2. Notice

Be sure your Windows 10 (64 bit) OS has the latest Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015-2019 installed.

3. Laragon - Updating Apache HTTP service

  • Download the latest Win64-VS16 Apache version from www.apachelounge.com into your \Downloads\ folder.
    The packed file is named for instance httpd-2.4.46-win64-VS16.zip.
  • Unpack the downloaded ZIP archive in a folder with the same name, for instance httpd-2.4.46-win64-VS16.
  • Move all files inside the \httpd-2.4.46-win64-VS16\Apache24\ folder up one level.
    Then delete the (now empty) \Apache24\ folder.
  • Move the complete \httpd-2.4.46-win64-VS16\ folder to the \bin\apache\ folder of your Laragon installation.
  • In the Apache section, select the newly installed Apache version.
  • Laragon will restart the Apache Service using the new version.
  • Now you can remove the previous version by removing its folder from \bin\apache\.

4. Fixing ERR_SSL_KEY_USAGE_INCOMPATIBLE error

After updating to a new Apache version the first time, you’ll notice there’s a problem with SSL access to your projects. The browser will throw an ERR_SSL_KEY_USAGE_INCOMPATIBLE error.

  • Stop the Apache Service
  • Update the next 3 files :
    \laragon\bin\laragon\tpl\openssql.conf.tpl
    \laragon\usr\tpl\openssql.conf.tpl
    \laragon\etc\ssl\openssql.conf
  • In each file, replace the line
    keyUsage = keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment

    by

    keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature, keyEncipherment
  • Then add the Lagaron Certificate to your Windows Trust Store. In the menu, select Apache → SSL → Add laragon.crt to Trust Store.
  • Restart the Apache Service.
