ask:How to solve this problem?

答:throughChen WeiliangThe test found that it was because the suPHP_UserGroup user group was not added in the Apache configuration file.

Examples

<Directory "/home/xx/public_html">
 AllowOverride All
 suPHP_UserGroup xx xx
</Directory>

Here is the complete information for Apache to configure SSL (note to uncomment and change the path to your own):

<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot /home/admin/web/chenweiliang.com/public_html //网站目录
ServerName www.chenweiliang.com:443 //域名
ServerAdmin [email protected] //邮箱
ErrorLog "/var/log/www.chenweiliang.com-error_log" //错误日志
CustomLog "/var/log/www.chenweiliang.com-access_log" common //访问日志
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.chenweiliang.com/fullchain.pem //之前生成的证书
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.chenweiliang.com/privkey.pem //之前生成的密钥
<Directory "/home/admin/web/chenweiliang.com/public_html"> //网站目录
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
suPHP_UserGroup eloha eloha //用户组（有些服务器配置需要，有些可能不需要，出错请删除此行）
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
DirectoryIndex index.html index.phps
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Finally restart apache on it:

service httpd restart
