In a nut shell, here are the activities.

1. Make and install the apache with --enable-ssl
2. Edit the httpd-ssl.conf with certificate details
[ You can either create a self signed certificate or get a certificate from Verisign/Thwarte etc]
You have to make the certificate chain with .pem format files and include the path in https-ssl.conf
3. Make sure the Include conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf is uncommented in the httpd.conf
4. Make sure the following Block is uncommented

<IfModule ssl_module>
SSLRandomSeed startup builtin
SSLRandomSeed connect builtin
</IfModule>

ssl_ctx_add_extra_chain_cert

SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3) 				      OpenSSL					   SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)

NAME

       SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert - add certificate to chain

SYNOPSIS

	#include <openssl/ssl.h>

	long SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(SSL_CTX ctx, X509 *x509)

DESCRIPTION

       SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() adds the certificate x509 to the certificate chain presented together with the certificate. Several certifi-
       cates can be added one after the other.

NOTES

       When constructing the certificate chain, the chain will be formed from these certificates explicitly specified. If no chain is specified,
       the library will try to complete the chain from the available CA certificates in the trusted CA storage, see SSL_CTX_load_verify_loca-
       tions(3).

RETURN VALUES

       SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() returns 1 on success. Check out the error stack to find out the reason for failure otherwise.
