3CX Certificate File

I use to install 3CX on a bare Debian then switching to the Web wizzard.

The installation process on bare Debian is well described on installing-3cx-pbx-on-debian-10 and just for archive purpose (in case the source website is disabled), I paste the main steps here

wget -O - http://downloads-global.3cx.com/downloads/3cxpbx/public.key | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://downloads-global.3cx.com/downloads/debian buster main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/3cxpbx.list
dpkg-reconfigure locales

Then absolutely choose en_US.UTF-8

apt update && apt install 3cxpbx

Now we are going to the web Interface and after entering the licence and some other informations:

Huh!

Not a problem: in fact, you must first generate your server certificate with "certbot". 

Note that "certbot" will need to bind to the port 80 for this to work: temporarily stop "nginx" for that, with:

systemctl stop nginx

You can do it another way, but it is the easiest to me

certbot certonly --standalone -d 3cx.rktmb.org

Of course, 3cx.rktmb.org must be an existing DNS record. Create it then run the command, and you have your certificate.

Start  "nginx" back with:

systemctl start nginx

You will have to upload 2 files:

  1. The "cert.pem" file first
  2. The "privkey.pem" file in the next screen

npm run build base-href

Using NPM to specify base-href When building an Angular application, people usually use "ng" and pass arguments to that invocation. Typically, when wanting to hard code "base-href" in "index.html", one will issue: ng build --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo' I used to build my angular apps through Bamboo or Jenkins and they have a "npm" plugin. I got the habit to build the application with "npm run build" before deploying it. But the development team once asked me to set the "--base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo'" parameter. npm run build --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo did not set the base href in indext.html After looking for a while, I found https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/13560 where it says: You need to use −− to pass arguments to npm scripts. This did the job! The command to issue is then: npm run build -- --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo&
