Generate the Certificet Singing Request (.csr) and the ssl.key file:

cd /etc/apache2/
mv certs certs-old
mkdir certs
cd certs
openssl genrsa -out ssl.key 2048
chmod 600 ssl.key
chown www-data:www-data ssl.key
openssl req -new -key ssl.key -out db.uea.org.csr
  #Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:NL
  #State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:Zuid Holland
  #Locality Name (eg, city) []:Rotterdam
  #Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:Universala Esperanto Asocio
  #Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:Centra Oficejo
  #Common Name (eg, YOUR name) []:db.uea.org
  #Email Address []:admin@co.uea.org

Give (copy-paste in text input box) the .csr file to the SSL issuing site. Goddaddy now sends a verification mail, click on the link. Then (after some clicking) .zip file with the cert can be downloaded (choose Apache)

cd /etc/apache2/certs
unzip /tmp/479d27f667c58.zip
mv 479d27f667c58.crt db.uea.org.crt
cp gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt gd_bundle.crt
