each separate service you need. You can't have a single ELB route traffic to different EC2 instances based on domain or URI fragments.
