Open up your terminal and execute the below commands, replacing yourdomain.com with the domain name

    mkdir /etc/ssl/wildcard.yourdomain.com
    cd /etc/ssl/wildcard.yourdomain.com/
    openssl genrsa 2048 > host.key
    openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha1 -days 3650 -key host.key > host.cert

For a wildcard cert enter *.yourdomain.com for Common Name. It’s the 6th option in the dialog. All other options can be left blank for defaults

    openssl x509 -noout -fingerprint -text < host.cert > host.info
    cat host.cert host.key > host.pem
    chmod 400 host.key host.pem
