Dear DA users,

could anybody please explain me how to solve following warnings? Is it
possible to create new certificate with corrected details?

I am using apache 2.2.3.

Apache Error log

You can create your own certificate or purchase one from the many places that sell them. To create one, do a google search for something similar to "openssl create apache2 certificate" and you should find plenty of pages to explain exactly what you need to do.
